[187 Pages Report] The Biological Control Market size was estimated at USD 7.61 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 8.67 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 14.37% to reach USD 19.49 billion by 2030.

The biocontrols help manage pests and diseases in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and other industries using natural organisms and substances. These products offer a sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides by targeting specific pests and pathogens without harming beneficial organisms and the environment. Increasing demand for organic food products and stricter pesticide use regulations are elevating biocontrol usage. Rising awareness about environmental conservation and the need for effective pest management solutions that reduce chemical residues is expanding the scope of biocontrollers. Additionally, growing resistance among pests to conventional chemical pesticides has increased interest in adopting biocontrol measures. The high cost of production of biocontrols and the lack of standardized guidelines across different regions regarding the registration process for new biological control agents hamper market growth. Rising product innovations in microbial control agents and semiochemicals, such as pheromones for insect control, are expected to create opportunities for market growth.

Regional Insights

The biocontrol market in the Americas is highly developing, with a strong focus on sustainable agriculture practices and regulatory support from institutions including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The countries in the Asia-Pacific, including China, India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Japan, and others, have soaring demand for agriculture and food products due to the high population and contain a large percentage of land suitable for agriculture. The existence of a high percentage of agricultural land in Asia-Pacific creates considerable need for biocontrols. The European Union (EU) has been at the forefront of adopting environmentally friendly agricultural techniques. The EU’s emphasis on reducing chemical pesticide use drives the need for biocontrol products. Several governments have initiated programs to advance sustainable agriculture with increasing concerns over food security and water scarcity in arid regions across the Middle East & Africa (MEA). In particular, initiatives such as Egypt’s Agricultural Reform Project have helped propel interest in developing effective biological controls that minimize ecological impact while ensuring food safety.
