Beneficial Insects Market Valued at USD 1,183.12 Million in 2026, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.86% (2026-2034)

The global beneficial insects industry report covers key companies such as Koppert Biological Systems, Biobest Group NV, Applied Bio-nomics Ltd., and Others.

PUNE, MAHARASHTRA, INDIA, February 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global beneficial insects market size was valued at USD 1,051.90 million in 2025. The market is projected to grow from USD 1,183.12 million in 2026 to USD 3,114.09 million by 2034, exhibiting a CAGR of 12.86% during the forecast period.

The increasing adoption of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs is significantly boosting demand for beneficial insects such as predatory mites, parasitic wasps, and lady beetles. These biological control agents play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance, reducing chemical residues in food products, and providing effective, natural pest suppression. Their ability to target specific pests while minimizing harm to crops and the environment makes them an integral component of modern sustainable farming systems.

Furthermore, rising environmental awareness, deteriorating soil health, and the global shift toward residue-free and sustainable agricultural practices have accelerated the adoption of biological pest management solutions. Supportive government initiatives, subsidies encouraging the use of biological inputs, and increasingly stringent regulations on synthetic pesticides are reshaping the global market landscape, collectively driving strong and sustained market growth.
