The company offers wide range of biological plant protection products like biofungicides and bioinsecticides to customers, which target a wide range of crop pests.

  • Biopesticides are naturally occurring substances or agents derived from animals, plants, insects, and microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi, used to manage agricultural pests and infections. The African biopesticides market grew by 23.4% from 2017 to 2022.
  • Biopesticide consumption in row crops is higher than other crops in the region, accounting for 73.8% in 2022. Horticultural crops accounted for 19.7%, while cash crops accounted for 6.5% of the overall consumption in the same year.
  • The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) concept is important in the African biopesticides market. IPM 1.0 was established decades ago to reduce the overuse of agricultural pesticides. IPM 2.0 gradually incorporated agroecological principles such as biological control and habitat management. However, throughout this period, smallholder farmers did not improve their decision-making skills and continued to rely on hazardous pesticides as their first line of defense. The African region also implemented Integrated Pest Management 3.0 (IPM 3.0), which includes three new features, i.e., real-time farmer decision-making access, pest-management options based on science and nature, and the integration of genomic approaches, biopesticides, and habitat-management practices. These IPM practices may drive the biopesticides market in Africa.
  • In collaboration with Real IPM Ltd, the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology commercialized two biopesticides, Campaign (icipe69) and Achieve (icipe78). Campaign (icipe69) is being used against mealybugs, thrips, and fruit flies, in crops such as cucumber, mango, papaya, rose, and tomato. Adoption of IPM practices and increased R&D activities of biopesticides may boost the market value by 84.7% during 2023-2029.
Africa Biopesticides Market
  • The African biopesticides market has exhibited a growth rate of 15.8% between 2017 and 2021, and this growth is expected to continue with a projected expansion of about 84.7% by 2029.
  • This growth is primarily attributed to the launch of Integrated Pest Management 3.0 (IPM 3.0) in Africa. This pest management strategy is based on three pillars: real-time farmer decision-making access, science-based pest-management alternatives, and the combination of genetic methods, biopesticides, and habitat-management strategies. These IPM methods are expected to play a critical role in driving the growth of the African biopesticides market.
  • Biofungicides are the dominant segment of the biopesticides market in the Rest of Africa segment, and it was valued at USD 45.6 million in 2022. Trichoderma is widely used as a biofungicide as it destroys other fungi enzymatically and produces anti-microbial substances that kill pathogenic fungi.
  • Egypt, South Africa, and the Rest of Africa are the primary segments in the African region regarding organic agriculture acreage. In 2022, the Rest of Africa accounted for 95.0% of total organic agricultural land in Africa, with 1.2 million hectares. Egypt contributed 3.5% with 45.1 thousand hectares, while South Africa accounted for 1.0% with 12.6 thousand hectares. The high organic agricultural acreage in these countries provides significant market opportunities.
  • The increasing consumer interest in organic products, growing awareness among farmers, and the economic advantages of using biopesticides are anticipated to drive the demand for biopesticides in Africa, and the market is expected to record a CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period.

Africa Biopesticides Market

Per capita spending on organic product predominant in Egypt, South Africa, and Nigeria countries

  • Africa's per capita income has consistently increased throughout the years, encouraging people to spend more money on nutritious food. Organic foods and beverages are gaining more shelf space in the African region. Since the domestic consumption of certified organic produce is relatively small, most organic goods are produced for export.
  • In Africa, consumption of organic products has increased significantly, especially in Egypt, South Africa, and Nigeria. In 2021, the per capita consumption of organic products was USD 55.5 in Egypt, followed by South Africa with USD 7.1. The countries with the highest number of organic producers were Ethiopia (almost 222,000), Tanzania (nearly 149,000), and Uganda (over 139,000).
  • In the African region, commonly consumed organic products include fresh vegetables and fruits. In Africa, significant efforts have been made to mainstream organic agriculture into policy, national extension systems, marketing, and value chain development. All these factors have gained the attention of consumers.
  • With the increasing per capita consumption of beverages, primarily fruit juices, growing health awareness, and consumers shifting toward organic drinks and food that do not contain chemical ingredients, the demand for the African organic food market is expected to grow during the forecast period.
  • However, low-income levels and a lack of organic standards and other infrastructure for local market certification are the major restraining factors for the growth of the organic market in the region.

Pathogen​ A pathogen is an organism causing disease to its host, with the severity of the disease symptoms.​
Parasitoids​ Parasitoids are insects that lay their eggs on or within the host insect, with their larvae feeding on the host insect. In agriculture, parasitoids can be used as a form of biological pest control, as they help to control pest damage to crops and decrease the need for chemical pesticides.​
Entomopathogenic Nematodes (EPN)​ Entomopathogenic nematodes are parasitic roundworms that infect and kill pests by releasing bacteria from their gut. Entomopathogenic nematodes are a form of biocontrol agents used in agriculture.​
Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM)​ VAM fungi are mycorrhizal species of fungus. They live in the roots of different higher-order plants. They develop a symbiotic relationship with the plants in the roots of these plants.​
Fungal biocontrol agents​ Fungal biocontrol agents are the beneficial fungi that control plant pests and diseases. They are an alternative to chemical pesticides. They infect and kill the pests or compete with pathogenic fungi for nutrients and space.​
Biofertilizers​ Biofertilizers contain beneficial microorganisms that enhance soil fertility and promote plant growth.​
Biopesticides​ Biopesticides are natural/bio-based compounds used to manage agricultural pests using specific biological effects.​
Predators​ Predators in agriculture are the organisms that feed on pests and help control pest damage to the crops. Some common predator species used in agriculture include ladybugs, lacewings, and predatory mites.​
Biocontrol agents​ Biocontrol agents are living organisms used to control pests and diseases in agriculture. They are alternatives to chemical pesticides and are known for their lesser impact on the environment and human health.​
Organic Fertilizers​ Organic fertilizer is composed of animal or vegetable matter used alone or in combination with one or more non-synthetically derived elements or compounds used for soil fertility and plant growth.​
Protein hydrolysates (PHs)​ Protein hydrolysate-based biostimulants contain free amino acids, oligopeptides, and polypeptides produced by enzymatic or chemical hydrolysis of proteins, primarily from vegetal or animal sources.​
Biostimulants/Plant Growth Regulators (PGR)​ Biostimulants/Plant Growth Regulators (PGR) are substances derived from natural resources to enhance plant growth and health by stimulating plant processes (metabolism).​
Soil Amendments​ Soil Amendments are substances applied to soil that improve soil health, such as soil fertility and soil structure.​
Seaweed Extract​ Seaweed extracts are rich in micro and macronutrients, proteins, polysaccharides, polyphenols, phytohormones, and osmolytes. These substances boost seed germination and crop establishment, total plant growth and productivity.​
Compounds related to biocontrol and/or promoting growth (CRBPG)​ Compounds related to biocontrol or promoting growth (CRBPG)​ are the ability of a bacteria to produce compounds for phytopathogen biocontrol and plant growth promotion.​
Symbiotic Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria​ Symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium obtain food and shelter from the host, and in return, they help by providing fixed nitrogen to the plants.​
Nitrogen Fixation​ Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process in soil which converts molecular nitrogen into ammonia or related nitrogenous compounds.​
ARS (Agricultural Research Service)​ ARS is the U.S. Department of Agriculture's chief scientific in-house research agency. It aims to find solutions to agricultural problems faced by the farmers in the country.​
