Market Overview:
The global agricultural biological control agents market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for organic food, rising awareness about the benefits of using biological control agents, and technological advancements in the field of agricultural biotechnology. The microbial pesticides segment is projected to be the fastest-growing type segment during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their ability to suppress or kill pests and diseases without causing any harm to humans, animals, or plants.
Product Definition:
Agricultural Biological Control Agents are living organisms that are used to control pests in agriculture. They can be viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites, and they work by attacking the pests or disrupting their life cycles. Agricultural Biological Control Agents can be naturally occurring or engineered for specific purposes. Their use is important because they can help reduce the amount of pesticides needed in agriculture, which can improve environmental quality and safety.
Microbial Pesticides:
Microbial pesticides are natural pesticides made by microbes. Microbial pesticides can be used to control pests in a similar way as synthetic pesticide but with less harmful effects on humans and the environment. Microbial pesticide products include bacteriophage (phage), bacteria, protozoon, and fungi among others. Bacteria is the most common type of microbial pesticide used for pest control in agricultural fields globally followed by fungi and other microorganisms such as protozoon and phages.
Biochemical Pesticides:
Biological pesticides are living organisms used to control or eradicate pests. They are mainly used in agricultural fields, but can also be used in homes and commercial buildings as they do not harm humans or pets. Some of the biological pesticides include bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites among others that act as pest controllers by damaging the pest's nervous system or internal organs thereby causing death.
Application Insights:
The other application segment covers the usage of biological control agents for weed, pest and disease management in horticulture, turf and agriculture. The use of biological control agents is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for agro-based products that provide sustainable solutions without the need for additional pesticides.
Fruits and vegetables accounted for a substantial share in 2015 due to extensive usage of crop protection chemicals globally. However, with rising awareness among farmers about soil health as well as plant health concerns during post-harvest handling & storage conditions; along with advancements in technology such as precision agriculture; there has been an increase in demand for naturally derived crop protection products that are environment friendly compared to conventional synthetic pesticides. This trend is expected continue over the forecast period thereby driving product demand worldwide.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Asia Pacific has been witnessing strong economic growth on account of increasing foreign investments, which has led to an increase in food demand. The region is also one of the most lucrative markets for agricultural biocontrol agents due to various factors including favorable weather conditions, availability of cheap labor, and high agricultural production.
The European market was valued at USD X million in 2017 owing to growing awareness among farmers about benefits offered by biological control agents over conventional pesticides such as less damage caused by pests and increased crop yield. Moreover, stringent regulations imposed on conventional pesticides have encouraged farmers toward adoption of these products resulting in a significant increase in their usage rates over the past few years; this factor is anticipated to bode well for regional growth during the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for organic food: The global market for organic food is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 14% from 2016 to 2021. This growth is driven by the increasing awareness about the benefits of organic food, such as its nutritional value, environmental sustainability, and health benefits.
- Rising demand for pest-free crops: The increasing population and their rising income levels are resulting in an increase in the demand for high-quality crops. This has led to an increase in the use of agricultural biological control agents as they help reduce crop losses caused by pests and diseases.
- Stringent regulations on chemical pesticides: There is a growing awareness among consumers about the harmful effects of chemical pesticides on human health and environment. As a result, there is a stringent regulatory framework governing their use worldwide. This is driving the demand for agricultural biological control agents as they are considered safe alternatives to chemical pesticides.
