Global Markets and International Strategies of Biological Pesticide, 2014
Biopesticides are pesticdide derived from natural materials such as animals, plants, bacteria, and certain minerals. Microorganism such as a bacterium, virus, fungus, or microscopic nematode worms can be used in agricultural practices to control of elimate pests that can inflict damage to a plant. Agents used as biopesticides include parasites, predators, fungi, bacteria and viruses. They are being recommended and used as components of IPM programs in the production of high-value specialty crops such as fruit, nut, vegetable, vine, ornamental, and turf crops. The global pesticide market is growing at a 15.8% for the period of 2012 to 2017. Synthetic insecticide use is projected to continue to decline, particularly with the increased use of GM seeds. GM crops are competiong with biopesticides due to disease and pest resistance and complementing for production of chemical residue free crops. Biopesticedes represent a strong growth area in the global pesticide market. Low registration cost and time for development of new active ingredient are major growth drives for the biopesticides market. Bacterial biopesticides control over 70% of microbial biopesticdes market share. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is the most popular bioinsecticide worldwide. The global market for botanical biopesticide is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 14% and semio-chemicals is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.1% from 2012 to 2017. The global microbial biopesticides market was valued at $862 million in 2011 and is expected to reach $2,606 million by 2017. Global biopesticides market is dominated by bioinsecticides with around 46% share in 2011.
