GMO stands for genetically modified organisms, and it encompasses a lot of products in industries, which include medicinal, scientific, and agricultural applications. GMO refers to seeds in the field of agriculture and food consumption. Genetically modified seeds have been used by farmers around the world for about 20 years. GM seeds have distinct traits that set them apart from other seeds. They include qualities like herbicide resistance, insect resistance, and efficient water usage.

The North American GMO seed market is driven by the rise in the adoption of biofuels and the increased demand for animal feeds. Furthermore, the increasing threat from global food companies to non-GM food products and the premium pricing of non-GM foods also act as substantial factors in market growth. Supportive governmental policies encouraging the use of GMO seeds also act as a driver for market growth. However, issues of Intellectual Property Rights and delays in certifying GMO seeds by administrative arms of governments act as restraints on market growth.
