TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Biopesticides market: Bayer CropScience, Becker Underwood Inc., Novozymes BioAg Ltd., and Valent BioSciences Co.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Biopesticides market is the increasing grower-consultant collaboration. For the effective use of biopesticide on crops, the user needs to have an understanding of the procedure for correct and safe application. A lack of such knowledge has deterred farmers from adopting biopesticides. Use of chemical pesticides, on the other hand, is perceived as reliable and convenient. As a solution to this problem, several agrochemical companies, which produce biopesticides, have introduced field training programs for farmers and are encouraging consultant-farmer interactions. In addition, governments of many countries are increasingly conducting farmer training and counseling through biopesticide specialists.”
According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the lower R&D costs and availability of new products at competitive prices. The R&D costs for biopesticides is relatively much lesser than that of chemical pesticides. This has led to a host of new biopesticide products being introduced in the market.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the barriers to biopesticide commercialization. Many countries such as the US and the UK encourage biopesticide registration, but the registration process in most countries acts as a barrier to commercialization for companies.
