The molecular breeding market has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.45 billion in 2023 to $4.11 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be credited to several factors. These include the emergence and adoption of marker-assisted selection (MAS), the widespread uptake of biotechnological tools, advancements in methods for phenotyping, a transition towards high-throughput screening techniques, and a significant revolution within the seed industry.
The molecular breeding market is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.8 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.4%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to several factors, including an increased demand for disease-resistant varieties, a concentrated effort on climate adaptation, concerns about food security due to a growing population, the prioritization of consumer preferences for quality traits, and supportive regulatory measures for biotechnology.
The surge in cultivating industrial and high-value crops stands as a catalyst driving the molecular breeding market's growth trajectory. Focused on crops with elevated market value due to their utility in diverse industrial applications, this cultivation seeks to harness molecular breeding's capabilities. Molecular breeding empowers plants with superior traits such as disease resistance, heightened yields, and resilience to drought, enhancing crop quality and market value. For example, data from the National Agricultural Statistics Service in January 2022 revealed an uptick in corn and soybean production per acre from 2020 to 2021, underscoring the pivotal role of increased cultivation of high-value crops in propelling the molecular breeding market.
Rising public and private investment in agro-genomics research capacities serves as a propelling force behind the molecular breeding market's expansion. This investment, both government-backed and commercial, aims to elevate agricultural genetics and technology, facilitating improved crop yield and sustainability. Notably, April 2023 data from Genomic Canada highlighted the Canadian government's allocation of $18.1 million through Genome Canada for advanced research initiatives spanning health, environment, and agriculture, utilizing genomics. This significant investment underscores the substantial role of augmented public and private expenditure in fostering innovation and driving growth within the molecular breeding domain.
Technological advancements represent a pivotal trend shaping the molecular breeding market landscape. Key industry players leverage new technologies to fortify their market positions. For instance, the August 2021 launch of Khufu, a computational tool by HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology, revolutionizes plant breeding by swiftly and accurately identifying complex genome variants. Khufu's capabilities aid in pinpointing genetic factors and selecting advantageous traits, revolutionizing breeding practices and elevating existing crop lines with enhanced characteristics.
Major industry players focus on developing innovative service solutions tailored to mutation breeding in plants, enhancing crop traits and breeding efficiencies. These tailored services involve customized approaches to induce specific genetic changes, optimizing plant characteristics through controlled mutation processes. For instance, Lifeasible's June 2023 launch of tailored mutation breeding services caters to enhancing plant gene functions, correlating genotypes with phenotypic traits, and elevating crop trait improvement. The strategic use of mutational breeding stands as a powerful tool in the pursuit of advancing molecular breeding practices and elevating crop quality.
