Likewise, the shift in consumer preference towards a higher standard of food safety and quality in terms of chemical residues creates the need to maintain soil properties for quality production, thus enhancing the growth of the market over the years. forecast period.

Since then, the predominance of quality assurance in agricultural testing has been due to the fact that it helps solve the main problems related to soil fertility, the quality of the water available for irrigation facilities and the Identification of the necessary nutrients essential for a more robust growth and development of crops and other produce, this market is hardly impacted by the pandemic that is raging in the world. Europe accounted for the largest market share in the agricultural testing market. The dominance of this region is attributed to the stringency of regulations and laws relating to food safety, environment and agriculture regarding nutritional content, chemicals and labeling.

The electrophoretic method is used for the evaluation of seed storage proteins. In addition, the electrophoretic method can be used for cultivar identification and testing of seed purity of cultivars, while serological methods are suitable for identifying seed species and determining the species composition of the seed. mixtures. In addition, the serological method makes it possible to display the species specificity of the seed proteins. The shift in consumer preference towards a higher standard of food safety and quality, in terms of chemical residues, creates the need to maintain soil properties for quality production, thus enhancing the growth of the market over the years. forecast period.
