China dominated the Asia-Pacific tomato seed market due to higher area and higher adoption of hybrids
- In 2022, the Asia-Pacific region had a major share because the area under tomato cultivation accounted for 47.3% of the global area under tomato cultivation. Thus, a larger area under tomato cultivation is expected to increase the sales of the seeds during the forecast period.
- China is the largest country, accounting for 24% of the global tomato seed market in 2022. This was owing to the increase in hybrid availability, and most of the tomatoes were grown in greenhouses, which accounted for more than 50% of China's tomato production in 2022.
- India is the second major country in the region for tomato production. In the country, the protected cultivation of tomatoes accounted for only 6% of the total tomato seed market in 2022, which was expected to grow faster than the open-field cultivation of tomatoes. For instance, the CAGR of the protected cultivation segment in the country is expected to be 7%, whereas open-field cultivation is expected to be 5% during the forecast period.
- In Pakistan, tomatoes occupied 22.4% of the vegetable seed market value in 2022. Sindh is the major tomato-producing state, accounting for 45% of the total area. Tomatoes are mainly grown by small land-holding farmers in Pakistan. It offers relatively better profits to growers and generates employment opportunities for rural people. Therefore, these factors will help increase the area under cultivation, which is expected to drive the seed market. Other major countries include Myanmar, Indonesia, and Japan.
- The increase in greenhouse cultivation and higher consumption demand drive the seed demand in the region. Therefore, the market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 4% during the forecast period.

The demand for disease-resistant hybrids is expected to decrease crop loss. Tomato is one of the largest segments of vegetables as it is a high-value crop and is in high demand by processing industries for tomato puree, ketchup industry, and others. Major companies such as Rijk Zwaan, East-West Seed, and Namdhari Seeds have tomato seed varieties in Asia-Pacific that are resistant to viral diseases such as leaf curl virus. For instance, in 2022, Rijk Zwaan launched new tomato seed varieties resistant to the tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV). Moreover, in 2021, East-West Seed introduced a new tomato hybrid seed variety, EW 815, to resist bacterial wilt and tomato yellow leaf curl disease.
- The major trait important for tomato seeds for fetching high returns from the processing and fresh markets is high lycopene content, which is responsible for the red color of tomatoes. The greenhouse and protected cultivation hybrid seeds contain these traits. The other traits available for tomatoes are longer shelf life, wider adaptability to different regions and climate conditions, resistance to cracking, and other quality traits such as shape, color, and size. These are important traits to meet the demand for processing industries because they require high-quality tomatoes to produce products.
