  • Biopesticides are naturally occurring substances or agents derived from animals, plants, insects, and microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi. They are used to manage agricultural pests and infections. The market for biopesticides in the Asia-Pacific region was valued at USD 854.2 million in 2022.
  • Biofungicides are the most popular biopesticides used in the region. They held a market share of 36.8% in 2022. Bacillus, Trichoderma, Streptomyces, and Pseudomonas are the most commercially used species of microorganisms in agriculture. These biofungicides effectively act against pathogens, such as Pythium, Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, Sclerotinia, Thielaviopsis, Botrytis, and powdery mildew.
  • Among bioinsecticides, the bacterial insecticide Bacillus thuringiensis is most predominantly used in agriculture due to its immense potential to control pests by producing proteins during the sporulation phase. Bacillus thuringiensis is effective in managing lepidopteran species that affect a wide range of crop types.  
  • Pseudomonas fluorescens and Xanthomonas campestris are fungi and bacteria, respectively, gaining commercial importance as bioherbicides in the region. The extracellular peptides and a lipopolysaccharide released from these organisms inhibit the growth of weeds. Xanthomonas campestris is known to control horseweed effectively.  
  • The need for sustainable approaches in managing biotic stresses in agriculture is the potential driver for biopesticide usage in the region.
Asia-Pacific Biopesticides Market
  • The Asia-Pacific region is witnessing a significant shift toward sustainable agriculture practices, with countries like China and India leading the market. China is currently the largest consumer of biopesticides in the region, and it accounted for a 29.1% share in 2022.
  • In response to rising concerns over soil contamination, pollution, and chemical residues in food, the Chinese government is taking proactive measures to promote the usage of organic inputs. These initiatives include bearing the cost of organic certification, providing funding for on-farm infrastructure and organic fertilizers, training, marketing assistance, and assisting with land acquisition. Middle and higher-income families are driving this growing demand for organically-grown food.
  • However, India has the world's highest number of organic growers, and it is the fifth-largest country in terms of organic agricultural land area. During 2021-2022, India produced over 3.4 million metric tons of certified organic products, including a wide range of food products. This high adoption of organic farming practices is expected to drive the biopesticides market in the region.
  • One key driver of the biopesticides market is the development of herbicide-resistant weeds such as L. rigidum, R. raphanustrum, Bromus spp., and Hordeum spp. These weeds have developed resistance against traditional chemical herbicides that kill the weeds by ACCase- and ALS-inhibition, making control difficult. This presents an opportunity for farmers to adopt other alternatives like bioherbicides, thus driving the Asia-Pacific biopesticides market. The market is estimated to record a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period (2023-2029).

Cash Crops​ Cash crops are non-consumable crops sold as a whole or part of the crop to manufacture end-products to make a profit.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM)​ IPM is an environment-friendly and sustainable approach to control pests in various crops. It involves a combination of methods, including biological controls, cultural practices, and selective use of pesticides.
Bacterial biocontrol agents​ Bacteria used to control pests and diseases in crops. They work by producing toxins harmful to the target pests or competing with them for nutrients and space in the growing environment. Some examples of commonly used bacterial biocontrol agents include Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), Pseudomonas fluorescens, and Streptomyces spp.​
Plant Protection Product (PPP)​ A plant protection product is a formulation applied to crops to protect from pests, such as weeds, diseases, or insects. They contain one or more active substances with other co-formulants such as solvents, carriers, inert material, wetting agents or adjuvants formulated to give optimum product efficacy.​
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.​
Phytosanitary Regulations​ Phytosanitary regulations imposed by the respective government bodies check or prohibit the importation and marketing of certain insects, plant species, or products of these plants to prevent the introduction or spread of new plant pests or pathogens.​
Ectomycorrhizae (ECM)​ Ectomycorrhiza (ECM) is a symbiotic interaction of fungi with the feeder roots of higher plants in which both the plant and the fungi benefit through the association for survival.​
