GMO testing includes testing of crops and processed food for various traits such as stacked, herbicide tolerance, and insect resistance. The production of genetically modified crops is growing due to increase in nutritional demand.

Need to ensure sufficient nutrition, evolution in farming technology, labeling mandates in several countries, diverse GM processed food production, and high investments in biotech R&D have been driving the market for GMO testing.

One of the leading players, Intertek Group Plc (U.K.), adopted acquisitions as its key strategy; it also focuses on expansions to extend its capabilities in the GMO testing market.

Need to ensure sufficient nutrition, evolution in farming technology, labeling mandates in several countries, diverse GM processed food production, and high investments in biotech R&D have been driving the market for GMO testing.

North America is projected to be the fastest-growing region for GM food safety testing, as it is the largest GM crops producing country, along with the need to comply with the GMO labeling regulations from importing countries.

The market players are responding to these new opportunities by expanding their global presence and product lines. The GMO testing market is segmented on the basis of trait, technology, crop & processed food tested, and region.
