Biological Seed Treatment: Enhancing The Growing Power Of Plants
Seed treatment refers to the
application of chemicals or biological organism to the seed for plantation
purposes. Biological seed treatment enables plants, seeds, and seedlings to
resist damage by pathogenic fungi. Also, natural seed treatment promotes nitrogen
fixation, stimulate cell division, root development, and increase stress
tolerance in plants.

Chemical based seed treatments
have caused severe environmental concerns owing to their toxicity. Biological
seed treatments, on the other hand, are environment-friendly and promote more
consistent plant stand and improved yield.
Types of biological seed treatment
Seed dressing
Seed coating
Seed pelleting
The biological seed treatment
market is anticipated to witness high growth in the forecast period owing to
factors such as developments in the field of environment-friendly products
coupled with demands for high-value industrial crops. Moreover, government
policies encouraging microbial products and high-quality agricultural produce
further fuel the growth of the biological seed treatment market.
However, high costs associated
with biological seed treatments and limited product availability and adoption
may hamper the growth of the global biological seed treatment market.
Nonetheless, the introduction of innovative combination products and bio
encapsulation technologies offers significant opportunities for the growth of
biological seed treatment market and the key players involved during the
forecast period.
