The Asia Pacific to Lead the Global Potassium Sulphate Industry

The Asia Pacific region dominates the global market for potassium sulphate and is expected to expand at a substantial pace over the forecast period. The rise in population and the growing food demand, especially in China, India, and Indonesia, are the major growth drivers. Due to saline soil quality and recurrent droughts, development in the Middle East and Africa is predicted to be the slowest. The government has already taken steps to change the situation, and opportunities could be available in the near future. The use of potassium sulphate in fertilisers drives the global potassium sulphate industry. This is due to the particular advantages offered by the product, which include a high potassium content, low chloride, and a low salt index. Furthermore, it is also used in the pharmaceutical industry, which due to increasing lifestyle diseases is expected to drive the market in the forecast period.

Rising Global Demand for Food and Agriculture to Aid the Market Growth of Potassium Sulphate

The growing population and the rising demand for food, which has resulted in increased demand for fertilisers from the agriculture sector, are driving the potassium sulphate industry growth. Fertilisers containing potassium sulphate are mainly used in the production of vegetables and fruits. In the short term, the fruit segment could be the most important driver of demand in the global potassium sulphate industry. Fertilisers are also used in the production of cash crops. Potassium sulphate demand growth may be supported in the short term by government funding for more research and development of fertilisers, as well as growing knowledge among farmers about their use. Potassium is also known as an electrolyte, which makes the body's fluids stay in equilibrium. Low potassium levels have also been linked to cancer and certain cardiovascular diseases. Because of these factors, its use in the pharmaceutical industry is in high demand. The growing applications and demand from other industries, such as cosmetics, are expected to open up new growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period.
