Wood vinegar is mainly utilized by farmers and livestock producers to improve overall agriculture production with the help of biopesticides. Globally, the wood vinegar market is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% in the forecast period, providing numerous opportunities for market players to invest in research and development in the wood vinegar industry.

The rising adoption of wood vinegar in agriculture as a soil enhancer and organic pesticide is expected to generate the highest market share in the agriculture segment. The need for bio-degradable and non-hazardous chemicals in farming is on the rise due to numerous governmental initiatives, such factors are propelling the growth of the wood vinegar market in coming years. Subsequently, the rising popularity of wood vinegar globally and growing approval for its regular use is attributed to the market expansion over the forecast period. Also, the large-scale availability of the base material is enabling the local farmer to adopt and produce wood vinegar domestically, which is about the market growth as well. Especially, farmers who cannot afford premium synthetic chemicals, wood vinegar serves as an ideal choice.

Though, the cheaper price associated with the production of the non-biomass-based products is expected to hamper the growth of the market in coming years.

Wood vinegar also referred to as pyroligneous acid or mokusaku, is produced and used in organic farming with the help of traditional methods. Wood vinegar or the liquid fuel is derived from bio-mass by carbonization and consists of as much as two hundred organic variants such as acetic acid and formaldehyde. Primary variants such as acetic acid act as a soil disinfectant, while methanol is influential in increasing overall crop yield by minimizing the consummation of water.
