The global biopesticides market was valued at $7,012.70 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $33,638.90 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 13.9% from 2022 to 2031. Biopesticide is a microbial toxin, which is biological poison generated from microorganisms such as bacteria or fungi. Pathogenesis by microbial entomopathogens begins with pathogen infiltration through the insect's stomach, followed by pathogen growth, which results in the insect's death.
The biopesticides market is primarily driven by the demand for organic goods and those generated via organic farming. Biopesticides, led by Bacillus thuringiensis (bt)-based products, have gained commercial acceptance as an alternative for traditional insecticides, nematicides, and fungicides in agricultural applications. Furthermore, increase in the expense of using synthetic pesticides contributes to the growth of the biopesticides market. This provides biopesticide producers with an excellent potential to increase market share through commercial and organic farming output.
Biopesticides offer a wide range of uses in food packaging, which is one of the primary drivers driving the market growth. Furthermore, rise inneed for practical and easy-to-use packaging has boosted the demand for barrier features to keep food fresh and extend its shelf life. Biopesticides are used in food packaging to reduce material waste and allow easy and customizable packaging. Furthermore, biopesticides lower food packaging costs, resulting in increased usage.
Biopesticides in organic agriculture solve a number of environmental and social challenges while also providing producers, laborers, and consumers with new and economically feasible options. This is one of the primary factors of the biopesticides market's expansion. Consumers prefer organic food over conventional food to prevent the negative health consequences associated with chemical preservatives, which drives producers toward organic horticulture that use biopesticides rather than toxins. Increase in environmental concerns cleared the path for the usage of bio-based insecticides. According to Research Institute of Organic Agriculture(FiBL) figures, the organic area in Europe expanded from 16.4 million hectares in 2019 to 17.0 million hectares in 2020
Rise in demand for the adoption of sustainable and cost-effective solutions has fueled product development and innovation in the biopesticides industry. Manufacturers are now aware of the side effects caused by pheromones, and hence they are introducing new biopesticides variants that help to eradicate the pests and do not interfere with the growth rate of the crops.Manufacturers are anticipated to benefit from the newer prospects, owing to increase in stringency of chemical-residue-related laws, greater integration of Integral Pest Management (IPM) programs in developing nations, and quicker licensing of biopesticides than chemical pesticides. Innovations in liquid formulation of biopesticides for foliar application have emerged,as the category continues to grow in popularity.
The cost of using synthetic pesticides is increasing daily, boosting the need for biopesticides, which promotes market growth. The introduction of genetically modified (GM) seeds was expected to reduce the demand for pesticides, but investigations have revealed that this is not the case. This provides biopesticide producers with an excellent potential to increase market share through commercial and organic farming output. Furthermore, biopesticides assist farmers, packers/shippers, food processors, food merchants, and consumers in several ways. They can be used to manage illness and nuisances, such as mosquito and tick control, therefore protecting public health. In agricultural applications, biopesticides are beneficial to crop quality and yield, thus helping farmers in delivering affordable and healthy fruits and vegetables to consumers across the globe. Through their highly targeted modes of action, biopesticides also allow farmers to maintain beneficial insect population in their fields, reducing the dependency of farmers on conventional chemical pesticides.
The biopesticides market is segmented on the basis of product type, formulation, crop type, and region. Depending on the product type, the market is fragmented into microbial, predators, and others. By formulation, the market is divided into dry form and liquid form. According to corn type, the market is categorized into orchards, grazing & dry land, and field crops. Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, the UK, France, Italy, Russia Federation, Spain, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, and rest of LAMEA).

Executive Summary
According to this report titled, 'Biopesticides Market,' the biopesticides market was valued at $7,012.70 million in 2020, and is estimated to reach $33,638.90 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 13.9% from 2022 to 2031.Microbial pesticides (products that contain microorganisms, such as bacterium or fungus as the active ingredient) and biochemical pesticides (products that contain naturally occurring substances, such as insect sex pheromones, certain plant extracts, and fatty acids) provide several advantages to farmers. Biopesticides are competitive in both price and efficiency. Biopesticide products provide viable alternatives in situations where conventional chemical pesticides and genetically modified crops are subject to regulatory restrictions. Biopesticides comply with market-imposed requirements for pest management programs by food processors and retailers. Furthermore, biopesticides are eco-friendly and meet stringent organic farming requirements. Biopesticides are exempted from the maximum residue limit (MRL) that is applied to synthetic pesticides and are expected to encourage the development of insect, fungal, and bacterial resistance.
One of the pillars of sustainable agriculture is an effective Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. IPM uses biological controls (such as predatory insects), cultural practices, and chemical management to keep pest population under control. However, if a pest problem becomes serious chemicals are used. Farmer has two choices, which includes standard & synthetic product or an organic biopesticide. The main advantage of adopting biopesticides into a sustainable agricultural system is that the pesticides are environmentally safe and do not harm the soil or water supply. The adoption of biopesticides is increasing the sales which is fueling the growth of the global biopesticides market size.
Presently, biopesticides are important components in IPM programs as the availability of synthetic pesticides is declining rapidly as a result of new legislation and the evolution of resistance in pest populations. In addition, there are new biopesticides market opportunities for the development of biopesticides in IPM by combining ecological science with post-genomics technologies. These new biopesticide products are expected to give rise to new regulatory and economic challenges that must be addressed through joint working between social and natural scientists, policymakers, and the biopesticides industry.
Depending onvalue, Europe and LAMEA collectively contributed approximately 40% share of the global market in 2021. Emerging countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Chile display a huge growth potential for this market on account of high agricultural operation and decent number of population shifting toward agricultural sector in these countries.
