Biological seed treatment is the process of applying microorganisms to seeds to protect them against soil-borne diseases and insects that affect crop productivity. This method is more effective than the conventional chemical treatments, which are harmful to seeds and crops. Several microorganisms are used in this technique to prevent a number of plant diseases and enhance the growth potential of crops. They are applied on seeds with dry or liquid formulations. These coatings ensure that the product remains on the seeds during handling and planting.
Market Dynamics:
Biological seed treatment has gained popularity over the years because of its high efficacy and low cost. The application of these biologicals is often done in combination with other agrochemicals to control specific pests and diseases. The global market for the biological seed treatment is expected to grow at a significant rate in the near future. The growing demand for organic food products and the increasing government policies for reducing exposure to chemicals are some of the major factors driving this market.
