Insect growth regulators (IGRs) are compounds that interfere with the growth, development, and metamorphosis of insects. They include synthetic analogs of insect hormones, such as ecdysoids and juvenoids, and non-hormonal compounds like precocenes (Anti JH) and chitin synthesis inhibitors. They mimic the hormones present inside the body of the insect and prevent reproduction, egg-hatching and molting among different insects, including fleas, cockroaches, and mosquitoes. As IGRs are economical, bio-degradable, non-persistent, non-polluting, and non-toxic to humans, animals and plants, their demand is escalating around the world.
With the growing population, reducing arable land and the surging demand for food, farmers are increasing the utilization of pesticides to improve the crop yield. This has resulted in the contamination of soil and groundwater. Additionally, the resistance developed by pests against the repetitive utilization of synthetic pesticides, along with the growing awareness about the negative impact of pesticides on arable land and human health, is positively influencing sales of IGRs across the globe. Moreover, there is a rise in the adoption of environment-friendly crop production products, which is boosting the sales of IGRs as they are highly convenient for being utilized on crops, such as cotton, wheat, tomatoes, and corn. Besides this, due to their high efficiency, there is a considerable increase in the application of IGRs across agriculture, residential and commercial sectors. This, in confluence with the growing adoption of organic farming methods worldwide, is also contributing to the growth of the market. Other factors, such as rising environmental concerns, coupled with increasing awareness about professional pest control services, are anticipated to propel the growth of the market.
