Research Reports And Consulting #Seed Treatment Market

According to the report "Seed Treatment Market by Type, Application Technique (Coating, Dressing, Pelleting), Function (Seed Protection and Seed Enhancement), Formulation, Crop Type (Cereals & Grains, Oilseeds, Fruits & Vegetables), and Region - Global Forecast to 2027", published by MarketsandMarkets™, the market is estimated at USD 6.1 billion in 2022; it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% to reach USD 9.2 billion by 2027. Asia Pacific accounted for the fastest region, during the forecast period, in terms of volume and value, respectively. 

Asia Pacific comprises of the largest developing countries with vast agricultural lands as compared to other regions. The per capita income of the region depends on the agricultural activities conducted in the countries. The key countries that play an important role in the agriculture sector in this region are India, China, Japan, and Thailand. Cereals & grains, fruits & vegetables, are the leading agricultural commodities grown in these countries. Rice cultivation and the predominance of small-scale manufacturers are widely seen across all the countries of Asia Pacific.

Non-chemical treatment by type is projected to have the highest growth rate in the seed treatment market.

Non-chemical seed treatment is achieved in two ways, namely, physical and biological seed treatment. Physical seed treatment includes activities, such as steam, heat, or irradiation for seed protection, which means they function by disinfecting the seeds through non-chemical methods. Since in physical seed treatment, there is no use of chemical methods; this type of seed treatment method is appropriate for organic farming to control bacteria that may harm seeds.Biological seed treatment methods include microorganisms that are used to protect seeds against seed-and soil-borne diseases. This treatment method is an effective alternative to chemical seed treatment.

The seed enhancement segment by function is projected to grow with the highest growth rate in the seed treatment market over the forecast period.

Seed enhancement includes practices and technologies that improve the seed germination and seedling growth, thereby improving the overall crop’s harvested yield and quality. The seed enhancement market is further segmented into products, which enhance the viability of the seed and functions that include processes used to enhance seeds. There has been an increase in research & development investments carried out to develop new and better products, such as biofertilizers and crop protection chemicals, biologicals.Treatments such as pelleting, film-coating, and encrusting are included, which improve seed sowing. Some treatments, such as nutrients, enhance nutrient availability or provide inoculates required for seedling establishment.

The liquid solution segment by formulation is projected to grow with the highest CAGR of the seed treatment market over the forecast period.

Formulations have a significant impact on the survival of microbial during the process of product elaboration, storage, and application. The growth of microrganisms depends in various physical and chemical properties of the seed treatment formulations used. The liquid solution, also known as ‘quick wet’ method, is used for mainly for seed protection. For instance, fungicides can be applied to the seed and mixed well ensures proper coating of the solution. The free-flowing liquid solution then penetrates the seed coat, instead of sitting on the surface. This method can be used for fertilizer and nutritents such as trace elements. As there is high absorption rate, less of the product is required to be applied on the seeds.

Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest growing region in the seed treatment market during the forecast period

Asia Pacific seed treatment market is projected to grow with highest CAGR due to the growing agriculture industry in China and Japan. Demand for seed treatment has been growing in this region, due to global players increasing their investments of business lines in agricultural inputs to exclusively meet the demand of crop growers to attain export quality.

Restraints: Limited shelf life of the treated seed

Seed treatments can protect the seed and seedlings from low-moderate attacks by insects during the emergence and establishment of plants. Although the duration of protection may be limited, a delay in crop damage and pest establishment can be lowered. Due to the limited shelf life of treated seeds, seed germination and vigor decline relatively increase, particularly in seeds such as soybean. The survival of the microbes is affected by the physical and chemical properties of its formulation. The maintenance of the viability of the coated microbes in seeds can be challenging, therefore, shortening their shelf life.


Opportunities: Innovative combination of products

With the increase in R&D activities pertaining to seed treatments, there have been various innovative product developments that can enter the market in the next five years. Manufacturers of seed treatment products are developing innovative combinations of these products, which could be extremely beneficial for crop yields, both qualitatively and quantitatively. These combinations of chemical-biological and biological-biological components can be marketed and distributed to farmers in a customized way, depending on the crop to be harvested and the soil conditions. Manufacturers, such as Bayer and Syngenta, have been developing biological seed treatment products based on crop growing conditions at the regional level.


Challenges: Growing resistance to crop protection products

To achieve profits, growers have limited their adoption of good agricultural practices, such as controlled pesticide application in dosage limits and crop rotation. For instance, Brazilian farmers have been combating the soybean rust problem since it was first discovered in Brazil during the 2000/01 sowing season. It took a significant number of years for researchers and farmers to develop successful strategies to limit the extent of damages from the disease. However, recently, farmers and researchers have observed an increase in resistance from these diseases and new active ingredients.


By type, the chemical seed treatment is projected to dominate the market during the forecast period.

Chemical seed treatment witnesses increased preference among farmers due to its effectiveness, availability, and simpler application technique. Research shows that treating seed with one or more pesticides is the most economical way to protect them from pests and enhance seed quality. Pesticide manufacturers have been assisting in the formulation of chemical combinations for seed processors. Many key companies, such as Bayer AG (Germany), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), and Corteva Agriscience (US), offer broad-spectrum chemical seed treatment solutions for controlling seed and soil-borne diseases in a broad range of crops. This exponential growth in this North America region is attributed to government subsidies, increasing need to improve and protect food production, and rising awareness of seed treatment.


By application time, the pre-treated segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment in the seed treatment market during the forecast period.

Pre-treated seed treatment includes the application of the formulation chemically or biologically by the seed companies. Most of the key companies, such as Bayer AG (Germany) and Syngenta AG (Switzerland), treat the seeds with chemicals, such as thiram (fungicide), before selling it to farmers to protect the seeds from seed-borne and soil-borne diseases in the initial stage of their growth. Today’s modern seed treatment products meet high safety and efficacy standards. The new active substances and formulations provide long lasting, broad spectrum, systemic control of diseases and insects. They are cost-effective and exhibit enhanced efficacy against various pests.
