Global Agricultural Testing Market to reach USD 7.7 billion by 2025.

Global agricultural testing market is valued approximately USD 4.6 billion in 2017 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 6.64 % over the forecast period 2018-2025. Increase in outbreaks of foodborne illnesses and rapid industrialization leading to the disposable of untreated industrial waste are some key trends that are responsible for the wide adoption of agricultural testing globally. Moreover, growing demand for nutritious food would increase the adoption of agricultural testing as these are used to grow nutritious and health crop.
Global Agricultural Testing market is significantly driven by Increase in outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in November 2018, approximately 48 million get sick and 1,28,000 are hospitalized, 3,000 die from foodborne diseases each year in the United States.
