CALCIUM CYANAMIDE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global calcium cyanamide market size was anticipated to be valued at USD 0.34 billion in 2024, with a projected growth to USD 0.41 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

Calcium cyanamide is a chemical compound used in industrial agricultural fertilizers. The fertilizer calcium cyanamide helps plants to reach high yields, thus maximizing profits for farmers. The chemical is applied directly to the soil, where it breaks down into ingredients that are beneficial to plan growth. Calcium cyanamide is organised from calcium carbide. The carbide powder is heated to about 1000°C for several hours in a nitrogen-flushed electric heater. The fertilizer calcium cyanamide benefits plants to influence high yields thus exploiting profits for farmers. The chemical is applied directly to the soil, where it breaks down into ingredients that are beneficial to plan growth. Calcium cyanamide also tasks in other surfaces in addition to being a fertilizer. High food prices drive agricultural demand to increase. Calcium cyanamide can be used as an alkaline fertilizer for acidic soils. After being applied to acidic soil, calcium cyanamide reacts with soil moisture to form calcium hydroxide and acid calcium cyanamide which in turn forms cyanamide and hydrolyzes to form urea which is then renewed into ammonium carbonate for plant use. Calcium cyanamide mainly releases cyanamide and dicyandiamide through decomposition to kill underground pests and diseases and has the advantages of no residue in soil and safe operation. Consequently, it will not cause pollution to soil, groundwater and agricultural products. Thus, the rise of green agriculture has brought calcium cyanamide another opportunity for development. Therefore, the high boom in agriculture is expected to bring momentum to the development of the calcium cyanamide industry. Participating are fixing their efforts on encouraging R&D.
