According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the demand for microalgae in the fertilisers sector is expected to expand steadily. Its total market value is predicted to exceed US$ 28.7 million by 2033, up from US$ 11 million in 2023. The demand for microalgae in the fertilisers sector is expected to increase at a 10% CAGR from 2023 to 2033.
Microalgae is an organic, natural material and is a source of renewable energy obtained from marine or freshwater sources. Various species are finding roles of water retention and nutrition for varying soil profiles.
They have been utilized as a soil conditioner for numerous years in various studies, where liquid preparation and powdered extracts are used satisfactorily on cereal crops, resulting in increased crop yield, higher nutrient uptake, and improved herbicide tolerance.
Dry algae is also gaining traction as compost, assisting in soil binding, making it ideal for use as a bio-fertilizer. As dry algae is an organic material, it may store nutrients and provide them to plants via capillary action for a longer period.
The demand for microalgae in the fertilizers sector is experiencing significant growth as agricultural industries recognize the potential of these tiny organisms as a sustainable and nutrient-rich fertilizer source. Microalgae-based fertilizers offer essential nutrients, organic matter, and soil-improving properties, contributing to improved crop yields and sustainable farming practices, driving their increasing adoption.

Conventional chemical fertilizers dissolve in water and settle deep in the ground. Consequently, nutrients in fertilizers become unavailable over time. Microalgae fertilizers are used to resolve this problem. It also increases the soil’s water-holding capacity and the intermolecular space between soil molecules, allowing sufficient aeration to reach the root system.
Consumer preference for organic and environment-friendly fertilizers to enhance crop yield along with increasing concerns about sustainability drive the demand for microalgae in the fertilizers industry. Rising concerns pertaining to reduced soil salinization, greenhouse emissions, and abiotic stress in agriculture are driving the demand for natural ingredient-based fertilizers, supporting the incorporation of microalgae.
Growing Applications of Microalgae Residue
Cyanobacteria and microalgae have numerous applications and are a significant source of bioactive compounds. Generally, microalga is a rich source of essential macro and micro-elements, which can be used as a protein source in food, feed, and fertilizer applications.
Microalgae contain lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. Lipids extracted from algae are rich in oxygen (O) (26.3%), C (49.0%), N (5.76%) and hydrogen (H) (6.96%).
Untreated microalgae and microalgae biomass are rich in organic matter and macronutrient contents. This supports soil fertility, which in turn helps consumers to gain higher crop yield. Moreover, the cost of microalgae is comparatively low. Therefore, several fertilizer manufacturers utilize algae waste in their products.
