Genetically Modified Crops Market Growth Accelerated by Increased Adoption of Drought and Pest Resistant Crops
Genetically Modified Crops Market |
The global Genetically Modified Crops Market has witnessed substantial growth over the past few years owing to the growing need for high yield and nutrition enriched crops to meet the increasing global food demand. Genetically modified crops are designed to resist pests, diseases, herbicides, or stress conditions such as lack of water or cold temperatures which makes them highly suitable for cultivation.
The global
Genetically Modified Crops Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 126.99 Bn in
2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11% over the forecast period 2024 to
2031, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
Increased adoption of drought and pest resistant genetically modified crops is
one of the key trends driving the growth of the genetically modified crops
market. These genetically modified seeds have properties such as the ability to
grow in low rainfall areas, resistance to leaching, and tolerance to diseases
and pests among others. Farmers are increasingly opting for such GM seeds as
they provide higher yields even in unfavorable weather conditions and require
minimal application of pesticides which has further boosted their demand across
major crop producing regions globally. This growing preference for genetically
modified drought and pest resistant crop variants among farmers is expected to
accelerate the market growth over the coming years.
Segment
Analysis
The global genetically modified crops market is segmented on the basis of crop
type and traits. Based on crop type, the market is segmented into soybean,
maize/corn, cotton, canola, and other crops. Maize/corn dominates the global
market as it is one of the most widely cultivated GMO crops. The high acreage
of maize cultivation coupled with its importance as a staple food makes it the
largest segment.
