Key content of this market:
The European crop protection chemicals market is facing saturation in demand, owing to a strong push for organic farming and reduction of synthetic pesticides. Also, demand in the European Union is particularly poor owing to the strict regulatory framework adopted by REACH. Since 2006, REACH has been constantly reviewing all registered and commercialized active ingredients, which has resulted in the ban of high-usage pesticides such as atrazine.

Phased out active ingredient
Old synthetic pesticides are being constantly phased out and the costs of developing and registering new pesticides have increased by 35% in the last decade. In addition, organic food has been rapidly gaining popularity in Europe; this is expected to further hamper the demand for crop protection chemicals in the coming years.
Decreasing arable land
Arable land in Europe has also been marginally reducing in the last few years.
