The global agricultural testing market is expected to undergo a substantial rate of growth during the forecast period owing to the rise in the number of outbreaks of foodborne diseases as a result of contamination. Moreover, the strict safety and quality regulations laid on agricultural end-products by the government as well as regulatory bodies are also supporting the demand for agricultural testing. The increasing amount of waste disposed of in rivers that reach agricultural lands is further expected to propel the growth of the market in the coming years.
Important Factors of the Global Agriculturals Testing Market
Agricultural testing involves the testing of soil, water, seeds, compost, manure, biosolids, and plant tissue samples to ensure the safety of the samples against hazardous contaminants such as pathogens, toxins, and pesticides. As contaminated water seeps into the soil, it becomes important to test the soil and irrigation water to determine if it is suitable for agricultural use. Rapid industrialization and urbanization have led to an explicit amount of waste which is degrading the fertility of the land. Hence, agricultural testing is gaining prominence in both developed as well as developing nations.
The global agricultural testing market can be segmented based on a sample, technology, application, and region. Based on technology, the market is segmented into conventional and rapid technologies. Among them, the rapid technology segment is expected to dominate the global agriculturals testing market during the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for fast and accurate testing procedures that have a broad spectrum for bacterial testing.
Based on application, the global agriculture testing market is segmented into safety testing and quality assurance. The quality assurance segment held the largest market share in 2019 and the segment is projected to lead the market in the forecast period as it resolves soil infertility, and water quality for irrigational facilities and helps in identifying the essential nutrients that increase the overall yield of crops and other agricultural produce.
