North America Biostimulant Market

The North America biostimulant market is estimated to be valued at USD 0.95 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 1.69 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 12.1% during the forecast period. This market is among the fastest-growing globally, driven by the growing adoption of sustainable, organic, and regenerative farming practices. Growers are seeking solutions that maximize crop yields and enhance resilience to abiotic stresses such as drought, temperature fluctuations, and soil degradation. A supportive regulatory environment, incentives for sustainable agricultural practices, and the rise of organic certification programs in the US, Canada, and Mexico have accelerated this adoption. The US market is particularly robust, due to advanced agronomic practices and significant investments in biological inputs. Meanwhile, Canada benefits from large-scale cereal and oilseed production, and Mexico has opportunities in its high-value horticulture crops.

Key drivers of market growth include rising concerns about food security, soil health, and environmental impact. However, challenges such as high product costs, regulatory complexities, and uneven awareness among farmers persist. Additionally, advanced formulations utilizing seaweed extracts, amino acids, and microbial solutions are gaining traction, especially in conjunction with precision agriculture technologies.

Corteva Agriscience (US)

Corteva Agriscience is a leading player in the North America biostimulant market, utilizing its robust agricultural research and development capabilities along with a deep understanding of regional cropping systems. The company focuses on biological and biostimulant solutions that enhance nutrient use efficiency, improve root development, and increase crop resilience to abiotic stresses, such as drought and temperature fluctuations. Corteva’s biostimulant products are increasingly being integrated as complementary tools within crop management programs for cereals, oilseeds, and specialty crops across the US and Canada.

In North America, Corteva benefits from a broad distribution network and strong relationships with growers, which facilitate the rapid adoption of its biostimulant technologies. The company integrates biostimulants with precision agriculture platforms and data-driven agronomy to achieve measurable performance outcomes. Its focus on sustainability, regenerative agriculture, and biological innovation aligns well with changing regulatory frameworks and the growing demand from farmers for eco-friendly inputs. This alignment strengthens Corteva's competitive position in the regional biostimulant market.

In June 2024, Corteva further expanded its biological and biostimulants portfolio with the rollout of Kinsidro Grow+, a plant growth stimulant designed to enhance early root and shoot development. The product supports improved nutrient uptake and stress tolerance, reflecting Corteva’s strategy to integrate biostimulants into holistic crop performance programs across North America, aligned with regenerative agriculture and sustainability goals.

Syngenta Group (Switzerland)

Syngenta Group is a Swiss corporation that specializes in crop protection and seed production, as well as innovative products that enhance agricultural productivity. In North America, the company focuses on promoting and marketing bio- and microbial biostimulants. These products improve nutrient-use efficiency, enhance stress tolerance, and boost crop productivity, particularly in high-value crops such as rice, wheat, and vegetables.

This company is known for its advanced research, coupled with digital agronomy platforms and integrated crop management solutions, that ensure optimized plant growth and resilience. Syngenta’s biostimulants are thus intended for sustainable intensification, reduced chemical dependency, and country-specific agri-related issues, which align more closely with the eco-friendly practices North America has recently adopted in agriculture.

In August 2024, Syngenta Biologicals presented MEGAFOL, a plant-extract-based biostimulant designed to help crops recover from climatic stress and promote balanced vegetative development and productivity. MEGAFOL contains a blend of vitamins, amino acids, proteins, and betaines that support growth under stress conditions.
