“Adoption of GM/GE seeds for cultivating Corn and Soybean will be the key
driver for commercial seed market in the US. The trend is expected to remain
the same in the next few years.”
The US seeds market is in the
matured stage and has shown a positive growth in the period 2013-2018. Corn
Soybean and Vegetable and Seed Market are the three largest segments of the US
Seed industry. Corn seed segment dominates the US seed market with innovations
in seed and its traits for better yield and germination rates which ensures its
maximum growth. USA ranks first amongst the major producers of soybean in
global soy markets with nearly a third of the world’s soybean production. Major
agricultural states include California, Texas, Illinois, Nebraska and Iowa. The
US organic sector continues its upward trajectory, gaining new market share and
shattering records as consumers are using more organic products than ever
before. Organic food now accounts for 5.5% of total food sales in the US and
the seeds are sold at premium. The US is the largest market for organic food in
2018.
More than 5 million Acre of organic
farm land was there in the United States in year 2018 with an average growth
rate of 3%. Organic acreage is increasing in most areas of the US, while
transitioning to organic corn and soybean acreage is challenging in some Corn
Belt areas.
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 by
approximately 2.5%in 2018.
The top five companies merged with
each other to form three large corporations. These mergers were targeted with
an aim to integrate seed and crop protection business. The seed market is
characterized by moderate competition due to the presence of a number of large-
and small-scale firms. The market is dominated by players such as The Monsanto
Company (Bayer Group), Dow DuPont Inc., Syngenta Seeds, and Agreliant Genetics.
These collectively accounted for the largest portion of the seed market in
2018. New product launches, acquisitions, agreements, and expansions are the
key strategies adopted by players to ensure their growth in this market.
The report titled, “US Seed Market Outlook to 2023 By Type of Seed (Corn,
Soybean, Cotton, Wheat, Sorghum, and Vegetables) and By Technology
(GM/GE/Hybrid and Open Pollinated)” by Ken Research observed that the
innovations in product development and R&D in gene technology such as
launch of various new and improved GM seeds and traits will complement the
conventional seed use and it will have positive impact on the overall seed and
agriculture market.
