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..

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?
