RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

This research study involved the extensive use of secondary sources directories and databases such as Bloomberg Businessweek and Factiva—to identify and collect information useful for a technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the agricultural surfactants market. In-depth interviews were conducted with various primary respondents—such as key industry participants, subject matter experts (SMEs), C-level executives of key market players, and industry consultants—to obtain and verify critical qualitative and quantitative information as well as to assess prospects.

Secondary Research

This research study of agricultural surfactants market involved the extensive use of secondary sources—directories and databases such as Bloomberg Businessweek and Factiva—to identify and collect valuable information for a technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the agricultural adjuvants market.

In the secondary research process, sources such as annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies, white papers, food journals, certified publications, articles from recognized authors, gold & silver standard websites, directories, and databases, were referred to identify and collect information. This research study involved the extensive use of secondary sources—directories and databases such as Bloomberg Businessweek and Factiva—to identify and collect information useful for a technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the agricultural adjuvants market.

Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information about the industry’s supply chain, the total pool of key players, and market classification and segmentation as per the industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from both market- and technology-oriented perspectives.

Primary Research

Extensive primary research was conducted after obtaining information regarding the agricultural adjuvants market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand and supply sides across major countries of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South America. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts, such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), Directors from business development, marketing, research, and development teams, and related key executives from distributors and key opinion leaders. Primary interviews were conducted to gather insights such as market statistics, data on revenue collected from the products and services, market breakdowns, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation. Primary research also helped understand the formulation, adoption stage, functions, crop types, application, and regional trends. Stakeholders from the demand side, such as dealers, distributors, farmers, and government authorities who are using agricultural adjuvants, were interviewed to understand the buyer’s perspective on the suppliers, products, and their current usage of agricultural adjuvants and future outlook of their business which will affect the overall market.

Agricultural Surfactants Market Size Estimation

The following approaches represent the overall market size estimation process employed for the purpose of this study.

Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were used to estimate and validate the total size of the market. These approaches were also used extensively to estimate the size of various dependent submarkets. The research methodology used to estimate the market size includes the following:

Top-down Approach:

• The key players in the industry and the market were identified through extensive secondary research.
• The revenues of major agricultural surfactant manufacturers were determined through primary and secondary research, such as paid databases, which were used as the basis for market estimation.
• Based on the market share analysis of key industry players from all regions, the final market size of the agricultural surfactants market has been arrived at.

Bottom-up Approach:

• Based on the share of agricultural surfactants for each application at regional and country levels, the market sizes were analyzed. Thus, with a bottom-up approach to the application at the country level, the global market for agricultural surfactants was estimated.
• Based on the demand for applications, offerings of key players, and the region-wise market share of major players, the global market for applications was estimated.
• Other factors considered include the penetration rate of agricultural surfactants, the demand for sustainable crop protection solutions, consumer awareness, functional trends, the adoption rate, patents registered, and organic & inorganic growth attempts.
• From this, market sizes for each region were derived.
• All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns were determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources.
• All macroeconomic and microeconomic factors affecting the growth of the agricultural surfactants market were considered while estimating the market size.
• All parameters that affect the market covered in this research study were accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, verified through primary research, and analyzed to obtain final quantitative and qualitative data.

The following sections (bottom-up & top-down) (supply-demand) depict the overall market size estimation process employed for this study.

Agricultural Surfactants Market Data Triangulation

After arriving at the global market size from the estimation process explained above, the total market was split into various segments and subsegments. The data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed, wherever applicable, to estimate the market and arrive at the exact statistics for all segments and subsegments. The data was triangulated by studying a range of factors and trends from the demand and supply sides. Additionally, the market size was validated using both the top-down and bottom-up approaches.

Agricultural Surfactants Market Definition

According to UPL, agricultural surfactants are activators that improve performance by enhancing surface contact, decreasing runoff, and improving leaf penetration. Non-ionic surfactants, anionic surfactants, and cationic surfactants are the three types of surfactants, with the first two being utilized on crops.  Non-ionic surfactants lower the surface tension of water molecules, allowing droplets to cover a larger surface area of the leaf. Anionic surfactants, on the other hand, interact with water to improve foaming and spreading.

The University of Georgia states that ‘Surfactants are adjuvants that facilitate and accentuate the emulsifying, dispersing, spreading, wetting, or other surface modifying properties of liquids.’ There are different chemistries of agricultural surfactants such as Ethoxylated fatty amines (Cationic), Alkylphenol ethoxylate-based surfactants (non-ionic), Alcohol ethoxylate-based surfactants (non-ionic), and Silicone-Based Surfactants as proposed by USDA.
