Biopesticides

Biopesticides are certain types of pesticides derived from such natural materials as animals, plants, bacteria, and certain minerals. Biopesticide is comparatively safer strategy than the use of chemicals or chemical derived pesticides posing low risks to humans and the environment. The major advantage of the use of biopesticide for crop pest's management is environment safety along with their host specificity. Besides, the associated costs for the development and the registration of the biopesticide are comparatively lesser than that of the chemical pesticides. Besides, due to the continuous evolution of the resistance to chemicals and legislations being more restrictive, there is a need for intensive research on the biopesticide development both from the private and the public sectors.
