Europe Fungicide Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report (2025-2034)

Europe Fungicide Market Growth

In 2023, Europe’s agriculture industry produced EUR 275.8 billion worth of crops, including cereals, vegetables, and horticultural plants. This constituted a share of nearly 51.3% of the EU’s total agricultural output. France was the leading agricultural producer in Europe (EUR 96 billion), followed by Germany (EUR 76.6 billion), and Italy (EUR 71.9 billion). This is expected to drive the demand for fungicides in Europe over the forecast period.

During 2011-2020, annual pesticide sales in Europe remained relatively stable (at around 350,000 tons) while recording an annual fluctuation of ± 6%. This is attributed to varying crop seasons and harvests, besides governmental programs that aim at boosting the productivity of the agricultural sector. In 2020, fungicides and bactericides accounted for 43% of overall pesticide sales, due to increasing demand for inorganic fungicides (containing inorganic sulphur, copper compounds, and other chemicals permitted in organic farming).

Germany, Italy, France, and Spain witnessed the highest sales of fungicides, coupled with countries like Austria and Latvia, where pesticide sales surged by over 60% since 2011. In 2020, countries such as Hungary, Cyprus, and the Netherlands, among 13 others, accounted for over 67% of overall pesticide sales in Europe. This is creating a favourable market outlook for fungicides, especially with increasing gains in agricultural productivity.

Europe Fungicide Market Trends

The introduction of innovative modes of fungicide application is driving the market revenue. The soaring appeal for foliar spray has emerged as a key market trend since it promotes healthy plant growth and minimises the wastage of resources. By delivering liquid fertilisers and fungicides directly to plant leaves, they facilitate rapid nutrient absorption and reduce the risk of nutritional deficiencies in plants. They also ensure effective pest management and deliver results more quickly as compared to soil-based applications.
