Biological seed treatment includes microorganisms used for protecting seeds against seed and soil borne diseases, hence this is more effective alternative to the chemical treatments. The high-value industrial crops are those which are high yielding and provide higher net per hectare of product produced. These include crops such as sugarcane, cotton, hybrid maize (corn), soybean, potatoes, spices, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs.

For these high yielding crops, the companies are investing more in R&D activities to design innovative biological products that can align with the requirements of different geographies and soil conditions. These companies include Bayer AG (Germany), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), and other commercial, private companies globally. The Bayer Crop Science R&D team is continuously focusing on converting the industry leading value-driven investment into innovative products that benefit growers, consumers, and the planet.

In 2020, Bayer’s pipeline commercialized ten crop protection formulations; advanced three key biotech products in order to provide farmers around the globe with more than 430 new commercialized hybrids like varieties of corn, soybeans, cotton, and vegetables. Also, Syngenta AG (Switzerland) launched biological seed-applied nematicide for cyst nematodes, which has a high scope for adoption in the US, Brazil, and Canada. These trends projects to impact the growth of biological seed treatment market significantly.

Biological Seed Treatment Market Dynamics

Driver: Environmental concerns associated with chemical seed treatment

The demand for biological seed treatment has significantly increased as a result of high awareness of their potential and the growing attention to the environmental and health risks associated with conventional chemicals. Chemical seed treatments are detrimental to the environment and pose a serious risk to pollinators. The neonicotinoid class of insecticides is considered highly toxic to honeybees. Microorganisms employed as active substances in pest management are recognized as generally safe for the environment and non-target species, in comparison with synthetic chemicals.

Can Government Regulations Boost This Market

The regulatory environment for active biological ingredients differs between countries and regions. Generally, authorities around the world recognize that biological seed treatment products are beneficial but different from chemical plant protection products. Moreover, this recognition has not necessarily led to consistent approaches in regulatory requirements or review processes. In some countries, biologicals are registered under specific legislation or they may be registered in a similar manner as chemical plant protection products. At times, there are reduced data requirements, and other times there may be no well-defined process at all for their registration.

Opportunities: Use of bio-priming techniques for improved efficacy

Bio-priming is a process of a biological seed treatment that refers to a combination of seed hydration and inoculation of the seed with microbes. In most cases, microbial inoculants, such as plant growth-promoting rhizo-microorganisms (bacteria or fungi), are used for the purpose of bio-priming of seeds. It is an environment-friendly ecological approach using selected microorganisms that enhance plant growth by producing plant growth-promoting substances, enhancing nutrient uptake, or protecting seedlings/plants against soil-/seed-borne plant pathogenic organisms.

The use of such techniques is on the rise as chemicals used for seed treatment mostly act as contact fungicides that are unable to protect the plants from foliar pathogens during the later stages of crop growth.

Challenges: Inconsistent performance and incompatibility with certain pesticides

The features of biological seed treatments that have discouraged investment are their inconsistent results. The most common problems encountered during the usage of such products include desiccation and environmental conditions that discourage their growth. Successful inoculants with one crop may not work as effectively with another crop. For instance, Trichoderma is more effective for the increase in yield in tomatoes than cucumbers. Choosing just one or two microbes is not as effective as loading with an entire community. However, effectiveness can sometimes be increased by a combination of microbes, with various growth requirements. For instance, fungi can be combined with PGPR.

Fastest-growing segment by crop type: Soybean

The soybean crop requires significant exposure to nitrogen for growth and development, which can be supplied through biological fixation by seed inoculants. Hence, the market for biological seed treatment in soybean is projected to grow at a fastest rate during the forecast period. Bio-nematicide seed treatments help protect the roots from soybean cyst nematode (SCN) feeding by parasitizing the nematode, inhibiting nerve transmission, or creating a protective barrier around the roots to repel nematodes

Fastest-growing segment by type: Microbials segment

The biological seed treatment market, by type, has been segmented into microbials, botanicals, and others (biofermentation products and natural polymers & derivatives). The microbials industry dominated the market in 2020, due to the increasing demand for microbial seed treatments, in field crops such as soybean and corn.

Many key companies, such as Bayer AG (Germany), Syngenta Group (Switzerland), and Corteva Agriscience (US), offer innovative biological 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 biological seed treatment.

Fastest-growing segment by function: Seed protection segment

On the basis of function, the global market has broadly been segmented into seed enhancement and seed protection. Biological seed treatments aimed at seed protection provide targeted control of certain pests and fungal diseases during the early seedling stage. Biological seed treatments are used on multiple crops to control a variety of pests. It ensures uniform stand establishment through defense against numerous soil-borne pathogens and insects.

Biological Seed Treatment Market by Region

North America region’s increasing preference for high quality produce

The increasing agricultural practices and requirement of high-quality agricultural produce are factors that are projected to drive the biological seed treatment market growth in this region. The government policies adopted by developed countries for the ban on key active ingredients are the major factors encouraging the growth of this market in North America region. Hence, North America is projected to be the fastest-growing region in the global market. R&D investments for the development of biological seed treatment and installation of new production capacities by key players are projected to drive the market growth in the next five years.
