A recent report published by Infinium Global Research on seed market provides an in-depth analysis of segments and sub-segments in global as well as regional seed market. The study also highlights the impact of drivers, restraints, and macro indicators on the global and regional seed market over the short term as well as long term. The report is a comprehensive presentation of trends, forecast and dollar values of the global seed market. According to the report, the global seed market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% over the forecast period of 2018-2024.
A seed is a protective structure
that lets a plant embryo survive for long periods of time before it germinates.
The seed is a basic necessity for agricultural production of crops as the
quality of the seed is one of the factors determining the achievement of the harvest
and the quality of the product. Seed propagation increases genetic variation
forming hybrids with superior qualities. Timely availability of quality seeds
in adequate quantity decides the health and strength of an agricultural
economy. High-quality seeds such as hybrid seeds offer better yield,
significant uniformity, enhanced color, and disease resistance to the resulting
plants.
Biotech crops are considered to
be the fastest adopted crop technology in the history of modern agriculture.
Thus, the requirement to increase the food production and increasing acceptance
of area under cultivation of Genetically Modified (GM) crops drive the growth
of the seed market. Genetically modified (GM) crops have many potential
advantages in terms of raising agricultural productivity and reducing the need
for environmentally harmful pesticides. Genetically Modified crops can be
engineered to last longer once harvest which makes it possible to extend the
distribution life of the food product. That makes it possible to use the
existing infrastructure for food distribution to send healthy foods further
around the world. Moreover, awareness among the farmers is increasing about the
hybrid seeds that is driving the growth of the market. These factors are
boosting the growth of the seed market. In addition, diversification of diets
and increasing use of wasteland for agriculture is further strengthening the
growth of the seed market. However, low awareness of genetically engineered
crops is likely to curtail the growth of the seed market. Furthermore, the
introduction of new technologies along with the potential benefits over the
conventional seeds are anticipated to create several growth opportunities for
the key players in the seed market. On the other hand, the high growth
potential in emerging markets and untapped regions provide new growth
opportunities for the market players. Adoption of commercial farming and
increasing awareness about scientific and good agricultural farming practices
can create lucrative opportunities for the market.
Among the geographies, North
America dominated the global seed market. Asia-Pacific region is the second
biggest seed market in the world. The leading position of the North American
region is due to the adoption of GMO seeds and hybridization of seeds in large
scale. Moreover, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest growing region.
An outstanding growth is observed in this region for the seed market over the
past few years due to the support from governments as well as national and international
associations to increase the agricultural production of oil, grains, fruits,
and vegetables to meet the need for food products.
In the case of fruits and
vegetables, India ranks at number 16 in the global fruits and vegetable seed
exports. Rising awareness among the farmers related to the benefits of using
certified quality seeds has led to an increase in the demand for seeds over the
past few years in the Asia-Pacific region. Moreover, several factors, including
increased subsidies and improved government thrust on the use of high yielding
varieties will lead to increased productivity in the seed market. Now with more
countries opening up for genetic modification cultivation, there exists huge
potential to export Cotton seeds from India.
