Hybrids dominate the global maize seed market due to increased adoption by farmers and the growing approvals of transgenic hybrids in major producing countries
- In 2022, hybrids held a significant share of 90.8% of the global maize seed market by value, which increased by 20.8% between 2017 and 2022. This is because the demand for hybrids is increasing in line with the growth in the availability of a variety of traits in maize.
- In 2022, open-pollinated varieties and hybrid derivatives accounted for only 9.2% of the global maize seed market by value. In North America, the United States dominated, accounting for 89.5% of the regional OPV seed market, followed by Mexico with a 6.8% market share.
- Non-transgenic hybrids accounted for 41.9% of the global maize seed market by value in 2022, which increased by 10.6% between 2017 and 2022. This is because of growing consumer demand for food products perceived as natural and free from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Additionally, some countries have strict regulations regarding the use and labeling of GMOs. This has led to increased interest in non-transgenic seeds.
- Transgenic hybrids are estimated to grow, registering a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. The increased yield potential and reduced input costs associated with transgenic crops can lead to an increase in the adoption of these traits. The herbicide-tolerant corn seed segment accounted for the majority of the transgenic corn seed market because weeds reduce crop production and affect growers' profits by 30-40%, owing to crop damage. In South America, the usage of hybrids is 100%. GM maize hybrids were fully approved by the major producing countries in the region and insect- and herbicide-resistant corn seeds are widely available across the region.
- The increasing availability of a variety of traits in hybrids and the growing adoption of hybrids by farmers are estimated to drive the segment during 2023-2030.

Global Maize Seed Market Trends
The Asia-Pacific dominates global maize cultivation due to favorable market prices and conducive geographical conditions
- Maize is the most versatile cereal crop known for its adaptability, diverse types, and wide-ranging use. It is the second most cultivated crop globally, mainly in tropical, sand subtropical, and temperate climates. Its global cultivation encompasses various types, including field corn, sweet corn, popcorn, and baby corn. In 2022, maize production crossed 1.21 billion metric ton, spread across 208.9 million hectares in over 170 countries, with an average yield of 5.87 metric ton. Driven by a growing global population and rising incomes, the demand for maize for human consumption and livestock feed has surged. This surge has prompted farmers to expand their maize cultivation areas, resulting in a 5.5% increase in acreage between 2017 and 2022.
- Asia-Pacific dominates global corn production, accounting for 32.4% of the global maize cultivation area in 2022. This marked a 0.9% increase from 2017 to 2022. Corn has the highest acreage in the region, with the region's expansion of maize cultivation area fueled by favorable market prices and the promise of profitability.
- In 2022, North America accounted for the second-largest maize cultivation acreage, with a dedicated 45.6 million hectares. This represented a 3.3% increase over the historic period. The surge in access to global markets and the demand for corn from international buyers were key drivers behind this expansion. Between 2017 and 2022, Europe witnessed a notable rise in maize cultivation area, from 18.1 million to 21.1 million hectares. This uptick was particularly pronounced in the spring of 2021, buoyed by favorable weather conditions in major maize-producing nations and a price rise.
- Therefore, favorable climatic conditions and market prices are estimated to drive the expansion of maize cultivation globally.

Drought tolerance, disease resistance, and wider adaptability are the major traits being purchased by farmers for meeting the global corn production demand
- The United States, Mexico, and China are key global players in corn production. This crop holds significant value for growers, given its high profitability and the demand for specific traits. Growers seek traits like weed control, enhanced grain quality, early maturity, lodging tolerance, disease resistance (e.g., leaf curl, early rots), and wider adaptability to diverse agro-climatic conditions. Notably, companies like Bayer AG, KWS SAAT SE & KGaA, and Syngenta are offering traits that combat early rots and leaf diseases and boost productivity. These traits are in high demand as no other sprays or alternatives effectively tackle these diseases. Additionally, traits like color, height, and grain count per cob are favored by growers in the Asia-Pacific.
- Growers also prioritize traits like insect resistance and adaptability to safeguard against prevalent pests like moths (e.g., cutworms, armyworms, and borers) and beetles (e.g., grubs and weevils). They also value traits that enable off-season growth and adaptability to diverse soil conditions. Notable product brands like Winfield and Deklab offer corn varieties with these traits. In Europe, there is a rising demand for lodging-resistant varieties, as they can withstand adverse weather conditions and minimize crop losses. Corteva Agriscience's offerings, such as P7179 and P7326, are known for their enhanced standability in strong winds.
- Challenges like water scarcity due to climatic conditions, pests, and diseases impacting corn growth are expected to drive the introduction of new seed varieties and fuel market growth in the coming years.

Maize Seed Industry Segmentation
Hybrids, Open Pollinated Varieties & Hybrid Derivatives are covered as segments by Breeding Technology. Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East, North America, South America are covered as segments by Region.
- In 2022, hybrids held a significant share of 90.8% of the global maize seed market by value, which increased by 20.8% between 2017 and 2022. This is because the demand for hybrids is increasing in line with the growth in the availability of a variety of traits in maize.
- In 2022, open-pollinated varieties and hybrid derivatives accounted for only 9.2% of the global maize seed market by value. In North America, the United States dominated, accounting for 89.5% of the regional OPV seed market, followed by Mexico with a 6.8% market share.
- Non-transgenic hybrids accounted for 41.9% of the global maize seed market by value in 2022, which increased by 10.6% between 2017 and 2022. This is because of growing consumer demand for food products perceived as natural and free from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Additionally, some countries have strict regulations regarding the use and labeling of GMOs. This has led to increased interest in non-transgenic seeds.
- Transgenic hybrids are estimated to grow, registering a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. The increased yield potential and reduced input costs associated with transgenic crops can lead to an increase in the adoption of these traits. The herbicide-tolerant corn seed segment accounted for the majority of the transgenic corn seed market because weeds reduce crop production and affect growers' profits by 30-40%, owing to crop damage. In South America, the usage of hybrids is 100%. GM maize hybrids were fully approved by the major producing countries in the region and insect- and herbicide-resistant corn seeds are widely available across the region.
- The increasing availability of a variety of traits in hybrids and the growing adoption of hybrids by farmers are estimated to drive the segment during 2023-2030.

Market Definition
- Commercial Seed - For the purpose of this study, only commercial seeds have been included as part of the scope. Farm-saved Seeds, which are not commercially labeled are excluded from scope, even though a minor percentage of farm-saved seeds are exchanged commercially among farmers. The scope also excludes vegetatively reproduced crops and plant parts, which may be commercially sold in the market.
- Crop Acreage - While calculating the acreage under different crops, the Gross Cropped Area has been considered. Also known as Area Harvested, according to the Food & Agricultural Organization (FAO), this includes the total area cultivated under a particular crop across seasons.
- Seed Replacement Rate - Seed Replacement Rate is the percentage of area sown out of the total area of crop planted in the season by using certified/quality seeds other than the farm-saved seed.
- Protected Cultivation - The report defines protected cultivation as the process of growing crops in a controlled environment. This includes greenhouses, glasshouses, hydroponics, aeroponics, or any other cultivation system that protects the crop against any abiotic stress. However, cultivation in an open field using plastic mulch is excluded from this definition and is included under open field.
