Middle-East And Africa BioPesticide Market

Middle East and Africa Bio pesticide Market Size, Growth, Trends and Forecast:

Middle East and Africa Biopesticide Market is estimated to reach USD 0.48 billion by 2026 from USD 1.32 billion in 2021 at a CAGR of 19.79%.

In general, the African and Middle Eastern markets are small and undeveloped. Agriculture is too basic in the poor countries of this region for this product sector. However, in some countries, notably South Africa and Kenya, growth is occurring and, overall, the market is on the increase. Based on the product there remain numerous opportunities throughout the region for market development. Bt-based products are dominant in Africa and the Middle East; taking 77% of the overall microbial bio pesticide market. There has been little development of local production for local use projects in Africa. Fungal- and viral-based products are therefore comparatively undeveloped in this region.

Bio pesticide are substances made form materials like plants (plant-incorporated protectants or PIP’s), micro-organisms (microbial pesticides) and certain minerals (biochemical pesticides). These are replacing conventional pesticides from the market due to their non-toxic quality and target specific behavior. As Bio pesticide target only specific pests which are needed to be destroyed but the conventional pesticides can even harm birds, animals or even human beings.

Bio pesticide are advantageous for farmers as well as for the environment. They are usually inherently less toxic than conventional bio pesticides, they are comparatively cheaper and effective, decomposes well without leaving any harmful residues, have substantially nullified impact on non-targeted species and can greatly reduce the use of conventional pesticides with high yield.
