种子着色剂市场 - 预测 2023-2028Seed Colorant Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
种子着色剂是涂在种子表皮上的染料或颜料,通过用途或种子处理来区分它们。许多市售农作物、蔬菜、草和花卉种子都带有彩色涂层,以区分不同的品牌、用途、遗传特征和技术进步。美国环保署等法规机构也强制要求在种子包衣中使用某些颜色。常见的种子披衣颜色的例子包括红色、绿色和蓝色颜料。
当处理大量种子时,使用种子着色剂来减少灰尘管理并改善种子流动。此外,它还可用作种子处理的高效粘性运输剂,以增加种子与土壤的接触、幼苗发芽和幼苗成活。当从飞机上散布草种子时,种子着色剂还可以提高种子堆积密度,从而减少风漂并提高覆盖作物的准确性。因此,随着种子技术的进步,对种子处理的需求不断增加,促进了全球市场的扩大。人口激增增加了对粮食作物和谷物的需求,对全球市场的运作做出了积极贡献。此外,非转基因种子和杂交种子的使用正在增加,为该行业的主要市场相关人员提供了重大机会。
儘管种子着色剂市场正在经历高增长,但高价格、缺乏知识以及法规机构对特定和化学色素的使用的严格色素阻碍了预测期内全球市场的增长。
人口的显着增长大大增加了对高产、有营养的粮食作物和谷物的需求,以养活社会。因此,对经过化学处理的种子来保护作物免受害虫侵袭的需求不断增长,因为大量作物因害虫侵袭而损失。粮农组织估计,每年世界农作物收成的 20-40% 因害虫而损失。植物病害每年给全球经济造成超过 2200 亿美元的损失,而入侵昆虫则给全球经济造成约 700 亿美元的损失。种子着色剂可以保护种子免受灰尘和其他微生物的侵害,通常应用于经过杀虫剂处理的种子。
有利的政府机构和政策提高了农民对种子处理和技术的认识。例如,为确保所有主要农作物得到100% 种子处理,印度政府在农业技术管理局、中央害虫综合防治中心、Krishi Vigyan Kendra 等农化行业组织和非政府组织的领导下,在全国范围内启动了各种活动、计划和政策。
主要市场相关人员还推出了各种种子染料和颜料,以满足对种子着色剂不断增长的需求。例如,全球化工巨头巴斯夫于2021年6月推出了下一代种子处理包衣聚合物Flo Rite Pro 2805。它的创建是为了增加活性化学物质的附着和保留。
预计北美地区将占据种子着色剂的重要市场份额。由于种子处理和包衣技术的快速进步,该地区将在整个预测期内经历快速扩张。由于对高产、营养丰富的粮食作物和谷物的需求不断增长,该地区的市场也在扩大。此外,关于正确使用种皮颜色的严格和强制性规定也推动了对种子着色剂的需求并刺激了区域市场的扩张。害虫控制和法规机构要求在经过处理的种子上使用种子着色剂以及对高价值种子的需求不断增加是推动加拿大种子着色剂市场扩张的关键要素。此外,Incotec、科莱恩、Keystone Aniline Corporation 和巴斯夫等主要市场参与者的渗透也推动了该地区种子着色剂的增长。
Seed colorants are dyes and pigments coated on the seed's skin to differentiate them based on application and seed treatment. To distinguish distinct brands, uses, genetic features, and technological advancements, many marketed row crop, vegetable, grass, and flower seeds are sold with colored coatings. Regulatory bodies like EPA have also made it mandatory to use certain colors to coat the seeds. A few examples of common seed coat colors include red, green, and blue pigments.
When large amounts of seeds are handled, seed colorants are used to decrease dust management and improve seed flowability. Additionally, they can be used to increase seed-to-soil contact, seedling emergence, and seedling survival by acting as efficient, highly sticky transporters for seed treatments. Seed colorants also improve the bulk density of the seeds for fly-over applications of grass seeds from aircraft, resulting in less wind drift and more precision for cover cropping. Therefore growing demand for seed treatment, along with progress in seed technology, is contributing to the global market expansion. The population boom has resulted in burgeoning demand for food crops and grains, positively contributing to global market operations. In addition, the rising use of non-GMO and hybrid seeds has provided massive opportunities for key market players in this industry.
Even though the seed colorant market is witnessing high growth; however, high prices, lack of knowledge, and stringent rules by regulatory bodies regarding the use of specific and chemicalized colors are hampering the growth of the global market during the projection period.
Significant population growth has led to a huge demand for high-yielding, nutritious food crops and grains to feed society. This has led to a growing demand for chemically treated seeds to protect them from any pest attacks as huge amounts of crops are lost due to pest attacks. FAO estimates that between 20 and 40 percent of the world's crop yield is lost each year to pests. Plant diseases cost the world economy over US$220 billion annually, and invasive insects cost the economy about US$70 billion. Seed colorants protect the seed from dust and other microbes and are usually applied to insecticide-treated seeds.
Favorable government schemes and policies have raised awareness among farmers regarding seed treatment and technologies. For instance, to ensure that all major crops receive 100 percent seed treatment, the Indian government launched a nationwide campaign, schemes, and policies under organizations from the pesticide industry, including the Agricultural Technology Management Agency, Central Integrated Pest Management Centres, Krishi Vigyan Kendra, and NGOs.
Key market players have also launched various seed dyes and pigments to meet the growing demand for seed colorants. For instance, the next generation of coating polymers for seed treatments, Flo Rite Pro 2805, was introduced by the global chemical powerhouse BASF in June 2021. It was created to increase the adherence and retention of active chemicals.
North American region is anticipated to hold a substantial market share in seed colorant. This region will experience rapid expansion throughout the projection period due to the rapid progress and seed treatment and coating technologies. This region's market is also expanding due to the growing demand for high-yielding and nutritious food crops and grains. Moreover, stringent and mandatory rules regarding the correct use of color on seed coats are also propelling the demand for seed colorants, fueling regional market expansion. The mandated use of seed colorants on treated seeds by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency and the increased demand for high-value seeds are the main drivers of the Canadian seed colorant market's expansion. In addition, the prevalence of key market players such as Incotec, Clariant, Keystone Aniline Corporation, BASF, and others also spur the growth of seed colorants in this region.
