Latin America Biopesticide Market Outlook
The Latin America Biopesticide Market size was valued at USD 487.69 Million in 2022 and is expected to surpass USD 1.40 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 12.5% during the forecast period, 2023 – 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to rapid development in food industry, increasing demand for high yield crops, increased concern about environment, and increasing environmental regulations.
Bio pesticides are specific types of pesticides obtained from natural materials like certain minerals, bacteria, plants, and animals. Baking soda and canola oil have pesticidal uses and are considered as bio pesticides.
Bio pesticides contain naturally obtained substances that control pests (biochemical pesticides), pesticidal substances produced by plants, and microorganisms also control pests (microbial pesticides).
The covid-19 pandemic affected the demand and supply of the Latin America bio pesticides market. Lockdown across the globe, supply chain disorders, and oscillating supply of raw materials forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to unfortunate decline in market growth.
Launch of vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.

Bio Pesticide Market Segment Insights
The bio fungicides segment is projected to hold a large market share
On the basis of product, the Latin America bio pesticide market is divided into bio herbicides, bio insecticides, bio fungicides, and other. The bio fungicides segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period.
Rising fungal resistance to various conventional fungicides is projected to increase demand for more effective alternatives, such as bio fungicides. Furthermore, the regulatory prohibition or restriction on the use of certain active substances in the manufacturing of chemical agri-inputs is projected to boost the market.
The liquid formulation segment accounts for a key share of the market
Based on formulation, the Latin America bio pesticides market is bifurcated into liquid and dry. The liquid formulation segment accounts for a key share of the market. Growth of the market is attributed to increasing adaptation of organic farming methods and increasing crop production.
However, the dry formulation segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to factors such as rapid expansion of organic food industry and increasing demand for bio pesticides.
The biochemical segment accounts for a significant share of the market
In terms of ingredient, the Latin America Biopesticide market is segregated into microbial pesticide, plant bio pesticide, and biochemical pesticide. The biochemical pesticides accounts for a significant share of the market. Growth of the market is attributed to increasing area under organic cultivation.
The plant pesticides segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to factors such as increasing consumption of organic food. Italy is now enacting legislation with the goal of reducing agriculture's reliance on pesticides while improving consumer and environmental safety.
The fruits & vegetable segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace
On the basis of application, the Latin America bio pesticide market is segmented into grains & cereals, pulses & oilseeds, fruits & vegetables, commercial crops, turf, and ornamentals. The fruits & vegetable segment is projected to hold major market share during forecast period.
The metropolitan population has increased steadily over the past few years, resulting in a significant demand for fresh fruits and vegetables. The appearance of fruit often leads to assumptions about its quality. Any insect present reduces the market value of the crop.
