The agriculture industry is of great importance, and there is a pressing need for increasing productivity and efficiency in agricultural fields for catering to the need of the swiftly growing population across the globe. Governments across the globe are focusing on creating awareness among farmers, by launching several initiatives, about advanced technologies, including crop protection materials. These materials aids in keeping insects and pests away, in turn, enhancing crop yield. In addition to this, heavy investments are being made in research & development for the introduction of innovative solutions which can help increase productivity of fields.

It is due to all these factors that the demand for seed treatment in the agriculture industry is growing rapidly. Seed treatment refers to the application of products, biological organisms, and chemical ingredients to seed for controlling, supressing, or repelling plant insects, pathogens, and other pests. The utilization of seed treatment technologies is highly effective and provides the essential protection of seeds for a healthy and strong start. Seed treatments is selected after the assessment of the farm land, which ensures that the plant is protected from diseases and insects that are present in the soil during the early stages of development.

Attributed to all these advantages, the global seed treatment market is expected to progress at a considerable pace in the coming years. Crops including pulses, wheat, mustard, and groundnut crops are susceptible to various soil and seed borne diseases throughout the different stages of growth. These diseases have a negative effect of germinations and result in reduction in the yield, further causing loss to farmers. Because of this, farmers are increasingly making use of seed treatment technologies in order to protect their crop. Different application methods of seed treatment are pelleting, dressing, and coating. In the coming years, the demand for dressing application method is projected to increase significantly.

This is ascribed to the low cost of this method. Under this process, seeds are either wet-treated with liquid or slurry formulation or dressed with a dry formulation in an earthen pot. Seeds are then spread on a polyethylene sheet and chemical is sprinkled on them. Geographically, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is predicted to emerge as a major seed treatment market in the near future. This is primarily owing to the fact that the region has several agriculture-based economies, such as China, India, and various other Southeast Asian Countries. In addition to this, the population in India and China is growing rapidly, because of which, the requirement for increasing productivity on agricultural fields is pressing.

In conclusion, the demand for seed treatment technologies is rising all across the globe due to the surging population and growing need for increasing efficiency in the agricultural sector.
