Global Pathogen or Plant Disease Detection and Monitoring Market Size is valued at USD 2.02 Bn in 2024 and is predicted to reach USD 5.07 Bn by the year 2034 at a 9.8% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Pathogen or plant disease detection involves various methods such as visual inspection, laboratory testing (PCR, ELISA), remote sensing, sensor technologies, DNA sequencing, smartphone apps, IoT, biological control, big data analytics, community surveillance, and genetic resistance. Early detection is essential for timely intervention to mitigate the impact of diseases on crop yields and ensure food security.
The widespread adoption of technologies is facilitated by access to technology, awareness campaigns, and educational programs, empowering farmers with the knowledge and tools necessary to protect their crops. Furthermore, the increasing awareness of sustainable farming practices and the desire to reduce chemical inputs have sparked heightened interest in disease detection technologies that allow for targeted interventions. Moreover, incorporating advanced technologies, including remote sensing, IoT and artificial intelligence, has significantly improved the precision and efficiency of disease detection and monitoring systems.
However, it is important to note that the regulatory framework may need to be fully synchronized with the rapid advancements in detection technologies, introducing uncertainties and potentially slowing down the adoption process.
The pathogen or plant disease detection and monitoring market is segmented on the basis of product and application. Based on product, the pathogen or plant disease detection and monitoring market is segmented as diagnostic kits, digital solutions, and laboratory services. By application, the market is segmented into open fields and controlled environments.
The diagnostic kits category is expected to hold a major share in the global pathogen or plant disease detection and monitoring market. The rising demand for diagnostic kits underscores their pivotal role in modern agriculture, facilitating a proactive and efficient approach to pathogen and plant disease detection and monitoring. This trend is likely to continue as advancement in technology continues to advance, and the importance of sustainable and high-yield agriculture remains a global priority. Diagnostic kits are designed to be user-friendly, enabling farmers with varying technical expertise to perform on-site testing. This accessibility contributes to their widespread adoption in diverse agricultural settings.
The open field segment is projected to grow at a rapid rate in the global pathogen or plant disease detection and monitoring market. The scalability and adaptability of these technologies further fuel the demand for open-field applications. Whether on small family farms or increasing large-scale agricultural operations, the flexibility of open-field solutions allows for widespread adoption, catering to the varying needs and capacities of farmers. This democratization of access to plant disease detection tools empowers a broader segment of the agricultural community. Additionally, the globalization of agriculture underscores the importance of standardized and efficient monitoring practices. Open-field applications provide a standardized approach that aligns with global agricultural standards, facilitating seamless integration into international supply chains.
The North American pathogen or plant disease detection and monitoring market is expected to register the highest market share. Due to factors such as the escalating occurrence of plant diseases, the existence of a robust diagnostic infrastructure, and the increasing adoption of innovative assay technologies, the market is experiencing notable growth. Furthermore, the market is being positively driven by the heightened government support and funding dedicated to safeguarding crops and plants in the region. Source: Specify the source if available.
