U.S. Biostimulants Market Size Worth USD 1,025.45 Million by 2034 | CAGR: 6.8%


The U.S. biostimulants market size is expected to reach USD 1,025.45 million by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “U.S. Biostimulants Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Active Ingredient (Acid Based, Seaweed Extract, Microbial, Others), By Crop Type, By Application – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

The U.S. biostimulants market refers to the segment of the agricultural industry focused on products that, when applied to plants, seeds, or the area around plant roots, work to improve natural processes. These products are distinct from fertilizers, which provide nutrients, and pesticides, which control pests. Instead, biostimulants enhance a plant's ability to take in and use nutrients, increase its tolerance to various environmental stresses such as drought or heat, and ultimately improve overall crop quality and yield. This market encompasses a range of active ingredients, including humic and fulvic acids, seaweed extracts, and various beneficial microorganisms.

The U.S. biostimulants market is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing demand for sustainable farming practices, as farmers aim to reduce their environmental footprint and promote healthier soil ecosystems. This aligns with a rising consumer preference for organic and naturally grown food products, which encourages growers to adopt solutions that minimize synthetic chemical use. Additionally, the growing challenges posed by climate change, such as more frequent and severe droughts or temperature extremes, are pushing farmers to seek products that enhance crop resilience. Technological advancements in biostimulant formulation and application methods are also contributing to the market's expansion, making these products more effective and accessible to a wider range of growers.

U.S. Biostimulants Market Report Highlights

  • By active ingredient, the acid-based biostimulants segment held the largest share in 2024. Their widespread use is attributed to their established effectiveness in improving nutrient uptake and enhancing soil structure across various crops.
  • By crop type, the row crops and cereals segment held the largest share in 2024, mainly because of the vast areas dedicated to growing crops such as corn, wheat, and soybeans across the country. The significant acreage means that even small improvements in yield or plant health from biostimulants translate into considerable overall demand for these products.
  • By application, the foliar treatment held the largest share in 2024. This involves spraying biostimulant solutions directly onto plant leaves, allowing for quick absorption and visible benefits to plant health and nutrient use efficiency.
  • A few key players in the market include BASF SE, Bayer AG, Corteva Agriscience, Syngenta Group (China National Chemical Corporation), UPL Corporation, FMC Corporation, Novozymes A/S, Brandt Consolidated, Acadian Seaplants Limited, Lallemand Inc., Seipasa SA, and Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.
