Biopesticides Market by Type (Bioinsecticides, Biofungicides, Bionematicides), Crop Type (Cereals & Grains, Oilseeds & Pulses), Formulation (Liquid and Dry), Source (Microbials, Biochemicals) Mode of Application, Region - Global Forecast to 2028

Biopesticides Market by Type (Bioinsecticides, Biofungicides, Bionematicides), Crop Type (Cereals & Grains, Oilseeds & Pulses), Formulation (Liquid and Dry), Source (Microbials, Biochemicals) Mode of Application, Region - Global Forecast to 2028

The biopesticides market is projected to grow from USD 6.7 billion in 2023 to USD 13.9 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 15.9% during the forecast period. The surging consumer demand for organic and pesticide-free food has significantly propelled the biopesticides market. Farmers engaged in organic crop production heavily rely on biopesticides to meet consumer expectations and maintain compliance with stringent organic certification standards. Moreover, the increasing global demand for sustainable agricultural practices has emerged as a pivotal driver. Biopesticides serve as an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic pesticides, perfectly aligning with the overarching goal of sustainable farming by mitigating environmental impact.

“Biofungicides is the second largest segment among types of biopesticides in 2022. “

The increasing consumer demand for food products free from pesticide residues has contributed to the rising popularity of biofungicides. Biofungicides are favored as they leave minimal to no residue on crops. Copper-based biofungicides, like Bordeaux mixture, have been widely employed in organic farming for many years to effectively control fungal diseases without leaving harmful residues. Furthermore, the growing adoption of sustainable farming practices has further propelled the demand for biofungicides. These eco-friendly solutions align with integrated pest management (IPM) strategies and organic farming principles. For instance, biofungicides derived from Trichoderma species, such as Trichoderma harzianum, offer dual benefits by effectively combating diseases like Fusarium and Rhizoctonia while promoting plant growth and enhancing soil health.

“The application of biopesticides in fruits & vegetables is accounting for the largest share in the crop type segment.”

The demand for pesticide-free and residue-free fruits and vegetables is rising among consumers. Biopesticides, derived from natural sources, provide a safer alternative to chemical pesticides while leaving minimal residues on crops. This meets the growing preference for healthier and more sustainable food choices. Fruits and vegetables rely on beneficial insects for pollination and pest control, and biopesticides pose minimal risks to these organisms, ensuring their survival and maintaining ecological balance. Additionally, many biopesticides have shorter pre-harvest intervals, allowing farmers to manage pests closer to harvest time without exceeding residue limits, providing flexibility in pest and disease management.

“Asia Pacific is projected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period in the biopesticides market.”

The Asia Pacific region is characterized by its diverse range of crops and high pest pressure, creating a strong demand for effective pest control solutions. Biopesticides have emerged as targeted alternatives for managing specific pests and diseases while minimizing environmental impact. For example, in rice cultivation, biopesticides based on Bacillus thuringiensis have proven successful in controlling the rice stem borer, a major pest in the region. Moreover, the Asia Pacific region has experienced notable growth in organic farming, where biopesticides play a vital role in pest management strategies. Organic farmers rely on biopesticides to meet the increasing consumer demand for organic produce, driving the adoption and market growth of these eco-friendly solutions in the region.
