Market Dynamics
The increasing need to develop ecologically sustainable acid to gain more yield in agriculture is expected to boost the demand for humic acid in the coming years. Moreover, the ability of humic acid to nourish the plant root system, and boost the immune system in human beings are expected to fuel its demand in the coming years. Thus, humic acid is largely being used for the production of dietary supplements. For instance, according to an article published on January 10, 2025 by Invest India, a National Investment Promotion & Facilitation Agency, the market for dietary supplements is estimated to exhibit a CAGR of 17% from 2025 to 2025. Moreover, as per the report on ‘Prospects for Humic Acid Products from Digestate in the Netherlands’ published by Wageningen University & Research in December 2025, the usage of 1.5-3 kg/ha of humic acid for tomato, onion, and potato crops seemed to provide the required nourishment. Thus, the adoption of humic acid is expected to gain significant momentum across the agricultural sector in the coming years.
Impact of Covid-19
The global humic acid market has been negatively impacted to some extent due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This can be attributed to the imposition of lockdowns, travel restrictions, and shutting down of manufacturing facilities. Moreover, the unavailability of fertilizers and chemicals required for farming had further hampered the demand for humic acid. However, restarting of international trade and ease of trade restrictions is expected to fuel the demand for humic acid in the coming years. Moreover, the loosening of restrictions and reopening of manufacturing facilities is also expected to boost demand for humic acid during the post-pandemic period.
