Biological seed treatment includes microorganisms used for protecting seeds against seed- and soil borne diseases, hence, this is more effective alternative to the chemical treatments. The high-value industrial crops are those which are high yielding and provide higher net per hectare of product produced. These include crops such as sugarcane, cotton, hybrid maize (corn), soybean, potatoes, spices, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs.

For these high yielding crops, the companies are investing more in R&D activities to design innovative biological products that can align with the requirements of different geographies and soil conditions. These companies include Bayer AG (Germany), Syngenta AG (Switzerland), and other commercial, private companies globally. The Bayer Crop Science R&D team is continuously focusing on converting the industry leading value-driven investment into innovative products that benefit growers, consumers, and the planet.
