Seeds Market
Seeds Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Type (Genetically Modified and Conventional), Breeding Technology (Hybrids, Open Pollinated Varieties & Hybrid Derivatives, and Other Breeding Technologies), Cultivation Mechanism (Protected Cultivation, Open Field and Other Cultivation Mechanisms), Crop Type (Cereals & Grains, Fruits & Vegetables, Oilseeds & Pulses and Other Crop Types), Seed Treatment, Availability and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Seeds Market is accounted for $66.85 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $119.09 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.6% during the forecast period. The reproductive unit of the parent plant is the seed, which is a seedling plant covered in a protective covering. They play a significant role in agriculture and provide food for many different animal species. The role of seed in the agriculture industry has increased significantly over the past several decades as a consequence of technical developments and the subsequent introduction of enhanced seed varieties.
According to the Executive Director of the Federation of Seed Industry in India, the reduction in onsite staff, implementation of multiple shifts, social distancing, frequent sanitization of plants, and regular health monitoring of staff led to reduced productivity at Indian seed processing plants.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
An increase in the use of hybrid vegetable seeds
To meet the needs of farmers and consumers, hybrid seeds are created. Adaptability, nutrition, taste, yield, colour, form, size, cooking quality, flavour, and shelf life are just a few of the traits that hybrid vegetables possess. Due to their advantages over non-hybrid seeds, hybrid seeds are becoming more and more popular. Utilising hybrid vegetable planting seeds enables farmers to protect their crops from a variety of environmental stresses, including pests and plant diseases. These seeds also have the potential for large yields and reliable performance all year long. In the last three decades, farmers' acceptance of hybrid seeds has also fuelled the expansion of several seed firms, which also forces the businesses to provide high-quality seeds.
Restraint:
Climate changes
A key problem for agricultural output worldwide is climate change. Crop output is strongly impacted by climate changes, and crops are vulnerable to pests and diseases. This has an impact on crop health and changes how farming is done. The seasonal effects of temperature, precipitation, and humidity on disease and its formation and propagation on seed material, which causes significant crop loss, have also been demonstrated by decades of research. Consequently, the production of vegetables is impacted by a change in temperature and an increase in air moisture content.
Opportunity:
Growing knowledge on the advantages of eating vegetables
The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that 1.7 million deaths worldwide are related to inadequate or nonexistent fruit and vegetable intake. One of the top 10 risk factors for death worldwide is also the inadequate diet of fruits and vegetables. Therefore, eating fruits and vegetables in a regular diet may assist both rich and emerging economies avoid serious non-vegetable problems. In order to increase vegetable output, producers all over the world are utilising a variety of agricultural inputs, including high-quality vegetable planting seeds.
Threat:
Low crop yield in places with inadequate irrigation
Rice, corn, wheat, groundnuts, rapeseed, mustard, soybean, sunflower, and safflower are the main crops grown in emerging nations. As a result of their application in the food, feed, and chemical sectors, these goods account for a sizeable portion of the worldwide seeds industry. These crops' seeds are in more demand, which drives up the need for crops with higher production, greater resilience to drought, and improved insect resistance. However, the production of crops is largely dependent on the rainfall in emerging nations like India, South Africa, and Turkey, which lowers productivity. Thus, it is evident that farms without irrigation systems are less productive than fields with irrigation systems.
Covid-19 Impact
During the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 epidemic had a significant impact on the certification, manufacturing, distribution, and price of seeds. Additionally, the agricultural and resilient food systems in the economically underdeveloped nations were greatly impacted by this epidemic. Lack of labourers for the transportation, production, and documentation procedures, together with a decline in the availability of seeds and plants on the market, made it difficult to produce seeds for international commerce.
The hybrids segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The hybrids segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to the rising demand for hybrid and open-pollinated seeds from organic farmers, the animal feed, food, and biofuel industries. Due to its numerous advantages, such as increased production, greater flexibility, and a high level of tolerance to biotic and abiotic challenges, hybrid seeds have seen rapid expansion, mostly from the major agriculture-producing countries. Their superior ability to absorb environmental changes is largely responsible for their greater flexibility. By altering the DNA of the seeds and plant cells, new plant breeding techniques are enabling the creation of new plant kinds with desired features. Plant breeding advancements are assisting in overcoming the difficulties farmers have on the farm every day.
The protected cultivation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The protected cultivation segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to growing vegetables in greenhouses and other temperature controlled spaces. Due to the many advantages that protected farming provides, including higher crop efficiency, climatic control, and less input needs for agriculture, there is an increasing demand for seed cultivation in protected environments.
Region with largest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the main drivers of the market in this region are the expanding agricultural sector, growing public awareness of the health advantages of vegetables, and expanding horticulture crop land. The main nations in the region with high vegetable production and consumption are China and India. The dominance of the area in the global market would also be supported by the fact that China is a major worldwide market.
Region with highest CAGR:
Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to due to the quick development of breeding methods that result in the creation of high-quality vegetable planting seeds; the European market will see significant demand. Additionally, the area is a major producer of fruits and vegetables, and the expansion is due to an increase in global vegetable commerce. The country's expanding demand for hybrid tomato, lettuce, and sweet pepper seeds is boosting the industry.
