BIOPESTICIDES
• Shortened from the term 'biological pesticides'
• Associated historically with biological control and, by implication, the manipulationof living organisms
• In the EU ‘biopesticides’ have been defined as "a form of pesticide based onmicro-organisms or natural products"
• Created by growing & concentrating naturally occurring organisms and/or their metabolitesincluding bacteria and other microbes, fungi, nematodes, proteins, etc.
• Important components of IPM programmes
• Have received much practical attention as substitutes to synthetic chemical plantprotection products (PPPs)

BIOPESTICIDES
Biopesticides can be:
• Microbial - consisting of bacteria, entomopathogenic fungi or viruses and sometimes includes the
metabolites that bacteria or fungi produce.
• Biochemical or Herbal - consisting of naturally occurring substances that control – or monitor
in the case of pheromones - pests and microbial diseases.
• Plant-Incorporated Protectants (PIPs) have genetic material from other species incorporated into
their genetic material (i.e. GM crops). Their use is controversial, especially in many European countries.
Examples:
Beneficial Bacterial
• Bacillus thuringiensis - a bacterium that parasitizes Butterflies & Moths, Beetles and Flies.• Bacillus amyloliquifaciens - a bacterium that parasitizes various important plant diseases
e.g. Pluton.• Bacillus subtilis - a bacterium that parasitizes various important plant diseases. e.g. Serenade ASO

BIOPESTICIDESExamples:
Entomopathogenic Fungal
• Coniothyrium minitans - a naturally occurring parasite of Sclerotinia spp. e.g. Contans WG.• Beauveria bassiana - acts as a parasite on various arthropod species. E.g. Naturalis L. 25-28C• Lecanicillium spp. - acts as a parasite on various crop pests. (Whitefly/aphids)• Metarhizium spp. - acts as a parasite on various arthropod species. Met52 temp dependent• Trichoderma spp. - acts against various fungal diseases of plants. Temp 14C E.G T34• Ampelomyces quisqualis - a Myco-parasite of powdery mildews – Cucurbits/apples ,Strawb- AQ10
Entomopathogenic Viruses
• Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) - is a highly pathogenic virus of invertebrates – specificallyCodling moth e.g. Carpovirusine
Beneficial Nematodes
• Steinernema feltiae - Attacking insect pests e.g. Nemasys.- Leatherjacket/Thrips/• Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita - Attacking slugs e.g. Nemaslug. T 5-30C

BIOPESTICIDES
Various naturally occurring materials, including fungal and plant extracts, have been described as biopesticides.
Products in this category include:
• Insect Pheromones and other Semiochemicals.• Fermentation products e.g. Spinosad (a macro-cyclic lactone).• Chitosan, a plant in the presence of this product will naturally Induce Systemic Resistance (ISR) to allowthe plant to defend itself against disease, pathogens and pests.• Natural Plant-Derived Products, which include Alkaloids, Terpenoids, Phenolics and Other SecondaryChemicals.• Certain Vegetable Oils such as Oilseed Rape Oil are known to have pesticidal properties.• Products based on Extracts of plants such as Garlic have now been registered in the EU and elsewhere.
Applications
Biopesticides are typically applied in a manner similar to chemical pesticides. In order to implementthese effectively, it can be important to pay attention to the way they are formulated, stored, mixedand applied.

Experience of DSS
Used for last ten years + Onion Downy Mildew, White tip leeks, Rust in leeks, Carrot sclerotinia.
Key BenefitsOptimising spray programmes – when to apply first spray.Comparison with actual disease in field.Justification for crop assurance
Key Points to rememberBased on Model – wont indicate risk in every part of the field.No replacement for field agronomy – back up.Not a residue reduction guarantee.Don’t always judge efficacy correct – other factors involved e.g. hardness water, application, addition of adjuvants.Need to be cost effective.
But overall useful guide and backup to field observations and part of an IPM Approach.

TRAPPING
Physically trapping pest – e.g. carrot fly/thrips sticky traps, water traps
Disadvantages
Very fiddly ,time consuming, have to check regular in field and wont give dailylevels.

Advanced Trapping
Device takes picture of sticky plate dailysends via GPRS to central server, thenstored and processed, results viewed onweb or mobile app. All solar powered.

Advanced Trapping
Photographs are taken daily, with daily moth levels identified and recorded to aid timing of sprays.Give real-time insight into pest situation in area, with use of multi traps.

Summary
If we are going to lose more conventional pesticides then biopesticides may become more important, and we willhave to change the way we use these products in relation to current practices.Improved trapping more accurate prediction systems, and maybe even accepting poorer control of pests/diseasesin the short term, but with more accurate real-time confirmations e.g. spore trapping, pest trapping.
