Seed treatments give value to the grower. For example, they helped to contribute nearly $80 billion to US maize growers in 2011, according to the US CropLife Foundation. There are advantages to each layer of the supply chain, as well as environmental benefits.
The market is driven by numerous factors, including: farming methods, such as no-till; commodity prices; government interventions; increasing awareness; higher-value seed; and improved seed treatments and seed treatment technology.
Restraints include: increase in market share of cheaper off-patent products; and environmental concerns over the neonicotinoids.
