Derived from the biopolymer chitin present in insects and shellfish, chitin fertilizer is becoming more widely acknowledged for its use in sustainable agriculture, mainly as an organic soil enhancer and biostimulant. By encouraging beneficial microbial activity, it improves soil health, boosts plant growth, and aids in the control of pests and diseases. The increasing need for sustainable agricultural inputs that minimize the use of chemicals and organic farming methods has led to the need for chitin fertilizer. This product serves the demands of both conventional and organic farming by being used in a wide range of crops, such as cereals, fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals. Its range of end uses, which includes both personal gardening and commercial farming operations, makes it adaptable to a variety of clientele. Trends toward eco-friendly practices are the main factors driving the market.
In May 2023, Researchers at MIT found that a new method of rafting on chitin particles allowed carbon-capturing phytoplankton to form colonies in the water. In addition to aiding in colonization, these chitin rafts supplied crucial nutrients that the bacteria needed to survive and grow.
(Source: https://phys.org/news/2023-05-carbon-capturing-phytoplankton-colonized-ocean-rafting.html)
The globe is moving toward organic farming as environmental concerns grow. Chitin fertilizer is becoming more and more popular as a result of the negative effects that synthetic pesticides and fungicides have on both the environment and human health. The market for chitin fertilizer is expanding because, in contrast to synthetic fertilizers, chitin fertilizers are biodegradable and do not contaminate soil or subsurface water. Additionally, the market is expected to grow during the forecast period due to the increasing use of organic chitin fertilizers based on fish and shellfish, such as Dungeness crab shell and Pacific pink shrimp shell fertilizers, for a variety of applications, including cash crops (grass, flowers, and cannabis), fruits (strawberries, grapes, and citrus), and vegetables (tomatoes, lettuce, and cucumber). Both plants and animals cannot be harmed by the chitin fertilizer made from the chemical found in the shells of Pacific pink shrimp and Dungeness crabs.
The global chitin market is expanding due to the increasing use of chitin in the medical field to treat conditions like obesity, TB, and others. Increased demand for chitin and its derivatives from the agriculture sector to modify plant-microbial interactions and increase crop yield is another important driver anticipated to propel growth in the global chitin market over the forecast period. The growing use of chitin in end-use industries like food, packaging materials, building and construction, textiles, cosmetics, and toiletries is another factor propelling the global chitin market.
Chitin is a naturally occurring polymer that is present in fungal cell walls and shellfish exoskeletons. Lack of sea life and poor farming practices lead to scarcity, which raises the cost of chitin products. Furthermore, the biggest source of shellfish is China. Significant worries have been raised by the disputes between the US and China over the introduction of tariffs. Furthermore, because of the supply chain disruption and the worldwide decline in production and demand, the economic collapse brought on by the Corona epidemic has also affected prices. Delays in transactions, production line shutdowns, interruptions in imports or exports, and a decline in demand have all contributed to price volatility, which impedes market expansion.
The market for chitin fertilizer was greatly affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, which caused supply chains and production to be disrupted by transportation restrictions and a shortage of workers. Lockdowns had an impact on the supply of raw materials, such as shellfish waste, which is the main source of chitin. But during the pandemic, interest in bio-based fertilizers like chitin increased due to increased awareness of sustainable agriculture. As food security and environmental sustainability became more important, the industry saw a rise in demand for environmentally friendly fertilizer substitutes. The industry has grown thanks to government incentives for organic farming and the agricultural sector's post-pandemic rebound. The market for chitin fertilizer saw long-term prospects as a result of the pandemic, despite some noteworthy short-term setbacks.

In order to fortify their positions and contend with their competitors, a number of significant companies are focusing largely on enhancing their production capacities, research and development (R&D) investments, cooperative partnerships, and mergers and acquisitions.
In March 2022, Hive Energy Ltd. purchased CuanTec, a Strathclyde start-up that turns waste from the shellfish industry into high-end chitin-based products. For use in eco-friendly products, the former has created a novel method for removing biopolymer chitosan from leftover shellfish trash from different fisheries.
