This is primarily due to their growth driven by rising demand for enhanced agricultural output due to the declining cultivable lands from changing weather patterns. Application of nutrients, plant growth regulators, and pesticides as foliar sprays provides a more localized method of promoting plant health and growth at critical points in development. The increasing trend towards organic farming and sustainable crop management practices in regions such as Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe is one of the major factors driving the market growth. Moreover, foliar application is becoming the method of choice because it minimizes nutrient loss, improves nutrient use efficiency, decreases soil degradation, quicker remedial treatment of nutrient deficiencies. Moreover, favorable government initiatives promoting modern agriculture technologies and using high-efficiency farming inputs are likely to promote the consumption of foliar sprays in the coming years.
The U.S. foliar spray market size was valued at USD 956.62 million in 2023, accounting for nearly 70% of the global market and growing at a robust pace. With a well-established and advanced agricultural sector, the country has witnessed numerous farmers and growers adopting precision agriculture practices early due to the rising investment in high-value crops. In addition, initiatives that support the sustainable use of inputs, such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) “Climate-Smart Agriculture and Forestry Initiative,” are providing impetus for foliar application adoption. As farming segments in the U.S. move toward more crop nutrition efficiency and a stronger demand for organic produce, the demand for foliar spray products is driven up.

Market Segmentation
By Type
In 2023, nitrogenous foliar sprays accounted for the highest share of the total market at 45.2%. These sprays are composed of important nutrients like urea, ammonium nitrate, and calcium nitrate, which are common vegetative boosters for crop yield. Foliar sprays containing nitrogen are necessary for the crop in periods of high metabolic activity and are rapidly absorbed and utilized. Due to an increasing awareness of excessive nitrogen use’s adverse environmental effects, micronutrient-based foliar sprays such as zinc, iron, and boron are growing even quicker in high-value horticultural and cash crops.
By Form
Liquid formulation held the largest market share, around 64.7% in 2023. This type is characterized by ease of application, better nutrient absorption efficiency, and is also used for a wide range of crops. When it comes to correcting nutrient deficiencies, liquid foliar sprays are quickly absorbed by the plant leaves, making them more effective than powdered or granular forms. This also provides fertilization, which is important during critical stages of growth when delivering nutrients and active ingredients must be applied evenly. Liquid formulations are favored over other forms of pesticides, as they can easily be combined with other agrochemicals, including herbicides, to minimize field applications as well as labor costs.
By Application
The horticulture segment dominated the market, holding a share of 42.5% in 2023. They are widely used in fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants through foliar sprays to promote flowering, fruit set, and quality. Some key factors driving the segment include rising demand for quality produce, high consumption of fruits and vegetables, and export-based horticulture industries, especially in India, Spain, Mexico, and Brazil. One such application of foliar spray method is in horticulture, where it provides more advanced nutrient application at crucial times for better shelf stability, colour as well as size, which are important in global trade.
Regional Analysis
The global foliar spray market, by region, held 38.5% market share in 2023, and is expected to retain the position in the future. The major share is due to the large agricultural base, growing farmer awareness about modern crop protection practices, and government-backed initiatives towards precision agriculture technologies. Foliar spray is being increasingly used by countries such as China, India, and Japan to improve crop productivity and sustainability.
The foliar sprays market is driven, especially in Asian countries, as well as in India with the rise of efficient input usage model and modern agricultural practice due to government initiatives such as “Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana” (PMKSY) in India, and “No. 1 Central Document” agricultural policies in China. In addition, the increasing production of horticulture crops and commercial vegetables to meet local and export (international) demand in the region drives the market growth.
