Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2015 -- Growing at a CAGR of 5.1% between 2014 and 2020, the global isoxaflutole market, which in 2013 had a market value of US$116.3 million, is expected to record a market value of US$163 million by the year 2020. The isoxaflutole market is an integral part of the agrochemical industry. Isoxaflutole is a herbicide that is used extensively on broad-leaved weeds and grasses in corn. This active ingredient hinders carotenoid biosynthesis, which leads to chlorosis in plants, a condition where chlorophyll production is hampered, leading to lessened photosynthesis and eventual withering.

Apart from being applied in vegetable crops like sugarcane and corn, isoxaflutole is also used in fruit crops like apple, almond, walnut, and peach. Isoxaflutole is mostly used on sugarcane crops for eliminating pests and weeds. The global isoxaflutole market is driven by the rising demand for crops like sugarcane and maize. The rising demand for sugarcane can be attributed to the surging demand for biofuels and food. The expansion of the biofuels market can be attributed to increasing oil prices. This drives the demand for sugarcane.
