Expected Expansion and Market Outlook Through 2030
Looking ahead, the post-harvest treatment market is forecasted to maintain robust growth, reaching $2.83 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 8.5%. This surge is fueled by growing consumer demand for fresh produce, the expansion of refrigerated transport networks, heightened attention to food security, the broadening of international agricultural trade, and advancements in treatment technologies. Key market trends include the wider adoption of post-harvest coatings to extend shelf life, increased use of ethylene blockers for fruit storage, greater demand for fungicide treatments to prevent spoilage, and the rising application of wax and edible coatings on fresh produce, all contributing to reduced post-harvest losses.

Understanding Post-Harvest Treatment and Its Importance
Post-harvest treatment encompasses various processes applied to fresh fruits and vegetables before storage, aimed at minimizing spoilage while enhancing appearance and marketability. These treatments include curing, waxing, applying growth regulators, and degradation methods. Additionally, such practices help mitigate damage caused by cooling during refrigerated storage, ensuring that produce maintains quality throughout handling and distribution.

Population Growth as a Key Driver for Post-Harvest Treatment Market Expansion
One of the primary factors propelling the post-harvest treatment market is the steady increase in global population. As more people inhabit specific regions or countries, the demand for food security intensifies. Post-harvest treatments play a crucial role in preserving the nutritional value of crops, extending shelf life, and reducing losses, which collectively support a more efficient and sustainable food supply chain. For instance, in January 2025, the Congressional Budget Office reported that the U.S. population is expected to grow from 350 million in 2025 to 372 million by 2055, along with an aging demographic. This demographic shift underlines the rising need for effective post-harvest solutions to meet future food demands.
