North America Seed Market Trends
The United States accounted for the largest area under cultivation land in North America due to the availability of vast areas of arable land and favorable government policies
- The North American agricultural land is characterized by its vast area of arable land, diverse climatic zones, and advanced farming techniques. The cultivation of row crops plays a major role in meeting the region's increasing demand for food, feed, and industrial raw materials. The region not only produces for domestic consumption but also contributes significantly to global agricultural trade. As a result, the total acreage of row crops in the region increased by 0.5% between 2017 and 2022, reaching 131.9 million ha. The United States is the largest agricultural producer in North America. It has a total agricultural land area of over 113.9 million ha, with around 112.7 million ha used for row crops in 2022. This is because the country's agricultural policies, including subsidies and support programs, encouraged large-scale farming.
- In 2022, corn accounted for the major share of 34.6% of the North American row crops acreage. This is because the climate in many parts of North America, particularly the Midwest region of the United States, is highly suitable for corn cultivation. Additionally, the stability of the corn market, combined with its consistent demand, makes it an attractive option for many North American farmers. As a result, the acreage for corn is estimated to reach 52.1 million ha in 2030.
- Soybeans accounted for the second largest acreage in North America, with a share of 28.5% of the overall region's row crop cultivation area in 2022. This is because of the high demand for soybeans in the region from processing industries to make soybean oil, tofu, soy milk, and protein isolates, providing a stable market for growers. The favorable government policies and stable demand for row crops in the domestic market are estimated to drive the acreage in the region.

North America Seed Industry Segmentation
Hybrids, Open Pollinated Varieties & Hybrid Derivatives are covered as segments by Breeding Technology. Open Field, Protected Cultivation are covered as segments by Cultivation Mechanism. Row Crops, Vegetables are covered as segments by Crop Type. Canada, Mexico, United States are covered as segments by Country.
- In North America, the hybrid seed segment dominated the markets in terms of volume and value. It accounted for 81.4% of the total seed market value in 2022. This is because hybrid seeds include superior traits such as higher yields, improved disease resistance, and consistent performance, meeting the demands of modern agriculture.
- The market value of the hybrid segment increased by 27.2% between 2017 and 2021 due to advancements in plant breeding techniques, allowing the development of new plant varieties with desired traits by modifying the DNA of the seeds and plant cells. These innovative traits drive the sales of hybrid seeds in the region.
- Open-pollinated varieties require fewer inputs and are less expensive and more affordable for low-income farmers. As a result, in 2022, they were valued at USD 4.23 billion.
- The companies are heavily investing in new plant technologies due to the increasing demand for advanced, improved varieties. For instance, in 2022, Bayer AG opened its new canola seed production site in Cranbrook, B.C. This site manages Bayer's canola pre-foundation, foundation, and experimental plot seed operations for Canada and Chile.
- Wheat is the largest cultivated crop among all the crops, with open-pollinated varieties accounting for 29.3% of the total open-pollinated varieties and value share of hybrid derivatives in 2022. The advantages of open-pollinated varieties and derivatives include being well adapted to the local environment, allowing them to grow stronger, and requiring fewer inputs.
- The advancements in plant breeding techniques and integration of superior traits, such as higher yields and improved disease resistance in hybrid seeds, are estimated to drive the market's growth during the forecast period.

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.
