Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, the Swedish insecticides and disease control agents market was shaped by tightening regulatory focus on reducing the use of substances toxic to aquatic organisms and posing occupational risks. EU directives and national enforcement maintained stability in available forestry products while constraining overall market volume, which declined from 706 tons in 2018 to 666 tons in 2020.

Market volume rebounded strongly to 1 060 tons in 2021 and further to 1 149 tons in 2022. This growth was driven by the re-registration of insecticide Ace, which restricted its use for spruce seed cultivation and spurred demand for alternatives. Concurrently, the development of biological control agents like nematodes and beneficial insects expanded the product range, and the availability of 59 approved active substances in 2022 supported supply diversity. Shifting consumer preferences toward more environmentally friendly solutions also contributed to market expansion.
