Neonicotinoids are the most commonly used insecticides for the seed treatment application.
Global Seed Treatment Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the illness caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan (province of Hubei, China), in the last months of 2019, as "coronavirus disease 2019" or COVID-19. This virus spreads quickly and had a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviors, and healthcare of every country in the world.
Global seed treatment market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Discretionary references such as sunglasses are expected to suffer the most due to their non-essential nature, higher than average unit price, and seasonality, which has diminished consumer demand. The industry has also experienced disruptions across manufacturing, distribution, and consumption, by exposing inefficiencies and acting as a catalyst for the rapid deployment of digitalization. The impact of COVID-19 on the seed treatment market has been felt across the whole value chain, including supply chain, transportation, and labor, creating a domino effect on the market.
