Top Drivers:

Due to CBD’s legal status in the majority of countries, the market for CBD plant nutrients is growing quickly. As a result, the market for CBD food products has grown dramatically in recent years. CBD has nutritional requirements similar to those of maize, with a high demand for potassium and nitrogen across different stages of their life cycle. As a result, cannabis farmers now require these minerals more than ever. The main force driving the market is farmers’, hemp growers’, and producers’ shifting perspective on hemp nutrition. The market will profit from CBD’s inclusion in commercial, industrial, and animal feed.

Due to their proven effectiveness in treating a variety of chronic illnesses, CBD plant nutrients are in great demand in the pharmaceutical industry. They are also employed in the cosmetics industry. It is projected that the legalization of hemp cultivation in the majority of the world’s countries will contribute to the growth of the worldwide market. Additionally, it is projected that continued research on cannabinoids and the rise of cannabis use in Asian countries would present CBD growers with appealing growth opportunities.

The soaring popularity of cannabis in many Asian nations along with ongoing research and development on cannabinoids have opened up new opportunities for industry players. A rising body of evidence indicates that macro- and micronutrients play a role in secondary metabolism. Growing cannabis plants requires using the right nutritional strategies, such as organic fertilizers, vitamins, and biostimulants.

Market Restraints:

Little is known about how nutritional supplements affect the physiological and chemical properties of cannabis and their potential role in standardizing the active compounds in the plant material administered to patients due to regulatory constraints on cannabis research.

COVID 19 Analysis

The COVID outbreak has caused a sharp increase in demand for nutrients. The production of CBD plant nutrients was driven by the significant demand for CBD and its usage in the pharmaceutical sector.

The market value of CBD plant nutrients has expanded as a result of the CBD industry’s demand.
