Summary

India Organic Fertilizer Market was valued at USD 432.21 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 670.85 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 7.56% during the forecast period. The India Organic Fertilizer Market is driven by increasing awareness of sustainable farming, government initiatives promoting organic agriculture, and rising demand for chemical-free food. Consumers are shifting towards organic products due to health concerns, pushing farmers to adopt organic fertilizers. Additionally, soil degradation from excessive chemical fertilizer use has encouraged the transition to organic alternatives, which improve soil health and productivity. The Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) and other subsidy programs support farmers in adopting organic practices. Growth in organic farming exports and the expansion of e-commerce for organic produce further fuel market demand. Technological advancements in biofertilizers and vermicomposting also play a role in market expansion, making organic fertilizers a key component of sustainable agriculture in India.
Key Market Drivers
Growing Awareness of Sustainable Farming Practices
The increasing awareness about the adverse effects of chemical fertilizers on soil health and the environment has significantly contributed to the rise of organic fertilizers in India. Farmers and agricultural experts have realized that excessive use of synthetic fertilizers leads to soil degradation, reduced fertility, and long-term yield losses. Organic fertilizers, derived from plant and animal waste, help maintain soil structure, improve microbial activity, and enhance water retention capacity. Awareness campaigns by government agencies, NGOs, and agricultural institutions have further educated farmers on the benefits of organic fertilizers, creating a shift towards sustainable and eco-friendly farming methods. In October 2021, Khetiwalo introduced ‘a diverse range of organic fertilizers priced competitively with chemical alternatives. Among them, Dharti Shakti 50kg serves as a complete replacement for Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DAP) fertilizer. Developed by Khetiwalo Organics and Agro Technologies, these natural, eco-friendly fertilizers aim to support farmers while promoting sustainable agriculture. Dharti Shakti is specifically formulated to enhance soil health, enriched with natural nitrogen and phosphorus, ensuring long-term pH balance and improved fertility.
In addition, workshops, training programs, and farmer-to-farmer knowledge-sharing initiatives have helped in disseminating information on organic farming techniques. Farmers who have successfully transitioned to organic agriculture often serve as role models for others, reinforcing the advantages of using organic fertilizers. Digital platforms and social media campaigns have also played a crucial role in raising awareness, with influencers and agricultural experts advocating for the long-term benefits of sustainable practices. With growing environmental concerns, organic fertilizers have become a key component of regenerative agriculture, ensuring that future generations have access to productive and healthy farmland.
Key Market Challenges
High Cost of Organic Fertilizers
Organic fertilizers are generally more expensive than conventional chemical fertilizers, making it difficult for small and marginal farmers to afford them. The higher cost of production, processing, and certification adds to the overall expense, limiting the adoption of organic fertilizers on a large scale. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, which are mass-produced and subsidized by the government, organic fertilizers require more labor-intensive processes such as composting, vermiculture, and microbial inoculation. The cost of raw materials, including animal manure, plant residues, and bio-waste, is also relatively high due to limited large-scale commercial production. Additionally, the lack of economies of scale in the organic fertilizer industry further contributes to the high costs, as most production units operate on a smaller scale compared to chemical fertilizer manufacturers.
Another factor contributing to the high cost is the investment required for organic certification, which is necessary to comply with regulatory standards and gain consumer trust. Farmers must follow strict guidelines, conduct periodic testing, and undergo audits to maintain their organic status, all of which incur significant expenses. This financial burden discourages many small-scale farmers from transitioning to organic farming. Although government subsidies and financial aid programs exist to support organic farming, they are often insufficient or inaccessible to all farmers. Without additional financial incentives or subsidies, the high cost of organic fertilizers remains a major challenge in the industry.
Key Market Trends
Expansion of Organic Farming and Exports
India has emerged as a major player in the global organic farming sector, with an increasing number of farmers and agribusinesses engaging in organic cultivation. The demand for Indian organic products in international markets, especially in Europe and the United States, has led to increased adoption of organic farming methods. The government’s support for organic exports, along with certification assistance and quality control measures, has boosted the production and use of organic fertilizers. As more farmers participate in organic supply chains, the domestic organic fertilizer market is expected to grow rapidly. In July 2023, the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) has developed technologies for the rapid composting of on-farm renewable resources, offering a valuable source of organic fertilizers. Additionally, enriched compost varieties such as phosphor-nitro and phosphor-sulpho compost have been formulated for agricultural use as organic fertilizers. Under the All India Network Project on Soil Biodiversity and Bio-fertilizers, ICAR has also developed specialized bio-fertilizers tailored for different crops, further promoting sustainable farming practices.
The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) has played a key role in promoting Indian organic products in global markets. Export demand for organic spices, tea, rice, pulses, and medicinal plants has encouraged farmers to transition to organic farming. To meet international quality standards, farmers are investing in organic fertilizers that improve soil health and enhance crop quality. Additionally, export incentives and streamlined certification processes are reducing barriers for Indian organic farmers. As global demand for organic products rises, India’s organic fertilizer industry will continue to expand to support this growing market.
