Adoption Of Organic Pest Management To Reinforce The Demand For Biological Crop Protection

The global biological crop protection market is expected to grow during the forecast period (2019-2026) owing to high demand for eco-friendly agricultural treatment products. Government of numerous regions are executing rules to accept eco-friendly products for agriculture. Government agencies are also fetching in promotional activities to encourage the same. The increase in trend for organic food is also significant to the increase of global biological crop protection market. The increase in awareness concerning the ill effects of chemically grown agriculture among urban consumers is one of the key features for the rise in demand of the market. As per EPA biopesticides When used as a component of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, can significantly decrease the usage of conventional pesticides. Moreover, in Europe the recent ban (2018) on neonicotinoid pesticides has been a prominent example of the changes in environment and agriculture regulations. In addition, the EPA generally requires less data to register a biopesticide as compared to register a chemical pesticide. Consequently, novel biopesticides are often registered in less than a year, compared to an average of over three years for chemical pesticides.

Further, as per European Federation of Managerial Staff in the Chemical and Allied Industries (FECCIA), in around 600-odd chemical-based crop protection active ingredients there are around 300 biopesticide active substances and organisms are there. In addition, in terms of patent activity, in 2017 there were increased number of patents for biological pesticides as compare to conventional crop protection products that is around 173 compared with 117. The shift to sustainable methods to improve the crop yield across the globe is leading to the growth of global biological crop protection market. Preference of environment friendly pest management technique over the conventional method is likewise another factor for the rise in demand. Biopesticide delivers a variety of services for instance sustainable protection of crops, increased efficacy of action, and targeted activity on pest population. Consequently, adoption of biopesticide for crop protection is growing in demand.

Growing demand for organic products strengthen the biological crop protection market

The development of organic products market across the globe has generated awareness primarily in consumers of developed economies about their benefits over synthetic. Further, the production of organic products in India during 2017-2018 is estimated to be around 1.7 Million MT as per Agricultural & Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (India). Further, as per Research Institute of Organic Agriculture, around 50.9 million hectares of agriculture land was growth of crops organically in 2015, that is 6.5 million hectares mare than in 2014. This shift in trend towards adoption of organic farming has led to the growth of global biopesticides or biological crop protection market.
