United States Agricultural Biologicals Market Trends
Increase in organic area, particularly in row crops, due to country's laws and regulations
- Organic agriculture in the United States has increased significantly over the last 20 years, owing mostly to the introduction of particular laws and regulations. In 2021, the area under organic agricultural farming in the United States was 623 thousand hectares.
- California is the nation’s top state for agricultural sales overall, and it is also the leader in organic production, with more than 3,000 organic farms. In relative terms, several other states devote a greater share of their farmland to organic farming than California, where organic farms represent only about 4% of the state’s agricultural acreage. Instead, the list of top states for organic farms on a relative basis is led by northeastern states, including Maine, New York, and Vermont.
- Row crops dominate organic farming in the nation. In 2021, they accounted for about 71.8% of all organic cropland. The production of cereal crops predominates. The main cereals include maize, wheat, rice, and millet. The consumption of organic products has become popular among US consumers, who increasingly choose to eat organic foods because of their various health benefits.
- An increasing trend was observed in the overall organic horticulture crop cultivation area, from 112.9 thousand hectares in 2017 to 156.1 thousand hectares in 2021. Regarding domestic production in 2021, the top five fruits and vegetables were apples (31.1%), strawberries (9.5%), oranges (6.9%), romaine lettuce (6.7%), and potatoes (6.2%). In the case of trade, the most imported produce was bananas (53.1%), avocados (7.7%), mangoes (5.8%), blueberries (5.0%), and squash (4.3%), while the most exported were apples (80.0%), pears (14.4%), cherries (4.0%), dried onions (1.5%), and potatoes (0.2%).
Growing demand for organic produce especially in the fruits and vegetables sector, rise in per capita spending on organic food
- The United States is one of the largest organic product consumers in the world. In 2020, the country's total sales of organic food products accounted for USD 51.6 billion, according to the Nutrition Business Journal (NBJ, 2021). In 2021, the United States had the largest per capita spending on organic products in the North American region, worth USD 158.0.
- Organic fresh fruits and vegetables have been the leading organic food category since the organic food retail industry began. In 2020, retail sales for these organic products were valued at USD 20.0 billion, showing a growing demand for organic produce. The demand for organic fresh fruits and vegetables has steadily risen over the past two decades. Organic food sales are rising due to growing consumer awareness, especially among high-income consumers. The most in-demand organic categories include basic foods like eggs, dairy, fruits, and vegetables.
- Organic food preferences vary by demographic and region. Younger people of age between 18-29 are more likely to seek out organic products (over 50%) compared to older people aged 65 and above. Income and region also play a role, with 42% of those with under USD 30 thousand income and 49% of those with over USD 75.0 thousand seeking organic products.
- The per capita spending on organic products is increasing in the country, and it recorded a CAGR of 5.2% from 2017 to 2021. The growing demand for organic products creates opportunities for US organic producers to tap into high-value markets domestically and abroad. The price premium associated with organic products is one of the major limiting factors for organic food consumption for low-level income consumers.

Keyword | Definition |
---|---|
Cash Crops | Cash crops are non-consumable crops sold as a whole or part of the crop to manufacture end-products to make a profit. |
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) | IPM is an environment-friendly and sustainable approach to control pests in various crops. It involves a combination of methods, including biological controls, cultural practices, and selective use of pesticides. |
Bacterial biocontrol agents | Bacteria used to control pests and diseases in crops. They work by producing toxins harmful to the target pests or competing with them for nutrients and space in the growing environment. Some examples of commonly used bacterial biocontrol agents include Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), Pseudomonas fluorescens, and Streptomyces spp. |
Plant Protection Product (PPP) | A plant protection product is a formulation applied to crops to protect from pests, such as weeds, diseases, or insects. They contain one or more active substances with other co-formulants such as solvents, carriers, inert material, wetting agents or adjuvants formulated to give optimum product efficacy. |
Pathogen | A pathogen is an organism causing disease to its host, with the severity of the disease symptoms. |
Parasitoids | Parasitoids are insects that lay their eggs on or within the host insect, with their larvae feeding on the host insect. In agriculture, parasitoids can be used as a form of biological pest control, as they help to control pest damage to crops and decrease the need for chemical pesticides. |
Entomopathogenic Nematodes (EPN) | Entomopathogenic nematodes are parasitic roundworms that infect and kill pests by releasing bacteria from their gut. Entomopathogenic nematodes are a form of biocontrol agents used in agriculture. |
Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM) | VAM fungi are mycorrhizal species of fungus. They live in the roots of different higher-order plants. They develop a symbiotic relationship with the plants in the roots of these plants. |
Fungal biocontrol agents | Fungal biocontrol agents are the beneficial fungi that control plant pests and diseases. They are an alternative to chemical pesticides. They infect and kill the pests or compete with pathogenic fungi for nutrients and space. |
Biofertilizers | Biofertilizers contain beneficial microorganisms that enhance soil fertility and promote plant growth. |
Biopesticides | Biopesticides are natural/bio-based compounds used to manage agricultural pests using specific biological effects. |
Predators | Predators in agriculture are the organisms that feed on pests and help control pest damage to the crops. Some common predator species used in agriculture include ladybugs, lacewings, and predatory mites. |
Biocontrol agents | Biocontrol agents are living organisms used to control pests and diseases in agriculture. They are alternatives to chemical pesticides and are known for their lesser impact on the environment and human health. |
Organic Fertilizers | Organic fertilizer is composed of animal or vegetable matter used alone or in combination with one or more non-synthetically derived elements or compounds used for soil fertility and plant growth. |
Protein hydrolysates (PHs) | Protein hydrolysate-based biostimulants contain free amino acids, oligopeptides, and polypeptides produced by enzymatic or chemical hydrolysis of proteins, primarily from vegetal or animal sources. |
Biostimulants/Plant Growth Regulators (PGR) | Biostimulants/Plant Growth Regulators (PGR) are substances derived from natural resources to enhance plant growth and health by stimulating plant processes (metabolism). |
Soil Amendments | Soil Amendments are substances applied to soil that improve soil health, such as soil fertility and soil structure. |
Seaweed Extract | Seaweed extracts are rich in micro and macronutrients, proteins, polysaccharides, polyphenols, phytohormones, and osmolytes. These substances boost seed germination and crop establishment, total plant growth and productivity. |
Compounds related to biocontrol and/or promoting growth (CRBPG) | Compounds related to biocontrol or promoting growth (CRBPG) are the ability of a bacteria to produce compounds for phytopathogen biocontrol and plant growth promotion. |
Symbiotic Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria | Symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium obtain food and shelter from the host, and in return, they help by providing fixed nitrogen to the plants. |
Nitrogen Fixation | Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process in soil which converts molecular nitrogen into ammonia or related nitrogenous compounds. |
ARS (Agricultural Research Service) | ARS is the U.S. Department of Agriculture's chief scientific in-house research agency. It aims to find solutions to agricultural problems faced by the farmers in the country. |
Phytosanitary Regulations | Phytosanitary regulations imposed by the respective government bodies check or prohibit the importation and marketing of certain insects, plant species, or products of these plants to prevent the introduction or spread of new plant pests or pathogens. |
Ectomycorrhizae (ECM) | Ectomycorrhiza (ECM) is a symbiotic interaction of fungi with the feeder roots of higher plants in which both the plant and the fungi benefit through the association for survival. |
