Chemical control is estimated to be the most widely used control method during the forecast period. 

Chemical control implies the use of formulations such as insecticides, fumigants, and rodenticides. Globally, it is the most widely adopted method of control due to its immediate results, availability, longer duration, and greater coverage area. Thus, this segment is estimated to account for the highest share among control methods in 2018.

Among chemicals, fumigants are commonly preferred by farmers, cooperatives, and traders; this is because it leaves minimal residues as compared to insecticides and rodenticides. Fumigation with phosphine is the most commonly preferred fumigant for the treatment of warehouses and grain storages. Sulfuryl fluoride is also used when grains are stored in silos.

Among target pest, the insects segment is projected to be the fastest-growing during the forecast period. 

Insect pests such as beetle, weevils, moths, and grain borers have adverse and damaging impacts on various agricultural commodities. They cause major losses in stored grains, as they infest grains through direct consumption of kernels or through the accumulation of webbing and insect cadavers. The deposition of insect waste on grains results in low-quality grains, which are unfit for human consumption. Therefore, the usage of grain protectants for insect control is projected to grow as the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period.
