The global biopesticides market is expected to be valued at USD 3.71 billion in 2023, and it is estimated to reach a valuation of USD 6.90 billion by the end of 2028, expanding at a CAGR of 13.2% between 2023 and 2028.
Biopesticides are substances with are made of bio-based formulations such as animals, plants, bacteria and minerals. Biopesticides are used to kill pests, which will damage the crops and exhibit the growth of the plant as well as crops. Sometimes, biopesticides contain live bacteria, which produce toxins, and these toxins kill harmful pests that damage the crops. The biopesticides can be classified into Biochemical insecticides, Microbials and Plant-incorporated protectants. The biopesticides do not cause any harmful effect on the environment as it does not leave any residue over the plants like chemical products. Bio-pesticides offer log-term protection to the crop as well as soil. It is easy to handle and use. Biopesticides are safer as it does not contain harmful chemicals which cause hazards to crop, human, animals and the soil as compared to synthetic pesticides. Biopesticides are very useful in those cases where farmers are not able to control pests in spite of using heavy usages of chemical pesticides. Owing to these benefits, the demand of biopesticides is increasing which further propelling the growth of the global biopesticides market in the forecast period between 2023 and 2028.
MARKET DRIVERS:
The driving force of the biopesticides market is the increasing demand for organic food by the population around the globe. Consumers are becoming more concerned about health and shifting their focus towards organic food, which is fueling the demand for biopesticides in the market. Also, to meet the demand of export quality products, the use of biopesticides is increasing.
Biopesticides or biological are safer and easier for the environment than chemical products and are often formulated to only affect the pests, which is propelling the demand for biopesticides over chemical products. The bio-pesticides are residue-free and do not affect the environment. Therefore, the government of several countries has imposed strict regulations for environmental pollution, which is driving the growth of the biopesticides market.
The increasing awareness of the adverse effects of chemicals in the crops as well as health and the benefits of using biopesticides, fueling the demand for biopesticides in developing countries. Moreover, the government of these countries is supporting farmers for organic agriculture, further fueling the growth of the market in the forecast period. Additionally, the key players are also investing huge amounts in research and development of bio-based crop protection solutions, which if boosting the growth of the global biopesticides market in the forecast period.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
Lack of awareness related to the benefits of biopesticides among farmers in developing countries and some of the developing countries hampering the growth of the market. Additionally, biopesticides have less shelf life as compared to synthetic chemicals, which is restricting the growth of the market.
Impact of COVID-19 on global biopesticides market:
The Global Biopesticides market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The complete lockdown during this pandemic has adversely affected many industries, including agriculture and crop protection. In the Agriculture sector, the biopesticides market was slowed down due to disturbances in transportation and logistics, Moreover, the Biopesticide market has experienced interruptions in the entire value chain from raw materials supply to manufacturing, packing and distribution. Furthermore, the lockdown and movement restriction have led to the unavailability of the workforce, which has affected production as well as trade movements. The market situation is recovering from 2021, and now it is expected that the growth of the Biopesticide market will increase in the near future.

This research report on the global biopesticides market has been segmented and sub-segmented into the following categories.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Type:
Based on type, the bioinsecticides segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period as bioinsecticides are safe for use and pose no hazards to the environment and they do not leave behind any chemical residue on the plants. Also, the reduced product development cost and the time associated with bioinsecticides offer advantages to the manufacturers and they can also register within a short duration while chemical registration can take as long as three years.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Source:
Based on sources, the Global Biopesticides market is segmented into Microbials, Biochemicals, and Beneficial Insects. Microbial biopesticides are estimated to dominate the biopesticides market in the forecast period as microbial-origin pesticides are naturally composed of occurring viruses, fungi or bacteria. The microbials are the most preferred organic and residue-free food production. Factors such as the higher advantage of selectivity, high affectivity, no adverse effects on humans, plants and animals and ease of use are propelling the growth of the biopesticides market.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Formulation:
Based on Formulation, the Global Biopesticides market is segmented into liquid and dry. Liquid biopesticides is estimated to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Liquid biopesticides have a longer term of action (up to 6 months) than dry biopesticides (up to 3 months) and provide effective and efficient disease control performance.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Mode of Application:
Based on Formulation, the Global Biopesticides market is segmented into Seed treatment, Soil treatment, Foliar Spray, and Others. Foliar spray is widely used among farmers because it helps in the immediate recovery of the pests insecticides parts of the plants. This is most effective mode of application as it is safe and easily handled application.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Crop:
Based on Crop, the Global Biopesticides market is segmented into Grains and Cereals, Pulses and Oilseeds, Vegetables and Fruits, Others. Vegetable and fruit segment is expected to boost the market growth during the forecast period due to growing trend of organic agriculture and the increasing demand of organic fruits and vegetables. Moreover, the farmers are using combination of biopesticides with other chemicals in order to meet the demand of export quality fruits and vegetables.
Global Biopesticides Market - By Region:
North America accounts to the largest market share of the biopesticides market due to rising concerns over the harmful chemical on the environment, the government of several countries has impost strict regulations associated with environment.
