Brazil has a population of more than 200 million people that for sure need foods every day. Although our per capita vegetable consumption is not very high, vegetable are becoming more and more common on Brazilian diets. Specially on summer season and in a tropical country vegetables & fruits combined very well with weather and the diet.

As a consequence of it and spite of country economic and political situation Brazil’s vegetable seed market is a very dynamic one, and have been accepting many innovations on last years.

The Brazil’s vegetable seed market is estimated above USD250 million dollars at price paid by growers.

The evolution of market seed value had happened due to the increase utilization of hybrids and more sophisticated products (with more disease resistance, etc) as well as other crop management changes (increase use of

seedlings, so more pelleted seeds, increase plant population by area,(high density) etc).

In spite of such positive changes and increase of hybrids utilization we still have room to grow thru some market segment conversation to hybrids ( specially in onions, watermelon, okra, beets, etc).
