EPA defines biopesticide as certain types of pesticides, derived from such natural materials as animals, plants, bacteria, and certain minerals. The study takes into consideration both microbial as well as organic pesticides. The Latin America biopesticide market is segmented by product, formulation, ingredient type, mode of application, crops of application, and geography. By product biopesticides are sub segmented into bioherbicide, bioinsecticide, biofungicide, others. By ingredient type market was sub segmented into microbial pesticides, plant extracts, bio-derived compounds and the sub segments of crops of application are grains & cereals, oilseeds & pulses, fruits & vegetables, commercial crops, turf & ornamental grass.

The Major Market Share Sub Segment - Bioinsecticides
The Latin America market for bioinsecticides was valued at USD 196.5 million in 2017. Bioinsecticides hold around half of the market share. Over 6,000 plant species have been identified, which possess insecticidal properties. In insect pest management, a number of plant products derived from neem, custard apple, tobacco, pyrethrum, etc., have been used as safe insecticides. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is the most explored and commercially successful microbial insecticide.

Growing Demand for Food Safety and Quality
Consumers have become more aware of products they consume and scrutinize the safety and quality of food products. Being less harmful than synthetic pesticides, biopesticides typically affect only the target pest and other organisms closely related to it, as against broad-spectrum conventional pesticides, which can be harmful to other organisms, such as birds, insects, and mammals. Biopesticides has capability to rapidly decompose without leaving any noxious residues and are less detrimental to humans, animals, and the environment. So, when farmers use biopesticide in agricultural land, it lessens the chance of toxicity that comes indirectly from synthetic pesticide usages. Recent changes to legislations in Latin American countries, have paved the path for the development and greater adoption of biopesticide over synthetic pesticide.

Low Shelf Life
Storage of biopesticides requires special facilities, along with skills, which most producers, shopkeepers, and farmers do not possess, especially in the developing parts of the world. Since biopesticides often contain living material, the products have reduced shelf lives. Also, their efficacy is often variable, due to the influence of various biotic and abiotic factors. Shelf life is the end result of several factors, like production technology, carrier and packaging material used, and the mode and distance of transport.
