Brazil Biocontrol Agents Market Trends

Macrobials is the largest Form

• The Brazilian biocontrol agents market was valued at USD 91.6 million in 2022. It accounted for 14.0% of the total South American biocontrol agents market in the same year.
• Macrobial biocontrol agents dominate the Brazilian biocontrol agents market, which was projected to be worth USD 91.6 billion in 2022. The dominance of macrobial biocontrol agents is mostly from their capacity to control a wide range of pests.
• Predators dominate the macrobial biocontrol agents market. Their dominance in the overall biocontrol agents market is mostly due to their capacity to attack multiple life stages of pests and even different pest species. They are voracious eaters compared to other biocontrol agents. In 2022, predators accounted for about 97.4% of the macrobial biocontrol agents market.
• In 2022, microbial biocontrol agents accounted for less than 1% of the total biocontrol agents market in Brazil. Microbial biocontrol agents have a limited market share due to their complicated mechanism of action and low knowledge among Brazilian farmers. However, because of their capacity to manage a wide range of pests and illnesses, these agents have the potential to grow their market share.
• Fungal biocontrol agents lead the microbial biocontrol market. Fungal biocontrol agents are mostly dominant owing to their capacity to penetrate various types of insects through their cuticles. They are also effective against targeted pests while causing no harm to the environment.
• The market for biocontrol agents is expected to register a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period as farmers search for alternatives to chemical pesticides due to pests becoming resistant to chemical insecticides and integrated pest management programs promote the use of biocontrol agents.
