The seed coating materials market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.39%, from US$1.762 billion in 2022 to US$2.903 billion in 2029 during the forecast period.
Polymer coatings like PEG, PVA, and PVP protect seeds. They make a covering, helping seed performance. Bio options like chitosan and starch are better for the environment. They're sustainable. Seed coats often have nutrients like nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. These help plants grow early. Micronutrients like zinc and iron make seedlings grow well. They increase crop yield as well. Bioactive compounds can also defend plants from diseases and environmental issues.
Seed coating materials promote sustainable agriculture through reduced crop losses and improved quality. Seed coats are important in optimizing seed germination, establishment, durability, and increasing agricultural yield. Their specialized compositions address individual crop requirements, providing a flexible tool for current farming operations. As a result, seed coatings are a key improvement in agricultural technology, promoting sustainable and efficient crop production globally.
Seed dressing, film coating, and pelleting are the main types of seed coatings available in the market. Technological advancements, enhanced yield, and nutritional crop demand positively contribute to the seed coating materials market growth.
Seed Coating Material Market Drivers:
- Efficient germination and agricultural product growth are anticipated to positively impact the seed coating materials market.
Simple seeds are not capable of growing well and have low germination rates. However, coated seeds sprout quickly and vigorously, boosting crop yields significantly. This is expected to drive the seed coating materials market strongly. Furthermore, farmers are learning that coated seeds enhance plant emergence uniformity and productivity, increasing investment returns. Demand for coating materials will rise, notably for advanced coatings. These solve unique farming challenges precisely, fueling global market expansion.
- Increasing world population and food demand.
On November 15, 2022, the world's population exceeded 8 billion, marking a significant milestone in human growth. This exceptional development is attributed to progressive increases in human longevity due to advances in public health, diet, personal cleanliness, and medicine. It is also the outcome of high and persistent fertility rates in some nations.
The UN estimates that the global population will reach 9.15 billion by 2050. More people fuel the need for more food production, and the world needs sustainable, modern farming technology for this. According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, cereal consumption is expected to reach over 3 billion tonnes by 2050. Seed coating will assist in meeting rising demand by decreasing crop loss and enhancing agricultural productivity. Thus, the growing population will positively impact the seed coating materials market.
- Opportunities in the seed coating materials market.
The leading market participants in seed coating material are developing product innovations and strategies to combat climate change in agriculture. Climate change is having a devastating impact on the environment. According to IPCC assessments, climate change is influencing rainfall patterns, with global warming expected to reach 1.5ºC in the next decades.
Seed coating has developed hydro-absorbers to overcome water problems in drought-affected areas. They help wet the seed roots, thereby increasing the survival rate. According to a research article published in the National Library of Medicine, the hydro absorber-coated seed shows 75% higher seedling growth than uncoated seed. Furthermore, constant innovation and climate change pave the way for new entrants in the seed coating materials market.
Seed Coating Material Market Restraints:
The worldwide seed coating materials market has several challenges that impede its growth trajectory. Regulatory complications, such as demanding licensing processes and differing rules across countries, frequently prevent seed coating material firms from entering and expanding into new markets. The high R&D expenses associated with generating revolutionary coating formulas may limit the market participation of smaller businesses.
Furthermore, concerns about environmental sustainability and using synthetic chemicals in seed coatings may prompt increasing scrutiny and regulatory obstacles, particularly regarding biodegradability and ecological effects. Addressing these problems through regulatory harmonization, cost-effective R&D solutions, education programs, and long-term product development strategies will be critical for overcoming constraints and driving growth in the worldwide seed coating materials market.
Seed Coating Material Market Geographical Outlook
- North America is projected to dominate the seed coating materials market
Due to various factors, the North American seed coating materials market is expected to experience considerable expansion. Technological advances in seed coating formulations have transformed the market, providing novel options to improve seed quality and production. Farmers increasingly demand high-quality coated seeds, recognizing the benefits of better germination rates, disease resistance, and overall crop output.
Technological advancements and the early adoption of farming technologies are significant market drivers for regional seed coating materials. Moreover, increasing environmental concerns and rapid urbanization drive the need for seed coating materials, thereby increasing the market size.
Collaboration among stakeholders, including manufacturers, seed firms, and research institutes, promotes innovation and drives market growth. Furthermore, the growing problems posed by climate change are driving the need for seeds with increased resilience, boosting the use of seed-coating materials in the North American agriculture industry.
For instance, Canada is the top destination for high-value agricultural exports from the United States, accounting for 24% of the market in 2022 and worth US$19.7 billion. Consumer-oriented agricultural goods are foods often sold in supermarkets and utilized in restaurants.
Seed Coating Material Market Players and Products
- Polyselect®, Germain Seed Technology’s seed coating polymer, is available in 100, 300, and 500 series with different usage and properties. This range is a premix of polymer binder, opacifier, and dispersed pigment color. This provides the flexibility of dilution with increased shelf life and reduced water usage thus reducing storage and transportation costs.
- Sepiret Seed Coatings provide dependable performance and contribute to sustainable agriculture practices by offering microplastic-free coating options that assure peace of mind from seed processing to planting. They increase adhesion and dust management, allowing active ingredients (AIs) to be retained while also creating a smooth seed surface for better seed flow and drop accuracy.
Seed Coating Material Market Key Developments
- In October 2023, Corteva, Inc. launched Straxan™ fungicide seed treatment in Canada, providing farmers with a ready-to-use and easy-to-apply formulation that combats common grain diseases.
- In May 2022, Bayer Vietnam released Routine Start 280FS (Routine Start). This novel seed treatment solution protects early-season rice seeds against rice blast fungus, increasing crop output and resource efficiency for rice producers.
- In February 2022, Xampla partnered with Croda International to develop a microplastic-free and biodegradable seed coating. The project was backed by the UK government and the National Institute of Agricultural Botany, and it received an estimated £640,000 in funding. It enables the development of completely natural coatings with no residue as the seeds grow.
