Based on material, why is the clay segment expected to grow at the highest rate during 2021–2028?

Clay pots are water permeable. The excess water present inside the pot soil can be evaporated through the walls out of the pot. Clay pots provide a healthy environment for most of the plants as the porosity of the clay enables air and moisture to penetrate through the sides of the pot. The plant roots need oxygen in the soil to function properly and too much water will affect the overall health of the pant as well as damage the root system. The unglazed clay pots basically absorb and helps in losing the moisture through their walls and creating a natural safeguard against overwatering and allowing oxygen to enter the soil and aerate the roots. Clay pots have thick walls which protect the plant roots from the rapid changes in temperature. These pots have a fair amount of weight, and they do not get blown over easily like plastic pots. Terracotta and ceramic are the kind of clays mostly used for making planters and pots of different shapes and sizes. The terracotta pots are affordable as well as readily available, which is boosting the demand for terracotta pots and planters.
