Research and Markets: Canada Biological Seed Treatment Market - Growth, Trends And Forecasts (2014-2020)

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/n7gbmx/canada_biological) has announced the addition of the "Canada Biological Seed Treatment Market - Growth, Trends And Forecasts (2014-2020)" report to their offering.

The Canadian market for biological seed treatment is forecast to post a CAGR of 9% in reaching a projected US$8.2 million by 2020 from an estimated US$4.9 million in 2014.

The seed industry in Canada engages in producing an extensive range of quality seeds for sowing that include major cereals and oil seeds, special crops, pulses, forages and turf grasses, ornamental and garden seeds. This helps in sustaining the region's dynamic agricultural industry, which also caters to several overseas agricultural sectors.

Statistics from the Canadian Seed Trade Association reveal that domestic and export sales of seeds accounts for generating about C$750 million on an annual basis, with exports being destined for about 110 countries. The seed industry in Canada is home to over 150 seed companies and 4,500 seed producers of pedigreed seed.

Canadian commercial seed producers and companies produce and market both certified and common seeds to meet the diverse needs of growers. Certified seeds are verified for their genetic identity and purity by an external field inspector and, are used by farmers who want additional assurance on seed quality, variety purity, and performance. Common seeds are mainly found with forage crops. Approximately one-third of forage seed production is sold as common seed, mainly in Canada and the United States.

The market for seed treatment gains in significance due to a number of factors, prominent among which are agronomic trends that comprise development of high quality seeds through the enhanced potential offered by genetically modified organisms (GMOs), changes in climatic conditions, increasing rates of crop rotation, flexibility in sowing approaches and greater pressure from regulatory requirements.
