How Are Key Drivers in the Industry Acting as Catalysts for the Growth of the compost Market?

The compost market is experiencing significant growth due to the escalating demand for organic farming products. Organic farming involves the cultivation of products sans synthetic insecticides, chemical fertilizers, growth hormones, antibiotics and synthetic pesticides. The COVID-19 pandemic saw a surge in the demand for organic food, as people have started to prefer food that bolsters immunity and health. Organic products, which are known to be of high quality and environmentally friendly, often use compost to improve soil fertility. For instance, a February 2024 report by IFOAM – Organics International, a Germany-based organization, and FiBL, a Switzerland-based research institute, showed that the world’s organic farming area expanded by over 20 million hectares to reach 96 million hectares in 2022. This included over 4.5 million organic producers and approximately 135 billion euros of organic food sales. Thus, the compost market’s growth is likely to be propelled by the rising demand for organic farm products in the future.
