Seed Treatment Market Overview
Global Seed Treatment Market is expected to reach $7.8 billion by 2021, growing at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2015 - 2021. The insecticide segment held a dominant share in this market in 2015 and is expected to maintain its leading position during forecast period. Seed treatment involves the application of biological, physical, and chemical agents during planting to improve the health of crops.
It helps to control soil- and seed-borne infections and diseases. In addition, it improves the yield of crops, reduces germination time, and enhances overall productivity. Seed treatment has emerged as a cost-effective crop protection solution as compared to conventional spraying as it is more efficient and less labor intensive.
In seed treatment, only planting seeds are coated with treating agent; therefore, low amount of active ingredients is required for protection against a variety of fungal diseases and insect pests. Increasing prices of genetically modified (GM) seeds have fostered the need for crop protection to reduce the risk on investment.

Asia-Pacific Review:
Asia-Pacific holds around 9% share in global seed treatment market. The Asian countries such as China and India are expected to show a strong growth in terms of agricultural output. This is expected to fuel the seed treatment market in Asia-Pacific region. In addition, biological seed treatments are emerging as a growth market in the Asia-Pacific region. Most countries in this region are yet to establish a proper system for registration, manufacture, and sales of biological seed treatment. This provided huge growth potential for companies to expand their presence in the Asia-Pacific biological seed treatment market. Major companies present in the Asia-Pacific seed treatment market are Bayer CropScience and Syngenta along with other local companies such as Tata Rallis and Shenghua Group Agrochemicals.
The use of agrochemicals in Asia-Pacific has increased in recent years due to the decreasing arable land in India, China, and Southeast Asia. This is expected to provide growth opportunity for the Asia-Pacific seed treatment market in order to meet the food demand.
