They provide vital nutrients like phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and copper. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, organic variants break down gradually in the soil, ensuring a steady nutrient supply and enhancing soil texture and fertility by increasing organic matter content.
The growing popularity of organic farming practices, supported by rising consumer awareness and favorable government policies, is a key driver propelling market demand. Leading players in this sector include Darling Ingredients Inc., Yara International ASA, Hello Nature (Italpollina S.p.A.), and others.
