Abstract, Snapshot, Market Analysis & Market Definition: Food Biotechnology Market 
Industry / Sector Trends

Global Food Biotechnology Market size was valued at over USD 23 billion in 2018 and is anticipated to witness over 10% CAGR up to 2025.

Increasing penetration of advanced technologies to develop new products by modifying plants, animals, and microorganisms genes to provide innovative solutions is driving the market growth. Shifting trends towards healthy lifestyles accompanied by a rise in processed food demand has urged the F&B manufacturers to improve the nutritional content in their products, thereby generating new growth opportunities for the biotech-based industry players. Further, there is a requirement to enhance the shelf life and taste of food by the use of encapsulation techniques and other ingredients.

Strong growth in functional food & beverages and dietary supplements industry is resulting in increased competitiveness, thus propelling the food biotechnology market revenue. As per CCI, the global nutraceutical market including functional F&B and dietary supplements is projected to reach USD 241 billion in 2019, observing around 7% CAGR from 2014 to 2019. Factors such as robust expansion of food industry and low-cost biotech services particular in developing countries has escalated the adoption of services.

Stringent government regulations to enhance product quality and transparency are among the foremost aspects attributing to food biotech solutions. Also, modifications in labeling regulations asking for a declaration of GMOs, allergens, and nutritional content is surging the industry share. Further, consumer-driven movements such as ˜clean label has urged food manufacturers to improve the quality by using natural ingredients instead of artificial constituents.

Changes in climatic conditions over the years has resulted in increased production of genetically modified (GM) crops or ingredients through the use of biotech services. This provides plants with improved resistance to diseases, insecticides, and herbicides, as well as extending the shelf life of the produce. However, growth in the organic food industry can hamper the demand for GM crops, thus affecting the food biotechnology industry share.
