Seed Treatment Market Analysis and Trends 2025 By Key Players Syngenta AG, Bayer AG, Nufarm Limited

The application of pesticides on seeds for controlling disease caused by organisms and insects is known as seed treatment. Seed treatment plays an important role in improving the health of the crops. The low-cost crop protection and less environmental impact of seed treatment are the factors expected to drive growth of the market. The crop seeds are often exposed to adverse environmental conditions during seedling development. This treatment reduces the environmental impact of the manufacturing process by reducing the spray applications of crop protection products and decreasing exposure to non-target species including pollinators and humans. According to American Seed Trade Association (ASTA), the exposure of potential soil surface to pesticides is reduced by around 90% or more as compared to other application methods such as broadcast sprays or in-furrow applications.
