DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5hv5gs/global_sdhi) has announced the addition of the "Global SDHI Fungicide Market - Growth, Trends and Forecasts (2015 - 2020)" report to their offering.
Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors, otherwise referred to as SDHI fungicides, are a nearly four decade old innovation which has started to gain prominence since 2003. The 2014 global market for SDHI fungicides was valued at $2,721 million and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% to mature into a $4,046.6 million market by 2020.
One of the major drivers of the SDHI fungicides market is the increasing demand for cereal and meat based products. Every day it is estimated that the world adds nearly 200,000 people to its food market and the population is expected to rise to 9.2 billion by 2050, well underscoring the need to develop specialized chemicals and formulations. Reflective of this is the estimated increase in calorie intake of individuals, which is expected to reach 3050 kcal per person by 2050, a significant rise from the 2005 value of 2770 kcal.
Cereals, which are the main target crop for SDHIs, are crucial in this regard with nearly 50% of the global calorie intake dependent on them. This combined with the new farming techniques and willingness of farmers to take on additional risk has changed the R&D infrastructure and priorities and ushered in a whole set of efficient SDHIs.
The restraints provided are based on the issues of environmental and health hazard posed by use of pesticides and fungicides; the relative newness of the products also dictates a tougher policy until their mode of action is fully understood. The production of SDHIs is also a capital intensive process albeit a worthy investment according to various sources. Even in a low disease pressure year, the returns remained high based on wheat disease specialists.
