The pesticide industry in India is shifting focus globally, requiring agro companies to pool resources to meet working capital needs. Players with strong in-house R&D and sales networks will succeed. While herbicides dominate the global market, insecticides make up most of India's top 20 pesticides. Key consuming states in India are Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Punjab. The industry is dominated by domestic production, with the top 10 players controlling 80% of the market. Biopesticides and organic farming will capture more market share in the future.
