As per China’s National Bureau of Statistics, domestic grain production in the country reached 706.5 billion tonnes in 2024, thereby recording a year-on-year growth of 1.6%. This can be attributed to the growing use of pest-resistant seeds, improvements in planting methods, and rapid mechanisation of agricultural practices. During 2021-2024, soybean and corn yields surged by 2.54% and 4.87%, respectively. This is expected to drive the insecticide market value over the forecast period.
One of the key market trends has been the shift towards biopesticides. During 2019-2022, nearly 38 new biopesticides (including 24 microbial pesticides, 12 biochemical pesticides, and 2 botanical pesticides) actives were introduced in China. As per The Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals (a government agency), 53 new novel active ingredients were introduced in China during this time. This has accelerated the insecticide market development.
As per government reports, India’s agricultural industry has grown by 5% annually from FY17 to FY23. In 2025, the product of kharif food crops (such as cotton, sugarcane, and rice, among others) is expected to grow by 89.37 Lakh Metric Tons (LMT) and reach 1647.05 LMT. This is expected to increase the demand for advanced agrochemicals and insecticides that can contribute to higher crop yields, thereby leading to the market growth.
Growing adoption of insecticide-treated seeds; the emergence of biopesticides; increasing adoption of smart insecticides and precision agriculture; and rising use of nanotechnology in insecticide formulation are the major factors driving the insecticide market growth.
Farmers are increasingly using insecticide-treated seeds to protect crops from pests during early growth stages. These seeds enhance yield potential while reducing the need for foliar applications. With rising concerns over pesticide overuse, this trend is expected to support sustainable farming and improve overall agricultural productivity globally.
Biopesticides are derived from plant extracts, fungi, bacteria, and other natural substances, which specifically target harmful pest populations without impacting butterflies and bees. They are gaining market traction as an environmentally friendly substitute for chemical insecticides. The increasing consumer demand for organically farmed agricultural commodities has emerged as one of the key insecticide market trends.
Technological advancements in the agriculture industry have facilitated the development of smart insecticides, which rely on AI drones and IoT sensors to target dangerous pest populations with a high degree of effectiveness. This results in lower environmental impact on farming and improved crop yields. This also facilitates significant cost reduction for farmers, thereby improving their revenue.
Nanotechnology is revolutionising insecticide applications by facilitating the development of nano-sized particles that can improve the effectiveness and absorption of active ingredients. These formulations can also boost pest control efficiency while reducing the release of chemicals into the environment.
VERDAVIS® is an acaricide insecticide derived from two actives, Lambda Cialothrin and PLINAZOLIN®, and is an extremely effective option for insect control on off-season crops. It enjoys considerable longevity due to its extreme tolerance to rainfall and degradation by UV rays. Apart from delivering the knock-down effect on pests, it immediately paralyses them, thereby ensuring advanced crop protection. The introduction of such innovative agrochemicals is expected to lead to the growth of insecticide market revenue. Furthermore, SPONTA®, an advanced insecticide formulation designed to protect cotton farms from bee-e-eaten, and small thrips and mites are also expected to witness widespread adoption, driven by increasing cultivation of cotton.
