India has a large, cost-competitive industry producing bio fertilizers, mycorrhiza-based inoculants, organic manures and other soil inputs.
Europe is moving away from chemical fertilizers because of EU organic-farming targets, carbon costs and Common Agricultural Policy eco-schemes. Spain's intensive greenhouse agriculture in Almería, Murcia and Valencia is one of the fastest-growing markets for these products.
The European biofertilizer market was about USD 1.14 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 1.67 billion by 2031 (6.6% a year). Spain is one of the fastest-growing countries, at close to 10% a year.
