Agrigenomics is the use of various advanced omics technologies such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics for augmenting agriculture and attaining sustainability in food production. It involves the application of molecular tools and techniques to crop improvement activities. Agrigenomics assists in developing an in-depth understanding of gene function and genome-wide patterns of gene expression. This enables cultivating climatic resistant and high-yielding crop varieties. It also facilitates the production of nutritionally enhanced crops suitable for the changing climate and environmental conditions. Agrigenomics is gaining widespread adoption globally as it helps boost crop productivity and lower production costs through enhanced precision in farming.
The global agrigenomics market is driven by factors such as increasing demand for higher crop yields, growing requirement for sustainable agricultural practices, and supportive government initiatives for agrigenomics research and development. However, high infrastructure and investment costs associated with omics technologies hamper the market growth. Growing incidences of droughts and changing climatic conditions have opened up opportunities for agrigenomics companies to develop customized seeds and plant varieties suitable for diverse geographies. Market players are investing in genome sequencing and molecular marker technologies to tap the opportunities. The global agrigenomics market is driven by the need to develop sustainable crop varieties and address the challenges of limited arable land, adverse effects of climate change, and growing global food demand. The growing adoption of genetically modified crops and the development of accurate molecular breeding tools is also fueling the market growth. However, stringent regulations for genetically modified crop cultivation and the high costs associated with genomics research poses challenge to the market. The development of affordable whole genome sequencing techniques provides growth opportunities for stakeholders. Moreover, the use of gene editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 offers precision solutions for crop trait improvement at low costs.
