The term “biorational” is used to describe those pesticides that are efficacious against target pests but are less detrimental to natural enemies. The term is sometimes also used to describe only those products derived from natural sources such as plant extracts and insect pathogens. However, this report defines a biorational pesticide as “any type of insecticide active against pest populations, but relatively innocuous to non-target organisms and therefore, non-disruptive to biological control.”

The biorational pesticides market is estimated at USD 2.78 Billion in 2017 projected to reach a value of USD 5.02 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2017. The market is driven by factors such as evolving farming technologies & practices, consumer demand for organic fruits & vegetables, and increasing promotion by government organizations for the adoption of environment-friendly pesticides. As demand for organic fruits, vegetables, and crops is increasing globally, the market for biorational pesticides is expected to grow.
