Plant Genomics Market Size Forecast: How Big Could The Market Get By 2030?
The plant genomics market has observed robust growth in recent years. Its valuation is set to climb from $11.83 billion in 2025 to $12.91 billion in 2026, indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. This historical expansion can be traced to elements such as limited genetic understanding of crops, rising demand for high-yield varieties, traditional breeding inefficiencies, increasing food security concerns, and early advancements in dna sequencing.
The plant genomics market size is anticipated to undergo significant expansion in the foreseeable future. It is forecasted to reach $18.9 billion by 2030, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. This growth during the projected period stems from several factors, including the swift uptake of genome editing tools, increasing investment in plant biotechnology, a growing demand for climate-resilient crops, broadening applications of bioinformatics and ai, and enhanced regulatory backing for gene-editing research. Key trends anticipated over the forecast period encompass the increasing adoption of high-throughput genome sequencing, greater integration of bioinformatics within crop research, expanded utilization of genomic tools for trait mapping, the broadening of precision breeding techniques for enhancing yield and stress tolerance, and a heightened emphasis on multi-omics approaches in plant betterment.

Plant Genomics Market Industry Drivers: What’s Behind The Revenue Growth?
The rising demand for genetically modified plants is anticipated to drive the expansion of the plant genomics market in the future. These are biological plants whose genetic makeup has been altered through the application of recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology. Research in plant genomics assists genetically modified plants by altering their growth characteristics or by enhancing their resistance to diseases. The incorporation of a particular DNA segment into a plant’s genome results in a genetically modified plant possessing novel or distinct attributes. For instance, in February 2024, according to AgbioInvestor-GM, a Scotland-based analytical firm in biologicals market, the global area under GM crops increased by 1.9% in 2023 over the previous year, reaching a record 206.3 million hectares. Consequently, the heightened demand for genetically modified plants is fueling the growth of the plant genomics market.
