Continuously Increasing Food Production in Fast-developing Economies
Countries such as China, India, the UK, and the USA, are among the leading food producers across the globe. Increasing demand for food and its quality testing to maintain the quality parameters is boosting the global agriculture testing services market. Stringent rules and regulations associated with food quality testing is another factor that is accelerating the growth of the agriculture testing services market.
Rapid Increase in Demand for Fertilisers in Latin American and East & South Asian Regions
The frequent requirement of fertilizers in the agriculture industry, especially in regions such as South Asia, East Asia and Latin America to raise yield production is one of the important factors that boosting the global demand for fertilizers.
The regular testing of fertilisers by industry manufacturers and agricultural consultants to inspect the nutrient proportion and other parameters is contributing to the growth of the agriculture testing service market. Moreover, the increasing consumption of nitrogen and phosphate fertilisers in key regions is also expected to fuel the growth of agriculture testing services.
Growing Significance of Soil Testing in Agriculture Industry
Agriculture production mainly depends upon the quality of the soil. Farmers are consistently focusing on improving the quality of the soil to boost the yield production.
The increasing importance for soil quality testing across the globe to maintain the required quality of the soil is anticipated to spur the demand for agriculture testing services. The expansion of arable land with its soil quality testing to boost crop production is another factor that is propelling the growth of the agriculture testing service market.
In the agriculture testing service market, tier 1 companies hold a revenue share of ~ 50%. Some of the prominent players in the market are Intertek Group plc, BUREAU VERITAS, Eurofins Scientific, SGS SA, TÜV NORD GROUP, ALS Ltd., AgroLab, Waters Agricultural Laboratories, Inc., Polytest Laboratories., A&L Great Lakes., AGQ Labs USA, Akshar Analytical Laboratory & Research Center, Agri-Labs, Inc., and J. K. ANALYTICAL LABORATORY & RESEARCH CENTRE, Lilaba Analytical Laboratories and Interstellar Testing Center Pvt. Ltd.
Continuous focus on maximizing agricultural yield warrants quality inspection of soil, water, and agricultural products, such as seeds and fertilisers. Agriculture testing services will thus witness an increasing adoption in the coming years. In light of tightening regulatory norms for food quality and safety, and growing preference for transparent labelling, stakeholders in agricultural commodities and food products will continue to opt for agriculture testing services, over the years to come.
The expanse of agri-food industry points to growing need for high-value commodity quality assurance. With testing service providers stretching their capabilities from physical, chemical, and geo-chemical, to contaminant, microbial, and GMO (genetically modified organisms) testing, it is crystal clear that screening, testing, and inspection services will see healthy demand.
