Global Agricultural Testing Market Analysis & Trends - Industry Forecast to 2030
Agricultural Testing: Market Size
From $10.15 billion in 2024, the global Agricultural Testing market is projected to reach $18.59 billion by 2030. Based on our analysis the market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.6% from 2024 - 2030 timeframe. Some of the prominent trends that the market is witnessing include, growing complexities in the supply chain, regulations and legalizations about environmental safety and technological advancements in the testing industry.
Global Agricultural Testing Market: Market Dynamics
Agricultural testing helps in analyzing the appropriate input requirements and resources that are to be supplemented for optimal growth of the plant. Apart from determining the contamination level, testing also helps determine the composition and other characteristics, such as the acidity or pH level of the given sample. A soil test can help in defining the fertility level and the need for trace elements, etc., of a given soil type. The market is anticipated to witness robust growth with rise in demand for agricultural products, which results in increased production, thereby, creating a need for periodical soil testing.
The inclination of consumer preference towards a higher standard of food safety and quality in terms of chemical residues, creates the necessity to maintain the soil properties for quality production, thereby, boosting the market growth during the forecast period.
On the other hand, the improper enforcement of regulatory laws is likely to obstruct the profit boundaries. In addition, rise in the outbreaks of foodborne illnesses and growth in industrialization will further boost for the agricultural testing market.
Impact of COVID-19 on Agricultural Testing
The outbreak of COVID-19 has little impact on the agricultural testing market. Since the supremacy of quality assurance in agricultural testing is attributable to the fact that it aids in resolving major problems related to soil fertility, identifying required nutrients essential for more robust growth and development of crops and other agricultural produce and available water quality for irrigational facilities, which fall under the category of essential commodities, the market is very lightly impacted by the prevailing pandemic across the world.
By Application
Contaminants Segment Dominate the Market in 2024
The contaminants segment made huge revenue in 2024 and growing its prominence during the forecast period. Safety testing of agricultural samples is performed to test samples for contaminants such as heavy metals, toxins, pathogens, pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and other organic contaminants. Increasing significance given to safety laws for agricultural produce and food commodities is expected to boost the market for this segment during the forecast period.
By Geography
North America Region is Leading in the Global Market Place
North America is likely to have a huge demand in the forecast period owing to an existing demand for testing of seeds in the region due to the requirements of certifications for the United States seeds and grains. The Seed Regulatory and Testing Division (SRTD) performs tests on agricultural and vegetable seeds to ensure high efficiency and orderly marketing of seeds and to support in the development of new or expanding markets. These factors collectively are aiding the growth of the market.
