Agriculture Biologicals Testing Market Report 2024

The agriculture biologicals testing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.48 billion in 2023 to $2.67 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The growth during the historic period was driven by factors such as a growing population, increased adoption of agricultural biologicals, rising awareness of food safety, higher consumption of natural foods, and increased adoption of integrated pest management practices.

The agriculture biologicals testing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.64 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth expected in the forecast period can be attributed to the rising consumption of organic food, increasing demand for eco-friendly alternatives, growing preference for high-quality food products, higher use of synthetic chemicals, and a heightened focus on sustainable soil health management. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period include technological advancements, integration of digital technologies, product innovations, enhanced testing capabilities, and advancements in genetic engineering techniques.

The agriculture biological testing market is poised for growth due to the rising adoption of organic farming. Organic farming, characterized by natural inputs and practices, is gaining favor due to health, environmental, ethical, and economic considerations. This trend reflects broader societal shifts towards sustainable and health-conscious lifestyles. Agricultural biologicals are pivotal in supporting organic farming by offering natural and sustainable solutions for challenges such as pest control, soil fertility, and crop productivity. For example, in May 2023, the UK's Department Of Environment Food & Rural Affairs reported a 0.4% increase in the total area under organic farming in 2022, reaching 509 thousand hectares (including fully converted and under-conversion areas). Thus, the growing preference for organic farming is a key driver of the agriculture biological testing market's expansion.

Major companies in the agriculture biological testing market are concentrating on developing innovative products such as insecticide/bio fungicide premixes. These aim to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and scalability of testing processes, ensuring the safe and effective application of biological products in agriculture. An insecticide/bio fungicide premix combines insecticide and bio fungicide in a single formulation, offering broad-spectrum control of insects and diseases in crops. These products typically contain synthetic and biologically active ingredients, providing multiple modes of action for effective pest management. For example, in November 2023, FMC Corporation, a US-based agricultural sciences company, introduced Xyway LFR, a new insecticide/bio fungicide premix. This product combines flutriafol and bifenthrin to protect against early-season insects and diseases in corn. Xyway LFR features a unique liquid fertilizer-ready (LFR) formulation, facilitating easy mixing with liquid fertilizers. It can be applied in-furrow or as a 2x2 band during planting, offering growers a convenient and effective solution for managing pests and diseases in their corn crops.

In January 2023, Sumitomo Chemical, a Japan-based chemical company, completed the acquisition of FBSciences Holdings, Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition significantly expanded Sumitomo Chemical's biorational business, particularly in biostimulants. FBSciences Holdings, Inc., headquartered in the US, specializes in providing agricultural biological testing products and technologies.

Agricultural biological testing involves evaluating and assessing the effectiveness, safety, and quality of biological products utilized in agriculture. This process employs diverse scientific methodologies to ensure these products adhere to regulatory standards, perform effectively in their intended roles, and do not pose environmental, human, or non-target organism risks.

The primary types of products subjected to agricultural biological testing include biopesticides, biofertilizers, and biostimulants. Biopesticides are natural substances or organisms designed to control pests through methods such as damage, killing, or repelling. They find application across field support, regulatory compliance, and analytical sectors, serving various end-users such as biological product manufacturers, government agencies, plant breeders, and outsourced contract research organizations.
