The study involved two major approaches in estimating the current size of the plant breeding and CRISPR plants market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer, and parent markets. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
This research study involved the extensive use of secondary sources—directories and databases such as Bloomberg Businessweek and Factiva—to identify and collect information useful for a technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the market.
In the secondary research process, various sources such as annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies, white papers, food journals, certified publications, articles from recognized authors, directories, and databases were referred to identify and collect information.
Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information about the industry’s supply chain, the total pool of key players, and market classification and segmentation as per the industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from both market- and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after obtaining information regarding the plant breeding and CRISPR plants market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand and supply sides across major countries of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Rest of the World. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts, such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), Directors from business development, marketing, research, and development teams, and related key executives from distributors and key opinion leaders. Primary interviews were conducted to gather insights such as market statistics, data on revenue collected from the products and services, market breakdowns, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation. Primary research also helped in understanding the various trends related to type, trait, technology, application, and region. Stakeholders from the demand side, such as research institutions, government institutions, agri-businesses, and food & beverage manufacturing comapnies were interviewed to understand the buyer’s perspective on the suppliers, products, and their current usage of plant breeding and CRISPR plants and the outlook of their business, which will affect the overall market.
Note 1: Others include sales managers, marketing managers, and product managers.
Note 2: Tier 1 companies’ revenues are more than USD 10 billion; tier 2 companies’ revenues range between USD 1 and 10 billion; and tier 3 companies’ revenues range between USD 500 million and USD 1 billion.

Plant Breeding and CRISPR Plants Market : Top-Down and Bottom-Up Approach
Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size from the estimation process explained above, the total market was split into the application segment and sub-segments. The data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed to estimate the overall plant breeding and CRISPR plants market and arrive at the exact statistics for all sub-segments, wherever applicable. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from the demand and supply sides. The market size was also validated using both the top-down and bottom-up approaches.
Market Definition
According to the National Association of Plant Breeders, “plant breeding is the science-driven creative process of developing new plant varieties that goes by various names including cultivar development, crop improvement, and seed improvement. Breeding involves the creation of multi-generation genetically diverse populations on which human selection is practiced to create adapted plants with new combinations of specific desirable traits.”
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), plant breeding is the “art and science of genetically improving plants for the benefit of humankind. Plant breeding can be accomplished through many different techniques ranging from simply selecting plants with desirable characteristics for propagation, to more complex molecular techniques. Plant breeding has a proven track record in increasing crop productivity.”
Additionally, gene editing technology accelerates breeding processes more efficiently than cross-breeding, mutation breeding, or transgenesis, as per FAO Director-General, who studied plant breeding and genetics and made important contributions to understanding the potato genome. It encompasses various molecular techniques, with CRISPR driving a surge in research and applications. CRISPR is faster and more cost-effective than traditional breeding methods, enabling the development of climate-resilient and nutrient-rich crops and livestock while preserving genetic biodiversity and strengthening agrifood systems.
In general terms, multiple seed manufacturers define plant breeding as crossing of two plants to produce an offspring that, ideally, shares the best traits of the two parent plants. Traditionally, conventional breeding techniques were practiced for the development of new traits and seeds. With the advent of biotechnology in agriculture, hybridization, molecular breeding, and genetic engineering are currently being explored by plant breeders. Consequently, the CRISPR plants market focuses on the application of gene-editing technologies to develop crops with enhanced traits such as improved yield, pest resistance, and environmental adaptability.
