By nutrient type, nitrogenous fertilizers segment to dominate the NPK fertilizers market between 2020 and 2025
Nitrogenous fertilizers contain nitrogen in the ammonia, ammonium nitrate, nitrate, and amide forms. Nitrate form is required by most crop plants, while paddy requires nitrogen in ammonical form. Nitrate fertilizers are readily soluble in water and are quickly available for plant uptake. Amide fertilizers include urea, which contains high nitrogen and is used for acidifying soils. Nitrogenous fertilizers are effective in increasing crop productivity, especially in irrigated agriculture, where the soils do not contain enough nitrogen.

"By crop type, fruits & vegetables segment to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period."
The fruits & vegetables segment is projected to witness the highest CAGR in the NPK fertilizers market during the forecast period. The harvesting of fruits and vegetables is a highly labor-intensive activity. The COVID-19 outbreak has affected harvesting and production due to labor shortages. For instance, in the US, the H-2A visa program, which brings some 200,000 foreign workers to US farms each year, will not provide access to workers needed to harvest fruits and vegetables in the southern and western states of the US. Transportation bottlenecks are affecting the local supply chain of fruits and vegetables.
