Asia Pacific is the third largest forage seed market after North America and Europe. There is a tremendous increase in demand for dairy and meat products in the Asian region due to the increase in population, which has supported the rise in demand for forage seed in the market. The forage seed production in Asia Pacific is insufficient and is unable to make up for the domestic demand. Hence, forage seeds are imported from other regions.
Plants obtained from forage seeds are chicory, Ryegrass, Alfalfa, Timothy, Clover, Bent grass, bird's trefoil, etc. The seeds are first obtained from plants and then purified by seed growers or conditioners. There is a high demand for livestock feed production, which is fulfilled by forage seeds. Manufacturers plant pastures and hayfields by using legumes and grass seeds (types of forage seeds).
Emerging per capita income, increase in population, increase in breed cattle demand for feed, shrinkage of land for grazing animals, government subsidies, and increased demand for animal and dairy products are the key drivers for the market in the Asia Pacific region. The low potential of the currently available forage seeds is a major drawback.
