The growth in population and the consequent rise in demand for food materials have led to an increase in the need for crop protection chemicals, thereby increasing the demand for innovative fungicides solutions across regions. However, the demand for fungicides in various regions is projected to remain high due to the increasing number of crop types grown in abundance. 

For instance, the US is a leading producer of cereals and grains, while Europe is known for its wide-scale production of fruits and vegetables. The cereals & grains segment accounted for the largest market share in 2018, followed by the fruits & vegetable segment.
