The global seed treatment market was valued at $4.8 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach $9.3 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2019 to 2026. Seed treatment involves the application of biological, physical, and chemical agents during planting to improve the health of crops. It helps 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. Increase in prices of genetically modified (GM) seeds have fostered the need for crop protection to reduce the risk on investment. Furthermore, increased food requirement because of rapidly increasing global population fuels the market growth. However, short shelf life of treated seeds and conflicting government regulations restrain the growth of the global seed treatment market.
The global seed treatment market is segmented on the basis of product, treatment method, application, and region. Depending on product, the market is classified into insecticide, fungicide, bio-control, and others. On the basis of treatment method, it is categorized into seed coating, seed dressing, and seed pelleting. Based on application, the market is bifurcated into seed treatment and seed enhancement. On the basis of crop type, the market is classified into cereals & grains, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables, and others. Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The key players operating in the global seed treatment market are BASF SE, Bayer AG, Corteva Inc., Croda International Plc, Dupont, Novo Nordisk A/S, Nufarm Limited, Sumitomo Chemical, Syngenta AG, and Tata Chemicals Ltd.

According to the report, titled, ' Seed Treatment Market by Product, Crop Type, Treatment Method, and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019-2026,' the global market is expected to reach $9.3 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 8.1% during the period 2019 - 2026. The insecticide segment held a dominant share in this market in 2018 and is expected to maintain its leading position during forecast period. The cereals & grains crop segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The global seed treatment market size is expected to grow at a substantial pace due to its cost effectiveness and efficiency over traditional pesticides making it at better crop protection solution. The cost associated with agrochemicals application for seed treatment is low as only seeds surface needs to be covered with agrochemicals as compared to spraying or a soil application. Factors that fuel the market growth are increasing prices of genetically modified (GM) crops, rapidly growing population, rising food requirement and need for crop protection with emergence of new pest and diseases. Furthermore, high investment in commercial and value-added seeds are augmenting the growth of the Seed Treatment Market in order to ensure better performance.
The insecticide segment contributed for more than half of the market share in the overall market in 2018. The attribute of ability to formulate with the combination of two or more seed treatment chemicals, such as combination of two insecticide or combination of insecticide and fungicide, has led to an extensive use of insecticide in seed treatment. Along with this, its potential to manage several early-season insects effectively is another reason attributed to its sustained dominance in the seed treatment market. Thiamethoxam, imidacloprid, and clothianidin are few leading active ingredients used in insecticides, which belong to the neonicotinoid of insecticides. Bio-control seed treatment is widely preferred owing to its non-toxic nature and its favorable effects on yield. Bio-control seed treatment helps to increase crops efficiency in nutrient uptake and protect the crops with minimum no residue. It is projected to be the fastest growing segment a during the forecast period.
The use of seed treatment in the cereals & grains segment would continue to dominate the market from 2018 to 2026. This is primarily due to the high global production of grains such as corn, rice, and wheat. The growth in these crop productions is associated with the adoption of modern agricultural technology in farming. These crops are widely treated against seed and soil-borne insects, diseases, and nematodes.
