Drivers and Restraints:
Environmental concerns associated with chemical seed treatment.
The demand for biological seed treatment has significantly increased because of high awareness of their potential and the growing attention to the environmental and health risks associated with conventional chemicals. Chemical seed treatments are detrimental to the environment and pose a serious risk to pollinators. The neonicotinoid class of insecticides is considered highly toxic to honeybees. Microorganisms employed as active substances in pest management are recognized as generally safe for the environment and non-target species, in comparison with synthetic chemicals.
Can Government Regulations Boost This Market
The regulatory environment for active biological ingredients differs between countries and regions. Generally, authorities around the world recognize that biological seed treatment products are beneficial but different from chemical plant protection products. Moreover, this recognition has not necessarily led to consistent approaches in regulatory requirements or review processes. In some countries, biologicals are registered under specific legislation, or they may be registered in a similar manner as chemical plant protection products. At times, there are reduced data requirements, and other times there may be no well-defined process at all for their registration.

Segments:
The Microbial segment is projected to be the largest and fastest growing type of biological seed treatment market during the review period, in terms of value.
The biological seed treatment is categorized into two types namely microbial and botanicals. The microbial segment accounted for the largest share in the global biological seed treatment market due to the higher demand for biofungicides and bioinsecticides. These microbial seed treatments is carried out by beneficial microorganisms which can reduce the fertilizer and pesticide applications and increase the yields, at an economical price.
By crop, the corn segment accounted for the largest market share in the biological seed treatment market, in terms of value.
Among various crop types, the corn segment accounted for the largest market share due to the risen production of corn globally and this crop is the most popular cereal type due to its wide range of applications as feed, food, and industrial feedstock. Also, the corn crop is vulnerable to many infections by plant pathogens throughout the growing season and thus has much wider requirement for biological seed treatment methods.
