Overview
Global Biological Seed Treatment Market reached US$ 1265.7 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 2377.6 million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period 2023-2030.
The application of helpful microbes or natural compounds to seeds to increase their growth, protect them from illnesses, and improve general plant health is referred to as biological seed treatment. As the need for ecologically friendly and sustainable agricultural practices increases, farmers and producers are exploring alternatives to chemical-based treatments. Biological seed treatment is a less hazardous way to protect crops and promote growth.
In addition, biological seed treatment minimizes pesticide use, lowering grower exposure to chemicals and their environmental impact. According to the European Environment Agency, in 22% of all monitoring sites in rivers and lakes across Europe in 2020, one or more pesticides were discovered above concern criteria. Pesticide residues were found in 83% of agricultural soils evaluated in a 2019 study. Pesticide pollution is a major cause of biodiversity loss in Europe. It significantly reduces insect populations, threatening their important role in food production.
Dynamics
Rising Demand for High-Quality Agricultural Products
Demand for high-quality agricultural products is expected to rise as consumers become more aware of the importance of food safety and quality. Biological seed treatments can contribute significantly to meeting this demand by improving crop yields, quality, and safety. For instance, KWS has spent many years working to advance biologicals. Due to a new stabilization process, beneficial microorganisms can now be preserved in microbeads and used as a seed treatment for a variety of crops, marking an industry first. Following intensive development with the biotech company Evologic Technologies, KWS launched its first seed treatment product based on preserved beneficial bacteria on September 30, 2021.
In addition, biological seed treatments can help to reduce crop damage by protecting seeds from pests and diseases. Higher-quality crops are less likely to be rejected by buyers as a result of this. Chemical seed treatments have the potential to pollute the environment while also harming beneficial insects. Biological seed treatments are a more environmentally friendly option that can aid in environmental protection.
Growing Demand for Organic and Sustainable Agriculture
Consumers are increasingly demanding organic and sustainable food products, resulting in an increase in demand for biological seed treatment. According to the FiBL survey 2021, India is one of only 187 countries that practice organic agriculture. With 2.30 million ha, India accounts for 30% of the world's total organic producers. Total organic cultivation area, 27,59,660 farmers, 1703 processors, and 745 traders. In recent years, there has been a significant relative increase in organic agricultural land across the country. As the demand for organic farming grows, there will be more opportunities for biological seed treatment.
In addition, biological seed treatment methods are also viewed as a more environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to chemical seed treatment. Biological seed treatments, which will be an alternative to chemical seed treatment, are made from renewable resources and contain naturally occurring active ingredients aimed at protecting against soil-borne pathogens, alleviating abiotic stress, and increasing plant growth. As a result, farmers' demand for organic and sustainable agricultural products will drive market growth during the forecast period.
Limited Duration of Protection
Biological seed treatments typically provide less protection than chemical seed treatments. This is due to the fact that the beneficial microorganisms used in biological treatments may have a shorter lifespan or activity period when compared to the long-term effects of synthetic chemical pesticides. While chemical treatments can provide long-term protection, biological seed treatments rely more on the activity of living microorganisms, which can be influenced by environmental conditions and plant interactions.
Furthermore, the various factors associated with biological seed treatment's limited duration of protection. Environmental conditions, microorganism viability, seed storage limitations, and supplemental treatments are all factors in biological seed treatment. As a result, these constraints have hampered the growth of the biological seed treatment market.
