Abstract
In the context of India's agricultural landscape, where synthetic chemical pesticides have played a significant role, this exploration underscores the pressing need for sustainable alternatives. Biopesticides, sourced from natural materials, emerge as pivotal tools in eco-friendly pest management. The diverse types of biopesticides, their current utilization in India, and the potential for expanded adoption are discussed. Despite constituting a mere 3% of total pesticides, the intrinsic qualities of biopesticides, exemplified by Neem-based products, present a promising avenue for sustainable pest control. The significance of India's biodiversity and traditional knowledge is highlighted, suggesting their potential in shaping innovative biopesticides. With a growing emphasis on organic farming, there is a foreseeable shift towards increased acceptance and integration of biopesticides in Indian agriculture.
