Global Seed Testing Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The global seed testing market size is expected to reach USD 858.97 million in 2024 and reach USD 1,150.03 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.01% from 2024 to 2029.

Seed testing determines the physical/biological parameters of the seed, including purity, moisture, germination, and ODV, allowing growers to provide high-quality seeds. These speed tests are done to determine what seed storage techniques are working. Most seed companies use in-house seed testing facilities, while local manufacturing companies partner with seed testing agencies to perform the necessary tests. New seed developments and seed manufacturer innovations, and strict government regulations to maintain quality standards during seed development are the main parameters of the global seed testing market. 

Market Drivers and Restraints

Increasing government standards and regulations to provide the necessary certifications prior to seed release is the main driving force behind the global seed testing market. The respective government regulations should focus on the act of the producer before it is sold to the farmers. The high investment nature of testing equipment has led companies to partner with seed testing providers to validate seed parameters. Few tests are carried out on-site, and others are carried out at the supplier's facilities. Huge market competition among seed manufacturers to provide high-quality and effective seed contributes to the growth of the seed testing market globally during the forecast period. However, the high cost of these services and the growing investment by seed producers in in-house testing facilities are major factors hampering the growth of seed testing production and sales globally during the forecast period.

Impact of covid-19 on Seed Testing Market

The coronavirus is an unprecedented global public health emergency that has affected almost every industry. In 2020, lockdown restrictions and a ban on flights disrupted the growth rate of the seed testing market. Growing prevalence to increase the production rate in agriculture, the market shares started to increase at the end of 2020.
