Frost & Sullivan highlights growing demand for biological treatments, precision agriculture and regenerative farming approaches as the agricultural inputs market expands
LONDON, June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost & Sullivan's latest analysis, Transforming Agricultural Productivity Through Integrated Seed, Fertiliser and Soil Health Strategies, finds that the global seed and fertiliser treatments market is projected to grow from $7.98 billion in 2025 to $11.52 billion by 2032, driven by increasing pressure on farmers to improve productivity whilst addressing climate variability, soil degradation and resource constraints. The study highlights how integrated approaches combining advanced seed treatments, fertiliser innovations and soil health solutions are becoming essential to building resilient, efficient and sustainable farming systems.
Global agriculture is facing mounting challenges, including declining soil fertility, increasing pest pressure, unpredictable weather patterns and the need to produce more food with fewer resources. Historically, growers have relied on input intensification to sustain yields, but this approach is becoming less effective due to environmental, economic and agronomic constraints. As a result, the industry is shifting towards strategies that strengthen soil resilience, optimise nutrient-use efficiency and improve crop vigour from the earliest stages of plant development. This transition is elevating the role of advanced seed coatings, biological treatments, controlled-release fertilisers, nutrient stabilisation technologies and regenerative soil management practices.
