Based on type, the silage inoculants segment is estimated to account for the largest share in the inoculants market in 2019.The silage inoculants segment accounts for the largest share in the inoculants market.

Sales of silage inoculants are on rise due to the expansion of the livestock industry in emerging countries across regions.Urbanization has increased the sales of animal-based products, such as milk, eggs, and meat.

With the rise in prices of feed grains, agricultural inoculants serve as a suitable alternative.

The fungal segment is projected to record the fastest growth during the forecast period.
Fungal inoculants help plants to absorb phosphorus and other nutrients for use.Mycorrhizal fungi live in plant roots and are well-known for their ability to provide phosphorus to plants.

The demand for fungal microbes is projected to increase in the coming years, with the rise in organic farming practices at a global level.
The South American inoculants market is projected to witness significant growth.

The South American inoculants market is projected to account for the largest share by 2025.Countries such as Brazil and Argentina are the largest country-level markets in the Latin American region.

Both these countries are the major producers of soybean.Agricultural inoculants are widely used for soybean crops, and hence, the consumption of inoculants is projected to increase in the next five years.

It is one of the largest regions that has adequate organic agricultural land area, due to which the demand for agricultural inoculants remains high in this region.
