Forecast: Nitrogen Fertilizer use on Crops in Canada

Nitrogen fertilizer use on crops in Canada stood at 71 kilograms per hectare in 2023. The forecasted data shows a steady increase from 72 kilograms per hectare in 2024 to 75.25 kilograms per hectare by 2028. This indicates a year-on-year variation of approximately 1.17% from 2024 to 2025, 1.12% from 2025 to 2026, 1.09% from 2026 to 2027, and 1.06% from 2027 to 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the next five years is projected to be around 1.08%.

Future trends to watch for include advancements in precision agriculture, which could impact the efficiency and overall use of nitrogen fertilizers. Environmental regulations concerning nitrogen runoff and sustainability practices among Canadian farmers will also play crucial roles in shaping the demand and usage trends of nitrogen fertilizers.
