August 27, 2026] — The global sodic-soil reclamation nutrient package market was valued at USD 2.9 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 3.1 billion in 2026 and USD 6.0 billion by 2036, expanding at a 6.8% CAGR from 2026 to 2036, according to Fact.MR.

Demand is rising as sodic soils reduce permeability and infiltration and make standard fertilizer programs less effective. Fact.MR says calcium remains the preferred reclamation ion because it supports sodium displacement and improves clay flocculation. Reclamation can also require repeated irrigation and field-management actions. This supports demand for integrated packages that combine amendments, nutrient planning, and leaching support.

External Research Supports the Reclamation Need

Fact.MR's methodology cites three dated external sources used in its analysis. Utah State University Extension, in a February 29, 2024 publication by Barker, Cardon, Yost, Stock, Creech, and Gale, provides guidance on saline and sodic soils and irrigation water. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, in its 2024 Global Status of Salt-Affected Soils, is cited for salt-affected soil guidance. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service, in its October 2024 Conservation Practice Standard, Code 333, is cited for soil amendment guidance involving gypsum products. Fact.MR uses these sources alongside extension guidance in its reclamation analysis.

Note: the Fact.MR page does not publish numerical third-party statistics from these sources. Therefore, no external numerical figures are added here.

Segment Breakdown

Package type: Gypsum-based reclamation packages are estimated to lead with approximately 36% share in 2026. Fact.MR links their position to the role of gypsum in supplying calcium for sodium displacement and soil-structure recovery. Calcium and sulfur nutrient packages, acidifying amendment packages, multi-input recovery packages, and nutrient-and-leaching coordinated packages are also covered.

Application: Soil incorporation programs are expected to account for approximately 40% share in 2026. Fact.MR says these programs address the soil profile where sodicity affects exchange sites and soil structure. Broadcast and tillage programs, drip-irrigation nutrient programs, and fertigation-assisted reclamation are also analyzed.

Crop type: Fruits and vegetables are projected to hold approximately 30% share in 2026. The report connects this demand with the sensitivity of irrigated horticultural crops to reduced infiltration and root-zone stress. Cereals and grains, plantation crops, oilseeds and pulses, and forage crops are also included.

Sales channel: Fact.MR identifies ag-retailers as a major channel because reclamation requires soil testing, amendment calculations, product selection, and ongoing guidance. The broader channel analysis covers direct-to-farmer sales, online marketplaces, and cooperatives.

Country Growth Outlook

·         India — 8.0%

·         China — 7.4%

·         Mexico — 7.1%

·         United States — 6.7%

·         Brazil — 6.3%

India is projected to record the fastest growth among the listed countries at 8.0% CAGR, supported by irrigated acreage and demand for sodium-aware soil recovery programs. China follows at 7.4%, while Mexico is projected at 7.1%. The United States and Brazil are forecast to grow at 6.7% and 6.3%, respectively.

Competitive Landscape

The market includes Nutrien Ltd., Yara International ASA, ICL Group Ltd., Haifa Group, UPL Ltd., Coromandel International Ltd., and SQM S.A. Fact.MR describes competition as moderately concentrated at the program-design level, while distribution and technical support remain fragmented. Competitive strength depends on amendment quality, agronomic support, soil testing, and the ability to connect calcium delivery with sodium displacement, infiltration recovery, irrigation, and drainage management.

Company-specific market shares are not disclosed on the Fact.MR page. The published share figures relate to market segments, including gypsum-based packages, soil incorporation, fruits and vegetables, and large irrigated farms; no company share figures have been invented for this release.

Analyst View

Shambhu Nath Jha, Senior Analyst at Fact.MR, said, “Buyers are not only purchasing calcium. They are purchasing a program that helps restore permeability, root access, and the productivity of irrigated land.”

The market outlook also highlights opportunities for gypsum- and calcium-linked packages, irrigated horticulture solutions, and programs that combine amendment use with nutrient scheduling and leaching management.
