Genetic Engineering in Agriculture Market Revenue and Trends 2025 to 2033

The global genetic engineering in agriculture market revenue reached USD 1.24 billion in 2025 and is predicted to attain around USD 2.39 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 8.55%. This market is rising due to increasing demand for high-yield, pest-resistant, and climate-resilient crops coupled with advancements in biotechnology and supportive government policies.

Key Drivers for Genetic Engineering in Agriculture Market

The genetic engineering in agriculture market is being driven by a number of important factors changing agriculture and global food security today. The most evident factor is the demand for higher yields and pest-resistance. Farmers are looking for answers to safely expand their efficiency and use fewer inputs and chemicals. Tightening climate change as well as loss of arable land is also encouraging adoption as genetically engineered seeds can be engineered to wilt less in drought, and resist salinity and stress.

Further supporting this innovation is the rising interest in sustainable agriculture, less reliance on pesticides, and greater investment by venture capitalists in agri-genomic initiatives. Lastly, in addition to supportive government policies such as increased government funding to production practice change, the reduced costs associated with genetic engineering in agriculture such as advances in biotechnology and Agri-genomics remain as a bonus to a sector currently altering the way we cultivate crops.

Segment Insights

• By technology, this market is led by the transgenic (conventional GM) segment creating efficiencies in agriculture and crop resilience.
• By trait, the genetic engineering in agriculture market is led by the herbicide tolerance & stacked traits segment creating efficiencies in crop protection and production.
• By crop type, this market is dominated by the row crops segment creating increased productivity and sustainable farm solutions.
• By application, this market is dominated by the seed & trait licensing segment creating a significant rise in innovation and increasing commercial adoption of crops due to innovation.
• By end-user, the genetic engineering in agriculture market is dominated by seed companies and Agri-biotech, creating innovation in crop solutions globally.

Regional Insights

North America held the largest share of the market due to established biotechnology infrastructure, high R&D expenditure, and favourable governmental policies. The North America region will maintain its leadership position in innovative agricultural solutions with its high use of genetically modified crops, high concentration of Agri-biotech companies, and consumer acceptance and awareness of biotechnology.

The Asia-Pacific market for genetic engineering in agriculture is observed to be the fastest-growing due to the rising demand for food, increasing arable land, and greater government engagement. With the continued acquisition of high-yield and pest-resistant crops, a significant increase in Agri-biotechnology investments, this region will emerge as an important hub for sustainability and agricultural solutions that promote resources efficiency.
