France Plasticulture for Growing Vegetables Market - Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029

France Plasticulture for Growing Vegetables Market Analysis and Size

Plasticulture is widely accepted as it helps to double and triple yields and the crops are harvested two to three weeks earlier than as compared to traditional growing practices. Plastic mulch is used in plasticulture. It protects fruits, vegetables and leaves from disease by preventing direct contact with the soil. It helps to suppress weeds and save water in crop production. It is used on a large scale for vegetable growing, with millions of acres cultivated under plastic mulch.

These plastic products are used in the agricultural industry for early and high-quality production. Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the France plasticulture for growing vegetables market is expected to reach the value of EUR 42.79 million by the year 2029, at a CAGR of 3.0% during the forecast period.

Market Definition

The practice of using plastic for growing vegetables, fruits and in agricultural activities is known as plasticulture. These practices include raised beds, plastic mulch, drip irrigation, soil fumigation, irrigation, the packaging of agricultural products and the protection of harvests from precipitation. Black plastic mulch even helps control weeds. Plastic is also used as a mulch or greenhouse cover. Its management requires careful planning and close attention.

Market Dynamics of the France Plasticulture for Growing Vegetables Include:

Drivers/ Opprtunity

• Increasing agricultural sector

Plasticulture is widely used in agriculture for plants and animals. It helps in moisture conservation, water saving and reduction in fertilizer consumption for the production of plants. Plasticulture helps to increase the yield of vegetables by keeping them safe with the use of nets and preserves soil moisture. This will contribute to healthy agricultural growth. Hence, the increasing agricultural sector will contribute to the growth of France plasticulture for growing vegetables market.

• Increasing key benefits of plasticulture

Plastic films and mulch keep the soil hydrated and keep the soil loose, friable and well aerated. This helps roots to take oxygen. The vegetables grown with the help of film are much cleaner. It provides a better surface for water drainage and reduces the drowning of vegetables as excess water runs off the plastic-covered rows and out of the field. Thus increasing key benefits of plasticulture contributes to the growth of France plasticulture for growing vegetables market.

• Rising plasticulture in inhouse and vertical farming

Plastic film on field grown crops and plastic-covered tunnels are widely used for in-house and vertical farming to increase the production of crops and provide safe and healthy foods. In vertical farming, food is produced in vertically stacked layers, such as in a warehouse. Therefore, increasing in-house and vertical farming activities in the region use plasticulture products to grow their veggies and food. Companies engaged in vertical and in-house farming are also engaged in adopting plasticulture products and R&D to increase yields. Increasing investment in vertical farming also contributes to its market growth.

• Increasing initiatives in plasticulture

APE (Agriculture Plastics Environment) Europe is a professional association that aims to bring together companies and organizations involved in agri-plastics. This association aims for a cleaner environment and higher crop productivity. It promoted the use of plastics in agriculture and developed National Collection Schemes (NCS) for the recovery and recycling of used agricultural plastics in all European countries. It is creating awareness among the farmers and countrymen on the various advantages of agri-plastics. It supports R&D projects for sustainable agriculture in Europe through agri-plastics. To run all these processes, several schemes and initiatives are introduced.

Restraints/Challenges Faced by the France Plasticulture for Growing Vegetables Market

• High concerns over the harmful effects of plastics

There is a high possibility that the plastics may contain the pesticides and insecticides used on the crops. The plastic films can accumulate pesticides and can enter the food chain through the consumption of livestock. Plastic films are often made of the materials such as polyethylene (PE), poly-vinyl chloride (PVC) and more. They are the most widely used materials because of their excellent mechanical properties and low cost. These films pose a risk of being carcinogenic, which can have a harmful effect on human health.

• Increasing cost of production and yield

Plasticulture technology's advantages over conventional production practices are the main reason behind the increased cost of production. Plastic films conserve the soil moisture by making them loose and friable, which results in less water consumption and boosts production where it takes less time to produce the crops compared to traditional farming. Plasticulture production requires more labor and specialized machinery and equipment for the application of plastic films and mulch required for the successful production of the crop, which eventually increases its cost. Thus, increasing cost of production and yield hinders the growth of France plasticulture for growing vegetables market

• Removal and disposal of mulches

Plastic mulching is commonly used in vegetable production. After the harvesting of the crops, one of the major problems with the plasticulture system is the removal and disposal of mulches. The removal of plastic mulch from fields requires specialized equipment, which can be costly and plastic mulch is generally hard to dispose of. Some plastic films can be recycled, but some plastic films do eventually break down and small pieces may remain in the field for several years. Thus, removing and disposing of mulch films needs to be done correctly. Farmers and people engaged in plasticulture activities are not able to recycle the disrupted mulches, which makes them waste. They face difficulty in managing the waste of mulches. During the recycling, the chances of mulch films getting torn are high, which restricts the farmers or the person dealing in the farming from reusing the films as it can cost more. Government efforts to ban single-use plastics are also creating issues during the disposal of the films.
