What is the Scope of Agricultural Biologicals?

Agricultural Biological are increasingly being used as a replacement of synthetic or chemical plant protection products like chemical pesticides, fungicides or insecticides. Agricultural biological products like biopesticides, biostimulants, and biofertilizers serve as a natural product which lead to soil health development, plant’s disease control, enhancement of nutrient uptake, plant growth enhancement, and various others. The demand for agricultural biological products is growing over other synthetic products owing to its minimal costs, low environmental impacts, and a low risk of product resistance towards the pests.


Agricultural Biological Market

Growing awareness and demand for healthier crop food products in the developed counties such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea have promoted the manufacturers to produce agricultural biological products. Also, developing nations in the Asia Pacific exhibit huge potential and growth prospects for the agricultural biological products due to change in lifestyle, rise in middle-class population, growth in disposable income and an increase in awareness about healthier products.

The Global Agricultural Biological Market has been segmented into foliar sprays, soil treatment, and seed treatment. The seed treatment segment led to the global agricultural biological market. Seeds are treated with the help of insecticides, fungicides, etc. to protect them from seed-borne pathogenic organisms. Seeds are also subjected to exposure of solar energy or immersion in conditioned water. It provides various advantages such as improved germination, control of insects present in the soil, prevention of plant diseases, early growth and establishment, and protection from seedling blights and seed rot. Seeds can be treated with various procedure types such as seed dressing, seed pelleting, and seed coating.
