Biopesticide
Biopesticides, a contraction of 'biological pesticides', include several types of pest management intervention: through predatory, parasitic, or chemical relationships. The term has been associated historically with biological control - and by implication - the manipulation of living organisms. Regulatory positions can be influenced by public perceptions, thus: ⁕in the EU, biopesticides have been defined as "a form of pesticide based on micro-organisms or natural products". ⁕the US EPA states that they "include naturally occurring substances that control pests, microorganisms that control pests, and pesticidal substances produced by plants containing added genetic material or PIPs". They are typically created by growing and concentrating naturally occurring organisms and/or their metabolites including bacteria and other microbes, fungi, nematodes, proteins, etc. They are often considered to be important components of integrated pest management programmes, and have received much practical attention as substitutes to synthetic chemical plant protection products. The Manual of Biocontrol Agents gives a review of the available biological insecticide products.
