Agro Textile Market: Industry Trends, Size, and Forecast to 2029

What are Agro Textiles?

Agro textiles are specialized textile products designed for agricultural applications, utilizing fibers to enhance productivity, protection, and efficiency in farming. These include shade-nets, mulch-mats, anti-hail nets, bird protection nets, and fishing nets. Man-made or synthetic fibers are preferred over natural ones due to superior strength, durability, resistance to weathering, shrinkage from moisture, and suitability for humid environments. They provide crop protection from harsh weather, pests, UV radiation, and hail; conserve soil moisture; control weeds; and support aquaculture. Innovations include advanced materials like capillary nonwovens, floating covers, fluorescent fabrics, UV/NIR-blocking films for pest control and growth stimulation, and ultra-thermic options, aligning with sustainable and organic farming practices.
