Biological Seed Treatment Market Dynamics

Driver: Growing Demand for Pesticide-free Crops

Microbial strains or combinations of various strains are applied on seeds during the seed treatment process to offer them increased protection from various pests and diseases. Biologicals used are nature-derived raw materials such as plants, bacteria, and fungi. Agrochemical manufacturers, such as Bayer AG and Syngenta Company, have carried out extensive research to find a close relation between microbes and plants that help in formulating better raw material composition for seed treatment. Improved raw material composition increases the seed nutrient uptake and protects it from pests. According to research conducted by The Energy and Resource Institute (TERI), New Delhi, India biological seed treatment of corn, soybeans, cotton, and cereal grains has resulted in increased yield of up to ten percent.

Driver: Reduction in Chemical Residues

Farmers use various fertilizers and pesticides, among other agricultural chemicals, to control insect pests, and diseases, and boost the quality and yield of the product. Unnecessary and excessive use of these chemicals leaves traces in the plant body. The presence of these chemicals above the maximum acceptable level increases the risk and may have an impact on human health upon their consumption. Biological seed treatment boosts the immunity and resistance of plants against pests and diseases and thus reduces the need for external fertilizers, pesticides, and insecticides. Reduction in the use of chemicals helps in maintaining low chemical residue and reduces soil pollution. Over the last decade, North America, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific, has shown an increasing demand for seed treatment supported by growing health awareness and stringent regulations for the export of grains and food.

Restraint: Lower Shelf Life of Treated Seeds

Seeds once treated with organisms, cannot be sold as grain or used as a food ingredient. The excess production of biologically treated seeds is undesirable owing to its limited shelf life, especially for seeds such as soybean, its sprout, and vigor reduce relatively faster in comparison to other treated crop seeds. This disadvantage has made manufacturers produce treated seeds in limited quantities, which has resulted in the limited availability of the product in the market. Dry microbial formulations made using a variety of carriers have low shelf life owing to temperature sensitivity and the presence of moisture in the mixture. To maintain higher shelf life, the moisture content of the carrier needs to be maintained by storing at colder temperatures or manufacturers should produce a complete dry formulation with a low bacterial population, which can be stored at room temperature for a long period.
