歐洲殺軟體動物劑市場：市場佔有率分析、產業趨勢與統計、成長預測（2025-2030 年）

預計 2025 年歐洲殺軟體動物劑市場規模將達到 1.37 億美元，到 2030 年將達到 1.792 億美元，預測期內（2025-2030 年）的複合年成長率為 5.51%。

葉面噴布佔市場主導地位

• 歐洲的氣候條件和土壤類型多種多樣，適合種植多種作物。主要作物是小麥，其次是大麥和黑麥。然而，蝸牛和蛞蝓等軟體動物的侵擾對作物生產構成了重大風險，導致產量下降、農民經濟損失和糧食安全擔憂。
• 該地區採用各種噴灑方法來控制蟲害。 2022 年，葉面噴布佔以金額為準佔有率最高，為 52.5%。葉面噴布聚乙醛和硫雙威是適合作為蝸牛綜合害蟲管理的組成部分之一，並且已被證明在該地區非常有效。
• 此外，土壤處理方法在 2022 年的以金額為準佔有率位居第二，為 32.2%。事實證明，向土壤噴灑殺軟體動物劑是最簡單、最安全、最有效的害蟲防治方法。使用系統性殺軟體動物劑處理土壤將會殺死土壤中的軟體動物。
• 使用葉面殺蟲劑對於消費者、工人和環境健康有幾個缺點。化學農藥的使用十分方便，成本低廉，並且消除了葉面噴布殺軟體動物劑的一些通用缺點。以以金額為準， 2022 年化學灌溉佔 12.9%。
• 為了找到最安全、最有效的使用方法，研究和創新不斷加強，再加上農民對正確使用殺軟體動物劑的有效性的認知不斷提高，預計市場在預測期內（2023-2029 年）的複合年成長率將達到 5.3%。

蝸牛數量的增加和農作物損失的增加促使人們使用殺軟體動物劑

• 蛞蝓是一種軟體動物，是對土壤最有害的動物之一，因為它們能夠對田間作物造成嚴重破壞，尤其是在春季到秋季的潮濕時期。灰蛞蝓是造成歐洲大部分農作物損失的主要蛞蝓種類之一。就2022年的消費量，法國佔有最大佔有率，為15.4%。
• 2022年，俄羅斯佔歐洲殺軟體動物劑市場總量的14.3%。俄羅斯涼爽潮濕的氣候使情況更加糟糕，一平方碼的耕地裡生活著多達200隻蝸牛，每隻蝸牛每年產下400顆圓形的白色卵。由於蝸牛繁殖率高，因此很難消滅。
• 在義大利，蝸牛給柑橘園造成了重大的經濟損失，因為它們以成熟和部分成熟的水果、嫩葉甚至幼樹的樹皮為食。此外，蝸牛的存在還會堵塞噴灌和灌溉系統，擾亂灌溉管理，進一步加劇了農民面臨的挑戰。
• 金屬鹽，例如四聚乙醛、氯硝柳胺、磷酸鐵（III）、硫酸鋁和乙二胺四乙酸鐵鈉是該地區常用的殺軟體動物劑，可以以多種方式使用。
• 為了提高殺軟體動物劑對蝸牛和蛞蝓的針對性和有效性，正在努力開發更有效的殺軟體動物劑型，以增加誘餌的吸引力、偏好和穩定性。由於這些因素，歐洲國家的殺軟劑市場預計將受到農民採用率提高的推動。

歐洲殺軟體動物劑市場趨勢

軟體動物族群增加導致每公頃擴散率增加

• 2022年，義大利成為每公頃殺軟劑使用量最大的國家，用量為40.8公克。蝸牛和蛞蝓等害蟲會破壞植物的種子、幼苗、根莖、葉子和果實。當幼苗受到危害時，它們常常會死亡，產量會大大降低。大麥、菜籽和豆類等作物尤其容易受到影響。義大利白蝸牛與其他物種一樣，是一種害蟲，其嚴重性在於它會在收穫期間污染穀物，也會堵塞和損壞收割機械。
• 在歐洲，荷蘭每公頃殺軟體動物劑消費量排名第二，2022 年為每公頃 25.7 克。各種蔬菜特別容易受到蛞蝓的破壞。尤其是抱子甘藍、藍甘藍和白菜，它們受到蛞蝓的危害，無法在市場上買到。蛞蝓和蝸牛最多可以產下 400 個卵，因此必須使用殺軟體動物劑。
• 2022年，德國、法國和西班牙每公頃將分別使用16.3克、14.3克和10.3克的殺軟體動物劑。大蝸牛，又稱羅馬蝸牛或勃根地蝸牛，是一種對德國農業有潛在破壞力的物種。眾所周知，這些大型陸地蝸牛以多種作物為食，包括蔬菜、水果和觀賞植物。這種蝸牛的攝食習性會破壞收穫農產品的外觀和質量，從而為農民帶來經濟損失。這引發了人們對蝸牛對德國以及其分佈的中東和非洲其他地區農業影響的擔憂。

金屬醛和磷酸鐵基殺軟體動物劑最常用於控制蛞蝓和蝸牛。

• 殺軟體動物劑用於殺死多種軟體動物，包括血吸蟲生命週期中的中間宿主蝸牛。已經開發出幾種用於控制作物環境中蛞蝓和蝸牛的殺軟體動物劑，通常以顆粒形式放置在植物根部周圍。
• 2022 年，甲醛價格為每噸 52,500 美元。它廣泛用於田間作物、花園和溫室，並以液體、顆粒、噴霧、粉塵和顆粒/顆粒誘餌等各種形式使用，可有效對抗蛞蝓、蝸牛和其他花園害蟲。市售的誘餌通常含有少於 4% 的甲醛作為活性成分，儘管一些顆粒狀誘餌可含有高達 5-10% 的甲醛。在歐洲，有些誘餌含有高達50％的甲醛。
• 磷酸鐵的 2022 年價格為每噸 52,000 美元，是一種高效且環保的殺軟體動物劑。它對人類、動物、非目標昆蟲、植物或土壤微生物無害，在農業生態系統中穩定且無反應。磷酸鐵是英國農業中唯一仍在使用的殺軟體動物劑。它會抑制胃中的鈣代謝，導致軟體動物停止進食，並通常導致地下死亡。將其以顆粒形式與蝸牛和蛞蝓誘餌一起撒在土壤上。
• 蛞蝓是最具破壞力且最難控制的害蟲之一。蛞蝓是許多蔬菜和花卉幼苗最喜歡的目標，導致作物難以生長。當蛞蝓在收穫前以水果和蔬菜為食時，它們會造成傷口以及真菌和細菌污染，從而導致作物腐爛。由於這些挑戰，歐洲農民已轉向使用甲醛和磷酸鐵等合成化學物質來控制蛞蝓。

The Europe Molluscicide Market size is estimated at 137 million USD in 2025, and is expected to reach 179.2 million USD by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.51% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The foliar application dominates the market

• Europe has diverse climatic conditions and soil types, which allow for the cultivation of a wide range of crops. The main crop is wheat, followed by barley and rye. However, there is a significant risk to crop production due to the infestations of mollusks, such as snails and slugs, that result in reduced yields, financial losses for farmers, and concerns about food security.
• Various application methods are adopted in the region to manage pest and disease attacks. Foliar application occupied the highest share of 52.5% by value in 2022. It has been observed that foliar spraying of metaldehyde and thiodicarb is suitable as one of the components of integrated pest management of snails and has been quite effective in the region.
• Additionally, the soil treatment method occupied the second-highest share of 32.2% by value in 2022. It has been observed that molluscicide application on soil appeared to be the easiest, safest, and most efficient way of controlling pests. If soil is treated with a systemic molluscicide, it kills mollusks that live in the soil.
• Nevertheless, there are several drawbacks to the health of consumers, workers, and the environment from using foliar pesticides. Chemigation of pesticides can be fairly utilized, making it cost-effective and removing several drawbacks common to foliar molluscicide applications. Chemigation occupied a share of 12.9% by value in 2022.
• Owing to the increase in research and innovation, which are aimed to bring out the safest and most effective method of application, along with the increased awareness among the farmers regarding the effectiveness of the proper application of molluscicides, the market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period (2023-2029).

Increasing snail population and the growing damage to crops are boosting the usage of molluscicides

• Slugs are a class of mollusks that are among the most harmful to soil due to their ability to inflict extensive damage on field crops, particularly during wet conditions of the spring and fall months. The grey slug is one of the major species of slugs, which is responsible for the majority of crop damage in Europe. France accounted for a major share of 15.4% in 2022 in terms of the consumption of molluscicides in the region.
• Russia accounted for 14.3% of the total European molluscicides market in 2022. The cool, humid climates of Russia make the situation even worse as the number of snails may be as high as 200 slugs on every square yard of cultivated farm, with each one capable of producing 400 round white eggs annually. The higher reproduction rate makes it very difficult to control the snails.
• In Italy, snails feed on ripe and ripening fruit, young tree leaves, and even the bark of young trees, leading to significant economic losses in citrus orchards. Additionally, their presence can disrupt irrigation management by clogging sprinkler heads and irrigation systems, further exacerbating the challenges faced by farmers.
• Metaldehyde, niclosamide, and metal salts such as iron (III) phosphate, aluminum sulfate, and ferric sodium EDTA comprise commonly used molluscicides in the region and can be applied through different methods.
• Advancements are being made in developing more effective molluscicide formulations to enhance bait attractiveness, palatability, and stability to improve the targeting and efficacy of molluscicides against snails and slugs. These factors are anticipated to drive the market for molluscicides in European countries, with higher adoption by farmers.

Europe Molluscicide Market Trends

The increasing mollusk population is leading to higher application per hectare

• In 2022, Italy emerged as the foremost consumer of molluscicides on a per-hectare basis, utilizing 40.8 grams. Pests like snails and slugs inflict harm on plant seeds, young plants, underground tubers, foliage, and fruits. The harm caused to young plants often leads to their demise, resulting in substantial reductions in production. Notably vulnerable are crops such as barley, canola, and pulses. The significance of the white Italian snail as a pest, like other species, is that they contaminate grain during harvest while also cogging and damaging harvest machinery.
• In Europe, the Netherlands ranks second in per-hectare molluscicide consumption, recording 25.7 grams per hectare in 2022. A wide range of vegetables are particularly susceptible to slug infestations. Notably, Brussels sprout buds and green and white cabbage often fall affected by slug nibbling, rendering them unsuitable for market sale. Slugs and snails lay insane amounts of eggs, up to 400, creating a situation that demands the use of molluscicides.
• Germany, France, and Spain were other prominent countries using molluscicides at the rate of 16.3 grams, 14.3 grams, and 10.3 grams per hectare, respectively, in 2022. Helix pomatia, also known as the Roman snail or Burgundy snail, is a species that can cause damage to agriculture in Germany. This large land snail is known to feed on various crops, including vegetables, fruits, and ornamental plants. Its feeding habits can lead to economic losses for farmers as the snails can damage the appearance and quality of the harvested produce. This makes Helix pomatia a concern for agricultural practices in Germany and other regions where it is found.

Metaldehyde and ferric phosphate-based molluscicides are most commonly used to control slugs and snails

• Molluscicides are used to kill various mollusk species, including intermediate host snails involved in the lifecycle of schistosomes. Several molluscicides have been developed to control slugs and snails in crop environments, typically deployed as pellets placed around the plant base.
• In 2022, metaldehyde was valued at USD 52.5 thousand per metric ton. Widely used in field crops, gardens, and greenhouses, it is applied in various forms such as liquid, granules, sprays, dust, or pelleted/grain bait to effectively combat slugs, snails, and other garden pests. Commercial baits usually contain 4% or less metaldehyde as the active ingredient, while some granule baits may contain up to 5-10% metaldehyde. In Europe, bait with up to 50% metaldehyde is available.
• Ferric phosphate, priced at USD 52.0 thousand per metric ton in 2022, stands as a highly effective and environmentally friendly molluscicide. It poses no harm to humans, animals, non-target insects, plants, or soil microbes and exhibits stability and non-reactivity in the agroecosystem. Ferric phosphate remains the only molluscicide employed in UK agriculture. It acts by interfering with stomach calcium metabolism, causing mollusks to cease feeding, leading to their typical subterranean death. It is applied to soil in pellet form with bait to attract snails and slugs.
• Slugs represent one of the most destructive and challenging pests to manage. They preferentially target seedlings of numerous vegetables and flowers, posing difficulties in crop establishment. Preharvest feeding by slugs on fruits and vegetables results in wounds that can lead to fungal and bacterial contamination, spoiling the crop. Due to these challenges, European farmers rely on synthetic chemicals like metaldehyde and ferric phosphate for slug control.
