How Seed Industry is positioned in the US?
USA is the
third largest country in the world by area of lands its holds under its
jurisdiction. An estimated more than ~ million acre of land is used for
cropland where multiple crops are grown over the year. Corn, Soybean and Wheat
are the three major crops by the area under cultivation. Together they
accounted for more than ~ million acres of land under cultivation in 2018.
Nebraska had the largest share of U.S. irrigated area followed by California.
The industry has been inculcated with an increasing role of private seed
companies, growing presence of multinational seed companies with an enhanced
focus on biotechnology and extensive changes in regulatory frameworks which
have affected the seed marketing and trade over the years. Majority of the
irrigation facilities are located in the western part of the country which
accounts for more than ~% of the irrigated land in the US. The United States
has an average of ~ million acres of farm land and about ~ million farms on an
average. In the matured markets like that of the US, farm mechanization covers
100% large sized lands. Farms have become more specialized and mechanized by
the year 2018 due to which the number of commodities produced per farm has
decreased, the average farm size increased from ~ acres in 2012 to about ~
acres in 2018.
The major
grain crops in the US are planted during the period of May to July. Many major
US crops such as Cotton, Soybean and Corn are planted during the period. In
2018, more than ~- ~% of the US seed crops are planted using GM/GE/Hybrid
seeds.
The top five
companies merged with each other to form three large corporations. These
mergers were targeted with aim to integrate seed and crop protection business.
Major mergers and acquisitions between year 2016 and 2018 are Bayer-Monsanto at
USD ~ billion, BASF- Bayer at USD ~ billion, Dow-DuPont with a combined market
cap of USD ` billion, ChemChina- Syngenta at USD ~billion etc..
The revenue
at retail price generated from domestic sale of Seed
in the US Market increased from USD ~ billion in 2015 to ~ billion in
2018. The market was largely stagnant as it is highly matured and competitive.

planted showed a negative growth rate of ~ %. Illinois ranked first in the
maximum soybean plantation in the US with almost ~ million acres followed by
Iowa which planted about ~ million acres.
Overall

exports were projected down as approximately ~ million bushels.
US produced
~ million bushels of soybean seeds valued at USD ~ millions in year 2018 which
was less than year 2017.
The US
plants ~% of the total soybean as genetically engineered variety which are
mostly herbicide-tolerant.
State of
Mississippi plants ~% of GE variety which is followed by South Dakota and
Arkansas with ~% of GE plantation.
How Corn Seed Market Is Positioned in the US?
Corn or
maize is known to be an incredibly important crop in the US. Corn is the main
ingredient in the production of ethanol which is a gasoline additive. Corn is
planted and harvested in almost all 50 states of USA but the production is

negative growth rate of around ~ % when compared with the planted area in year
2017.
Overall
production of corn in year 2018 was recorded to be nearly ~ billion bushels
valued at around USD ~ million. In 2017, the US produced approximately ~
billion bushels of corn. The growth rate recorded was negative ~% in year 2018.

~ million in 2017. It recorded a growth rate of approximately ~% in year 2018.
Corn seed price was estimated at about USD ~ per acre.
The US corn
crop market is largely genetically modified and plants ~% of the total corn as
genetically engineered variety which are mostly stacked gene varieties ~%)
which are combination of herbicide-tolerant (~%) and Insect-resistant (Bt)
(~%).
