Ken Research - Hybrid Seed Market in Spain | Page 2

Owing to the increase in domestic consumption and export of crops and food products, the
seed market in the country is likely to witness a gradual growth rate. The agriculture sector
in the country has witnessed growth after the debt crisis in 2010, and is likely to grow
further. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has provided support to the Spanish
farmers in the form of direct payments and has been a key driver of the agriculture sector in
the country. With the gradual growth of the agriculture sector the seed industry is also
expected to grow. The country is the largest producer of GM corn in Europe and owing to
the increase in demand the production is likely to grow further.
The demand for Spanish grape wine and olives is high in the European market, which has
supported the growth of seed market in the country. Owing to the decrease in the overall
land under cultivation in the country, companies are introducing newer varieties of seeds
with higher yield and disease resistance. Trends like this have supported the breeding
programmes of global and local companies. Organic farming is also on the rise in the
country. The number of organic farms has increased considerably in the country in the past
few years. Owing to high demand in the European market for organic food products the
number of organic farms and production of organic food products is expected to grow
substantially in the future which will further augment the growth of the seed market in the
country.
