Growth is being driven by biofertilizers, biological inputs, and smart farming systems that reduce water and chemical use while boosting yields across China, India, Japan, and Australia. Adjacent categories, including regenerative agriculture and smart harvesting solutions, are expected to maintain high single to double digit expansion through the 2030s, supported by policy momentum and enterprise sustainability mandates flowing through supply chains. Consumer demand for organic produce, rising corporate sustainability commitments, and national programs focused on digital farming, soil restoration, and emissions reduction are setting the pace for large scale adoption across the region. Biofertilizers illustrate this shift clearly. Demand is climbing due to heightened awareness of soil health and government backed adoption programs, with China and India leading growth and strong traction emerging in microbial solutions such as mycorrhiza that enhance nutrient uptake and stress tolerance.However, headwinds persist. Upfront investment requirements for precision tools, limited technical capacity among smallholders, and fragmented distribution networks continue to constrain scalability and returns across diverse farm structures. Concerns over data stewardship in connected farm environments and inconsistent access to agronomic advisory services also slow adoption in developing markets.These hurdles are easing through targeted subsidies, public private pilots, and smallholder focused toolkits that bundle IoT sensing with agronomic guidance to de risk investments. Partnerships linking equipment makers, agtech startups, and cooperatives are widening access, while stricter pesticide rules and expanding organic export demand reinforce the case for cleaner inputs across APAC.In this edition, we feature companies and individuals who have been significantly influential in the market. Rolling Greens showcases microbial innovations that boost yields, improve soil biology, and reduce fertilizer use, complemented by perspectives from Dr. Rachmat Setyawan of PT. Gunanusa Eramandiri Tbk and Antoni Simamora of First Resources [SGX: EB5] to inform more data driven decisions.Let us know your thoughts!sales@agribusinessreview.comeditor@agribusinessreview.commarketing@agribusinessreview.comEMAILAPAC
