Biological Control Market Insights, 2025: Biological Control: Key Drivers and Opportunities

Biological control refers to the use of natural organisms, such as predators, parasites, or pathogens, to control pest populations in agriculture and horticulture. The increasing global demand for organic farming, coupled with the rising concerns over the toxicity and environmental impact of chemical pesticides, is propelling the biological control market forward. Farmers and agricultural producers are seeking more sustainable and environmentally friendly pest management solutions to reduce reliance on chemical pesticides and herbicides.

Opportunities within the biological control market are plentiful, particularly in integrated pest management systems (IPM) that combine biological agents with other sustainable practices like crop rotation and soil health management. As consumer demand for organic and pesticide-free produce grows, there is a rising need for more effective and scalable biological control solutions. Research into new biocontrol agents, including insect and microbial agents, will expand the market by addressing diverse pest problems. Additionally, the growth of greenhouse farming, where pest management is critical, is further supporting the demand for biological control methods. Companies that focus on creating cost-effective, region-specific biocontrol agents will benefit from the growing trend toward sustainable agriculture.
