The biological seed treatment market, valued at US$2.27 billion in 2025, is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.58% to reach US$3.28 billion in 2030.
Biological seed treatments use renewable resources and include naturally occurring active compounds that protect against pathogens that are transferred by the soil, reduce abiotic stress, and promote plant growth. Over the projected timeframe, the market is anticipated to rise due to the surge in demand for crops grown without chemicals. This demand is further fueled by a change in consumer preferences toward enhancing individual health and consuming nutritious food. The market for biological seed treatment is steadily growing, and new technology is required to allow yield-protecting, environment-friendly solutions that maximize farmers' returns on investment.
