North America Seed Market Overview:
The Seed market is evolving at a substantial rate due to the growing demand for food and feed and rapid fall of the arable land. High yielding cultivars/seeds along with crop protection products and fertilizers are being used to achieve ideal utilization in this sector.
Farmers bank on the seed industry to deliver seeds that bring high yields and help decrease the cost of the production. The global concerns about pollution are driving the increase in the use of biofuels. Biofuels offer several advantages when compared to fossil fuels in terms of decreasing pollution, which is one of the main reasons of governments taking up initiatives to produce biodiesel.
