Market Overview

Biopesticides are natural and non-poisonous pest control agents obtained from microorganisms, plants, and biochemicals, and are liable to change the scenario of agriculture by taking their place automatically among field crops, horticulture, and turf management, controlling the organisms, and at the same time keeping the protection of soil and the meeting of EPA and USDA organic standards. to manage agricultural pests, diseases, and weeds without causing any significant harm to human beings, non-target organisms, and the ecosystem.

Regulatory authorities like the U.S. EPA and the PMRA in Canada back the growth of the biopesticide market by simplifying the approval processes and introducing regulations that favor the use of biopesticides. In 2024, Biobest, the world's leading company in biological control and pollination, revealed its completion of the purchase of BioWorks, Inc., a Victor, NY-based producer and seller of the most prominent biopesticides in the industry.

BASF SE brought the Texas purchase into the fold to introduce pioneering bionematicides thus gaining control over 30% of the corn protection contracts with 88% eco-friendly ratings and collaborations for precise spraying in Midwest states. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s market report of December 2023 stated that the biopesticides used in the country had a 34% year-on-year increase, with British Columbia and Ontario being the top users. The provision of chemical pesticides has been made possible through the government's various incentive programs and consequently, the farmers have moved to biological alternatives.

Driving Factors

The biopesticides market in North America is driven by the increased demand for organic crop protection solutions, the implementation of integrated pest management (IPM) practices, and the development of new microbial fermentation technologies. In 2024, US crop protection sales surpassed USD 15 billion, which made more than 500 million acres of farmland treated annually and brought biopesticides closer to being a part of the whole farming system for better and more sustainable yield results. Environmental regulations were the main contributors to the USD 300 billion in green agriculture investments by 2025, and the primary focus was on microbial agents that would be certified by the EPA as biopesticides and would also meet the farmers’ needs for low-toxicity options.

Restraining Factors

The biopesticides market in North America is restrained by the regulatory framework that usually necessitates comprehensive testing and approval certification for biopesticide products has prevented the North American biopesticides market from growing. This is due to its delayed market entry and raises the costs for manufacturers as well.

Market Segmentation

The North America biopesticides market share is categorised into form and crop type.

• The biofungicides segment accounted for the largest revenue market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. 

The North America biopesticides market is segmented by form into biofungicides, bioherbicides, and bioinsecticides. Among these, the biofungicides segment accounted for the largest revenue market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Biofungicides accounted for 46.0% of the biopesticides segment due to their ability to control soil and foliar pathogens, which usually threaten high-value crops in 2024. They are derived from natural organisms or their by-products, and the fungal pathogens are managed in a manner that neither harms the beneficial microbes nor the plants. The rise is attributed to the growing consumer preference for organic products, stricter regulations for residue-free produce, and the necessity to reduce the use of chemical fungicides.

• The row crops segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.  

Based on crop type, the North America biopesticides market is segmented into cash crops, horticultural crops, and row crops. Among these, the row crops segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2024, row crops were responsible for the uptake of 92.6% of the total biopesticide volumes. Due to the extensive areas planted with corn, soybeans, and cotton in the Midwest and Southern Plains, which are the primary locations for these crops. The large-scale adoption of seed-treatment application methods also contributed to the high volume of biopesticides used in such crops.
