What Is The Expected Market Size Of The Genetic Engineering Plant Genomics Market From 2026 To 2030?

The genetic engineering plant genomics market has seen rapid expansion in recent years. Its value is anticipated to rise from $46.41 billion in 2025 to $53.65 billion in 2026, driven by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6%. Historically, this growth can be attributed to advancements in plant biotechnology research, the increasing demand for higher crop yields, the expansion of genetically modified crop cultivation, improvements in sequencing technologies, and increasing public and private research funding.

The genetic engineering plant genomics market size is anticipated to experience significant expansion in the coming years. It is forecast to reach $90 billion in 2030, demonstrating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%. This growth throughout the forecast period stems from factors such as the increasing implementation of precision breeding techniques, a heightened focus on developing climate-resilient crops, the broadening scope of genome editing regulatory approvals, rising investments in sustainable agriculture technologies, and an escalating demand for resource-efficient crop traits. Dominant trends during this period are expected to feature the growing adoption of CRISPR-based genome editing in crops, an intensified focus on plant varieties tolerant to abiotic stress, the increasing integration of genomic data analytics, an expansion of trait-specific crop development, and an enhanced emphasis on sustainable crop improvement.

What Major Drivers Are Influencing Demand In The Genetic Engineering Plant Genomics Market?

The increasing worries concerning food security are anticipated to drive the expansion of the genetic engineering plant genomics market in the future. Food security represents a state where all individuals consistently possess reliable access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food necessary for a healthy and active life. The growing concerns about food security originate from elements such as climate change, economic instability, and an expanding global population, all of which pose threats to the availability and accessibility of food. Genetic engineering within plant genomics enhances food security by developing crops with greater resilience to pests, diseases, and environmental stresses, thereby boosting agricultural productivity and stabilizing the food supply. As an illustration, in January 2025 according to the US Department of Agriculture, a US-based government agency responsible for food security statistics, 13.5 percent of US households or 18.0 million households faced food insecurity at some point during 2023, which is an increase compared with 12.8 percent or 17.0 million households in 2022. Thus, the escalating concerns regarding food security are expected to propel the growth of the genetic engineering plant genomics market.

How Are Trends Impacting The Genetic Engineering Plant Genomics Market?

Leading companies in the genetic engineering plant genomics market are prioritizing technological advancements, such as automated molecular breeding genotyping solutions, to enhance the precision and efficiency of crop breeding processes. An automated molecular breeding genotyping solution functions as a system that efficiently and accurately processes substantial volumes of plant samples, employing computerized technologies and software to streamline genetic analysis for breeding programs. For instance, in June 2024, MGI Tech, a China-based biotechnology company, launched a comprehensive workflow solution designed for agricultural large-scale low-pass whole genome sequencing. This new solution encompasses an automated full-process product portfolio specifically developed for extensive molecular breeding and genotyping of agricultural diploid species. The low-pass WGS solution, improved by MGI’s automation platforms, overcomes the limitations of conventional library preparation by achieving ultra-high throughput with minimal tools. It enables rapid, cost-effective large-scale library preparation and supports high throughput using the DNBSEQ-T7 sequencer and medium throughput with the DNBSEQ-G400 benchtop sequencer, which is highly suitable for agricultural genomics research.
