Market Dynamics:

Driver: Stringent safety and quality regulations for agricultural commodities

Growing complexities in the supply chain, lack of adoption of good agricultural practices (GAP), and absence of proper hygiene & sanitation practices have resulted in increasing instances of contamination of food, feed, and agricultural products at the beginning of the supply chain, which are responsible for large-scale outbreaks of illnesses and poisoning in both humans and livestock. This has caused severe concerns among farmers, livestock producers, end consumers, regulatory authorities, and other industry stakeholders.

Furthermore, in countries such as the US, Canada, Australia, and countries in the European Union, various mechanisms have been formed, and there is a strong emphasis in the framework regarding monitoring policies and their strict enforcement to attain higher transparency in the supply chain and ensure traceability. Such moves have ensured that contaminated food, feed, and agricultural products face border rejections and are quarantined. Moreover, violators are penalized with heavy fines and have their licenses revoked. Therefore, in order to comply with the safety and quality parameters set by various regulatory authorities, agricultural testing is increasingly being adopted as an essential pre-emptive measure.

Restrain: Testing of seeds, soil, water, and compost amongst other samples require proper enforcement measures, coordination between market stakeholders, and supporting infrastructure. However, many developing economies are lacking in these aspects, which act as a restraint for the growth of the agricultural testing industry.

Opportunity: The agricultural commodities market in developing countries is highly fragmented and is dominated by small farmers and growers who may not have necessarily adopted good agricultural practices, leading to a greater risk of contamination.

Water and soil are the fast growing segments in agricultural testing during the forecast period

The global market, based on sample, has been segmented into soil, water, seed, compost, manure, biosolids, and plant tissue. The market for testing for soil is estimated to dominate in 2017, and is also projected to be the second fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The growing contamination of soil, caused by wastewater and industrial effluents, has been propelling the importance of soil testing; this, in turn, is driving the market for agricultural testing.
