除草劑市場趨勢:

糧食生產的需求不斷增加

根據世界資源研究所的預測,到 2050 年,全球人口預計將達到 100 億,這需要大幅增加糧食產量來滿足 30 億人的糧食需求。除草劑對於這個過程至關重要,因為它們可以控制雜草,否則雜草會與農作物爭奪陽光、水和養分等重要資源。除此之外,除草劑施用策略可確保更高的作物產量和更有效的農業實踐,當田地中沒有提供競爭的雜草時,有效利用資源的作物可以提高每公頃的糧食產量。因此,在資源有限的世界中,有必要滿足不斷成長的糧食需求並鼓勵永續農業方法。

採用基因改造 (GM) 作物

基因改造作物和相應的除草劑由於其相容性而被廣泛使用。根據國際農業生物技術應用服務機構 (ISAAA) 的數據,除草劑耐受性和抗蟲性綜合特徵增加了 6%,目前已達到 8,510 萬公頃,即全球農業用地的 45%。它顯示了農民對生態友善農業實踐的偏好,例如免耕種植和減少使用農藥。直到2018 年,除草劑耐受性仍然是棉花、大豆、油菜、玉米和苜蓿等作物最常見的特徵。使用動態方面。基因改造作物能夠抵抗除草劑,使農民能夠在不危害作物的情況下使用除草劑。此外,基改作物的種植面積呈指數級成長,在全球範圍內達到數百萬公頃。除草劑抗性的特性透過減少傳統除草方法所涉及的勞動力和成本,簡化了雜草控制並提高了農業實踐的有效性。因此,這推動了對基因改造種子及其相容除草劑的需求,標誌著農業方法的重大轉變。

雜草抗性發生率上升

除草劑使用的增加導致雜草抗藥性病例增加。當經過除草劑處理的雜草族群適應承受治療時,就會發生這個過程,最終隨著時間的推移降低這些藥物的功效。此外,雜草科學顯示農業管理存在一個根本問題,即大量發生除草劑抗性。例如,全球已在 531 個不同案例中發現了抗除草劑雜草,涵蓋 272 個物種(155 個雙子葉植物和 117 個單子葉植物)。這些雜草已經對 168 種不同的除草劑產生了抗藥性,涵蓋了 31 個已知作用位點中的 21 個。這種不斷增加的抗藥性帶來了對創造能夠擊敗抗藥性菌株的新除草劑的持續需求。維持高水準的農業產量取決於解決雜草抗性問題,這需要在除草劑和耕作技術的創造方面不斷創新和適應。例如,美國雜草科學學會(WSSA) 最近於2024 年6 月5 日在《雜草技術》雜誌上發表的一項研究發現,大氟苯尼康(一種新型玉米芽前除草劑)有望成為綜合除草劑的有效成分對耐多種除草劑的水麻(Amaranthus tuberculatus)的管理。

Herbicides Market Trends:

Increasing Demand for Food Production

According to the World Resources Institute, the global population is projected to reach 10 Billion by 2050, which would need a significant increase in food production to satisfy the 3 Billion people that will need to be fed Additionally, agricultural production must be increased to overcome this challenge. Herbicides are essential to this process as they control weeds, which would otherwise compete with crops for vital resources such as sunlight, water, and nutrients. Along with this, the herbicide application strategy ensures higher crop yields and more effective agricultural practices offering improved food production per hectare from crops using the resources efficiently when fields are kept free of weeds that provide competition. Thus, in a world where resources are limited, this is necessary to meet the growing demand for food and to encourage sustainable agriculture methods.

Adoption of Genetically Modified (GM) Crops

GM crops and the corresponding herbicides are widely used due to their compatibility. The combined features of herbicide tolerance and insect resistance grew by 6%, according to the International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications (ISAAA), and now account for 85.1 million hectares, or 45% of all agricultural land worldwide. It demonstrates the preference of farmers for ecologically friendly agricultural practices, such as no-till planting and less use of pesticides. Herbicide tolerance continued to be the most common feature in crops such as cotton, soybeans, canola, maize, and alfalfa until 2018. Besides this, genetically modified (GM) crop integration has revolutionized current agriculture, especially regarding the dynamics of pesticide use. Genetically modified crops, designed to withstand herbicides, enable farmers to use herbicides without endangering the crop. Additionally, the area cultivated with biotech crops has expanded exponentially, reaching millions of hectares globally. The trait of herbicide resistance simplifies weed control and enhances the effectiveness of agricultural practices by reducing the labor and cost involved in traditional weeding methods. Consequently, this drives the demand for genetically modified seeds and their compatible herbicides, marking a significant shift in agricultural methodologies.

Rising Incidence of Weed Resistance

The growing use of herbicides has led to an increase in weed resistance cases. This process happens when herbicide-treated weed populations adapt to withstand the treatments, eventually decreasing the efficacy of these drugs over time. Additionally, Weed Science indicates a fundamental problem with agricultural management with numerous occurrences of herbicide resistance. For instance, herbicide-resistant weeds have been found in 531 different cases globally, encompassing 272 species (155 dicots and 117 monocots). These weeds have become resistant to 168 different herbicides, covering 21 of the 31 known sites of action. This ongoing need to create new herbicides that can defeat resistant strains is brought on by this increasing resistance. Maintaining high levels of agricultural output depends on addressing weed resistance, which calls for constant innovation and adaptation in the creation of herbicides and farming techniques. For instance, in a study recently published in the journal Weed Technology by the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) on 5 June 2024, it was found that Diflufenican, a novel preemergence herbicide for corn, shows promise as an effective component of integrated weed management against water hemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) resistant to multiple herbicides.
