The global molluscicide market is projected to reach a value of USD 247.4 million by 2033, driven by a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9% during the assessment period from 2023 to 2033. This growth is attributed to the increasing need for effective pest control solutions in agriculture and horticulture, as well as rising awareness regarding the economic impacts of mollusk infestations on crop yields

Growing focus on protecting crops from snail and slug infestation is a prominent factor expected to drive the global molluscicide industry.

Mollusks such as slugs and snails are harmful pests for fruits, crops, vegetables, ornamental plants, and ecosystems. They are known for their destructive nature on cultivated plants. As a result, need for controlling these pests is becoming more and more important day by day.

Molluscicides are substances or chemicals used to control or kill mollusks, especially those that pose threats to crops. These pesticides are being used across verticals such as agriculture, gardening, aquaculture, etc.

Rising food insecurity along with reduction in arable land is expected to positively influence molluscicide sales during the assessment period.

Mollusks are a great threat to agriculture, causing severe yield losses in a variety of crops globally. To address this and improve crop yield, farmers are increasingly utilizing biological and chemical molluscicides, thereby fostering market growth.

Another prominent factor boosting the target market is the growing popularity of biological molluscicides.

Due to limited number of chemical molluscicides on the market and awareness about their negative impact, end users are rapidly shifting their preference towards eco-friendly molluscicides.
