Improving Economic Trends To Propel Growth In The Vietnamese Seed Industry-Ken Research

The practice of agriculture globally is respected as a magical power that can result in reduction of poverty, rising incomes and improved food security for nearly 80% of the world's poor, especially for those who live in rural areas and work in the farming sector.

Over the years, according to Seed Market Research Reports, Vietnam’s agricultural sector has experienced a persistent and impressive change. The seed industry has been recently observed to shift positively, promoting a planned economy and has begun to emerge via the support of a new governing legislation. The system changes including more liberalization of input and new techniques applied in output marketing have established an institutional transformation and thereby resulted in significant development of this sector, particularly rice production.

Today, current exports average of rice stands somewhere around 6-7 million tons per annum. Vietnam is thus the world’s fifth-largest rice-producing country having local centers and institutes that have bred around 260 inbred rice varieties along with nearly 70 hybrid rice varieties as per the Vietnam Seed Industry Research Report. It has been witnessed that in order to spread seed production in the country; in-country training programs are usually organized that well make the seed growers aware about various methods involved in the evolving seed technology and with time, the number of such trainings has augmented on its own since the significance of this industry is well realized. Generally, such trainings are carried out by different organizations like: the local extensions department, the hybrid rice research center, and ADB/IRRI project. The key players that currently prevail in the Vietnamese seed industry constitute: Vietnam National Seed Joint Stock Company, Southern Seed Company, Bioseed Company Vietnam, Dekalb Vietnam Company Ltd. (Monsanto), Syngenta Vietnam,  and East-West Seed. All these players are putting in their best efforts to function effectively and end up meeting the final goal of holistic economic progress.

However, it has been identified on proper scrutiny of Vietnam Seed Industry Analysis that F1 seed production of rice has relatively dwindled in the recent years majorly due to near about 10% decline in the subsidies from government and increase in the cost of inputs like fertilizer chemicals and labor. Though, with the help of joint ventures of foreign seed production companies, which purchased exclusive rights to produce and sell hybrid rice seeds; the use of input-responsive modern varieties, sufficient fertilizers, along with a rise in the proportion of rice area under irrigation have been encountered that is expected to ameliorate the current situation in the coming years by focusing on producing high yields throughout.

Besides that, it has been investigated that maize has been Vietnam’s second largest annual crop, after rice, in terms of cultivated area and due to its increasing importance, the local maize production has not been enough to suffice the demand in the recent years; resulting in the import of maize at volumes of about 2 million tons every year and consequently, nowadays, hybrid maize has replaced the old OPV cultivars and traditional maize varieties and currently accounts for as high as 89% of the total maize grown in the country.

Even, the production of chilies and peppers have played a crucial role in the seed sector since Vietnam happens to be one of the major producers of chili and pepper, which fall under the top vegetable crops, economically. Furthermore, Vietnam Market Research Reports for Seed depict that with the motive of achieving higher efficiency and effectiveness in seed production market, the top companies are aiming to develop the overall seed production technologies. For instance: companies like Vinaseed and Thai Binh Seed have modern drying, processing and packaging systems, which can control up to 70.5% of seed production technology and these technologies are eventually bound to be triggered by innovation in the long run.

Geographically, Vietnam has been one of the largest importers of seeds in the Asia-Pacific region and nearly 83% of the total seeds are sourced by Vietnam since the country imports billions of dollars worth of products every year. According to Ken Research Seed Market Research Reports Consulting services in accordance with the stable growth rates of the market, the valuation is further envisioned to reach around USD 1.7 billion by 2020 since the demand for merchandise seeds is projected to amplify by twofold, accounting for near about 70 percent of the total plantation area in the next five years. These forecasted trends show that Vietnam possesses a lucrative soil for many multinational agriculture groups like Mosanto (US), CP Group (Thailand), Syngenta (Switzerland), Vilmorin (France), East West (the Netherlands), Bayer CropScience (Germany) and Sakata (Japan) to cultivate. Therefore, the industry is all set to open up great avenues for all the seed producers globally, as the years roll by and simultaneously continue with its expansion.

Emergence of Smart Technology in Residential and Commercial Real Estate: Ken Research

Introduction: The concept of building automation is not new. Companies selling high price real estate have included automation software for basic tasks in security and reception systems for commercial spaces since the early 2000’s. But given the rate of adoption of sensors and the level of growth of smart technology, there is an expectation that building automation will soon become one of the core components of the real estate and construction industry as automation and robots will cause a reduction in construction time, reduce the level of error in construction, reduce wastage as they will be programmed to optimize their resources available and finally will increase the value of the property 
Building Automation: With the home automation and smart home market expected to increase from USD 4.4 Billion in 2013 to USD 21 Billion in 2020, consumers are welcoming more technology into their lives. In fact, smart home technologies are now a desired feature sought out by families looking to purchase a house and for companies looking to establish a new office space. The increasing capacity of IoT devices is one of the major driving factors behind the implementation of technology based smart buildings. Real Estate Business Review estimates that about 10-40% of the devices implemented in IoT will be a part of building automation for commercial and residential purposes. Sensor deployment in the sector is likely to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 78.8 % between 2015 and 2020 to nearly 1.3 billion. Although the primary demand driver for IoT technology is the adoption of sensors for data collection and analytics, the main devices implemented will be wearable technology and smart appliances which are capable of being controlled by a single central device. Companies working with sensor technology have already begun offering wireless integration solutions for home automation including sensor systems for appliances, electronics and security systems. The growing adoption of sensor technology combined with artificial intelligence is leading to creation of robots which can work, or be programmed to work on construction at much faster speeds and with much better effectiveness than human labor and for smart home solutions which are capable of serving the occupants of the buildings for specific tasks.  The integration of machines will lead to better made, more sophisticated buildings where HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) will become a standard feature.  Improved security systems will be able to differentiate residents from strangers as well.
Market Scenario: Statistics indicate the priority levels for individuals that are the upcoming customers for the real estate sector on preference of their homes:
Safety is the highest motivating factor to purchase smart home tech. Nearly 68 % of homeowners want smart tech to become more energy efficient. Millennials desire smart tech to make their lives more convenient. Baby Boomers use smart tech to add value to their homes. Around 45 % of homeowners save money, thanks to home automation, averaging more than USD 1100 per year. The changing market paradigm is due to increased adoption of technology from the baby boomer generation indicating that even the elderly population believes in understanding the benefits offered to technology. The homeowners of the future which will belong to the millennial generation are comfortable with the integration of technology into their everyday life and the most important aspect being the automation factor which is believed to boost home value.
Competition Scenario: Some of the key manufacturers involved in the market for smart technology solutions are Siemens AG, United Technologies Corporation, General Electric Company, Schneider Electric, Honeywell International, Inc., Ingersoll-Rand PLC, Johnson Controls, Inc., ABB Ltd., Legrand S.A. Acquisitions and effective mergers are some of the strategies adopted by the key manufacturers.
Opportunity: There is a clear opportunity for the upcoming building automation sector to make a growing contribution into real estate. The commercial and residential properties of the future will have a large amount of smart technology either already integrated or will have the capacity for integration of IoT. The implementation of this technology will likely be a standard in buildings in the upcoming 5 to 15 years with more adoption of IoT only speeding the process. This presents an opportunity for developers in growing economies that have a higher amount of individuals with disposable incomes to bring in the smart homes of the future as the technology is not commercial yet it has exclusivity and hence commands a premium for its level of sophistication. The added advantage of smart homes being poised to be worth over USD 4 Billion by 2020 will result growth of the smart home market for individual homes as well as for smart residential apartments coupled with sophisticated custom made offices. The introduction of AI into the building automation sector can lower costs and increase the customer value effectively generating higher profitability for the commercial and real estate sector.

The Potential For Wema Maize In Developing Economies-Ken Research

Introduction: While the African hunger crisis is a situation the world has known about for a while, there is still a requirement for significant measures towards improving the food shortage scenario. The cost of the hunger crisis in Africa is adversely affecting the health and the well being, thereby affecting the economy of the continent. The situation itself is in dire need of reform- there are more stunted children in Africa now than 20 years ago. Between 69 to 82 % of the total cases of children under nutrition are not properly treated. Most of the health costs associated with under nutrition occurs before the child turns one. Between 7 to 16 percent of repetitions in school are associated with stunting. Stunted children achieve 0.2 years to 1.2 years less in school education. 8 to 28 percent of all child mortality is associated with under nutrition. Child mortality associated with under nutrition has reduced national workforces by 1 percent.  40 to 67 % of working-age populations suffered from stunting as children. The United Nations International Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has warned that 1.4 million children are at imminent risk of death in just four countries: Nigeria, South Sudan, Somalia and Yemen. All four are in the midst of civil wars or insurgencies. The current scenario in Asia is also in dire need of reform - 70% of all malnourished children in the world live in Asia. Around 512 million adults and children in Asia consume too few calories, which accounts for over 12% of the total population of Asia. India and Bangladesh have the highest rates (16%) of malnutrition and the most numbers of the hungry in Asia. In Asia, 17% of females and 13% of males are underweight on average (BMI<18.5). These consequences of hunger must be addressed in a cost effective way. This is important for the Seed Industry and for the Seed Market.

WEMA: As per Seed Business Review More than 300 million Africans depend on Maize as their main food source – and it is severely affected by frequent drought. Aside from drought, Insects - particularly stem borers - present a challenge to farmers in Sub–Saharan Africa. These insects feed on the surviving maize and reduce the plant’s ability to use limited water and nutrients. Drought tolerance has been recognized as one of the most important targets of crop improvement programs, and biotechnology has been identified as a powerful tool to achieve significant drought tolerance. The African Agricultural Technology Foundation (AATF)  is coordinating a public-private partnership called Water Efficient Maize for Africa (WEMA) to develop drought-tolerant and insect-protected maize using conventional breeding, marker-assisted breeding, and biotechnology, with a goal to make these varieties available royalty-free to smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa through African seed companies. The crop is a major innovation towards producing a stable source of food in African countries which usually have weather unfavorable to grow crops. Scientists have observed unexpected benefits in Mozambique’s WEMA field trials upon testing- Though the maize varieties were genetically engineered to withstand drought and the vicious stem borer pest, they’re also showing promising resistance to the destructive fall armyworm pest,which is another major cause for damage to crops in Africa. In Mozambique alone, between 282,000 and 712,000 tonnes of maize were lost to the fall armyworm last year, costing the country’s economy between USD 83.8 and USD 208.7 million. The damage from stem borers is a major causal factor towards adopting WEMA as the insect damage reduces the yield by up to 40%. The WEMA varieties have been developed through collaboration between the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) and government research institutions in six African nations using gene technology donated by Monsanto. Since the resulting seeds market is royalty-free, local seed companies can make them available to smallholder farmers at affordable prices. Early results from Mozambique indicate the genetically modified WEMA seeds can offer significant protection against insect pests — without the use of pesticides. This has positive implications for the other nations that are developing WEMA varieties, including Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, South Africa and Ethiopia.

Scope: The introduction of WEMA presents a major opportunity to curb with hunger crisis existing in African countries and also presents an opportunity for large scale growth of crops that are more tolerant and capable of growing in a harsher climate. Countries like Mexico where inadequate weather for Maize production causes a lack in quantity produced forcing the country to import Maize can utilize these seeds to bolster the production of Maize domestically reducing reliance on other countries and improving the welfare for the domestic population. Further application once WEMA is made mainstream could lead to it being implemented in other developing markets in European and majorly in Asia Pacific regions.
