Biorational Pesticides Market

Top Biorational Pesticides Companies: BASF SE (Germany), FMC Corporation (US) and Novozymes A/S (Denmark)

The biorational pesticides market is projected to grow from USD 7.5 billion in 2023 to USD 15.1 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 15.2% during the forecast period. Increased recognition of the negative effects caused by synthetic chemical pesticides on ecosystems, biodiversity, and human health has led to a movement toward eco-friendly alternatives. Regulatory authorities are progressively advocating for biorational pesticides because of their reduced toxicity and lower environmental persistence in comparison to synthetic chemicals, thereby propelling the growth of the market.

For instance, as per the Ministry of Agriculture of Rural Affairs (MARA) website's 2021 data, China approved a total of 26 new active ingredients. Among these, 5 active ingredients were exclusively for export, while the majority of 21 new active ingredients were intended for domestic use and fell under the category of biopesticides. This trend might be attributed to the stringent criteria and comprehensive data prerequisites for registering new chemical pesticides. Numerous submissions for registration failed due to the necessity of providing toxicological information on metabolites, resulting in rejections. Conversely, the registration prerequisites for biopesticides involve comparatively lower data demands, leading to reduced uncertainties and a higher likelihood of obtaining registrations at an earlier stage.
