“Rising Shift Toward Mating Disruption Techniques in Crop Protection”
• Farmers in South Africa are increasingly adopting mating disruption techniques in vineyards to control grapevine moths without relying on chemical pesticides
• Technological innovations such as microencapsulated pheromone dispensers are enabling consistent and longer-lasting pest control in open-field tomato farms in Egypt
• The rising focus on sustainable agriculture is encouraging the shift toward pheromone-based pest management as a safer alternative to traditional insecticides
• Agricultural extension programs across the region are actively training farmers on the benefits and application of mating disruption in integrated pest management
• Leading companies are introducing species-specific pheromone formulations that improve effectiveness against pests such as codling moth in apples and tomato leafminer in vegetable crops

Restraint/Challenge
“Limited Awareness and Technical Knowledge”
The agricultural pheromones market in the Middle East and Africa is segmented into type, product type, nature, mode of application, species, crop type, function, and distribution channel.
• By Type
On the basis of type, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into sex pheromones, aggregation pheromones, repellent pheromones, and others. The sex pheromones segment dominated the market in 2024 due to their high effectiveness in disrupting insect mating cycles, especially in date palm and citrus crops. Their targeted action and eco-safety make them a preferred pest control tool.
The repellent pheromones segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, supported by the increasing need for low-residue pest control. These pheromones are gaining popularity in vegetable farming for offering a natural deterrent against pest invasions.
• By Product Type
Based on product type, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into spray, traps, dispensers, and others. The dispensers segment accounted for the largest share in 2024 due to their long duration of efficacy and slow-release properties, often used in orchards and vineyards.
The traps segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, as farmers adopt low-maintenance pest monitoring systems. Traps are widely used in tomato and pepper cultivation due to their easy deployment and cost-effectiveness.
• By Nature
On the basis of nature, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into synthetic and organic. The synthetic segment held the largest market share in 2024, driven by better product availability, affordability, and proven consistency across crops such as maize and cotton.
The organic segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, with rising consumer demand for chemical-free food production. Organic pheromones are gaining adoption in certified organic farms producing fruits and vegetables.
• By Mode of Application
On the basis of mode of application, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into dispensers, traps, spray, and others. The dispensers segment led the market in 2024 due to widespread usage in large-scale fruit farms, providing continuous release and reduced labor.
The spray segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, driven by its application in cereal crops such as sorghum and millet where broad and uniform coverage is essential.
• By Species
Based on species, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into codling moth, bollworms, fruit fly, leafrollers, and others. The fruit fly segment dominated the market in 2024, particularly in countries such as Egypt and South Africa where stone and citrus fruits are heavily cultivated.
The bollworms segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, mainly in cotton-producing regions where resistance to chemical pesticides is rising.
• By Crop Type
On the basis of crop type, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into field crops, orchard crops, vegetables, and others. Orchard crops held the largest share in 2024 due to strong adoption in citrus, mango, and pomegranate farms where mating disruption is commonly used.
The Vegetables is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, supported by increasing greenhouse production in countries such as Kenya and Morocco, and the need for low-residue pest solutions.
• By Function
By function, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into mating disruption, mass trapping, and detection and monitoring. The mating disruption segment dominated the market in 2024, widely used across fruit plantations to reduce insect reproduction and infestation levels.
Detection and monitoring is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, supported by precision farming initiatives and increasing reliance on integrated pest management practices for pest tracking.
• By Distribution Channel
On the basis of distribution channel, the agricultural pheromones market is segmented into direct sales, retail sales, and online sales. Direct sales led the market in 2024 due to bulk purchases by commercial farms and long-term contracts with agricultural suppliers.
Online sales is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, enabled by digital platforms improving product accessibility, particularly in remote regions and for smallholder farmers across the region.
• South Africa dominated the Middle East and Africa agricultural pheromones market in 2024, driven by the country’s strong fruit and nut cultivation sector and its emphasis on sustainable farming practices
• The demand for environmentally friendly pest control in vineyards, citrus farms, and stone fruit plantations is supporting the large-scale adoption of pheromone-based solutions across South Africa’s commercial agriculture landscape
Saudi Arabia Agricultural Pheromones Market Insight
Saudi is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, supported by national initiatives promoting advanced farming methods and food security. The country's increasing investment in greenhouse agriculture and protected crop production is fueling the uptake of pheromone traps and mating disruption tools as safe and effective pest management alternatives
