近年来，农业面临着相当大的压力，要求减少化学农药的使用，并寻找更好的替代品。植物界被认为是不同生物活性化合物的最有效生产者，这些化合物使它们能够抵抗不同的害虫。目前，一些高等植物产品已被配制成植物性农药，并作为生态友好和可生物降解的措施被大规模用于治理农业害虫。在农业病虫害管理中使用的植物药对使用者和环境更安全。由于消费者要求减少或消除食品中的化学合成添加剂的压力，人们对可能使用天然化合物来控制农业害虫的兴趣显著增加。植物性农药在不同农业有害生物的综合治理中有着广泛的应用。对天然产品的综合和持续的研究可能会产生更安全的替代控制措施，可与印楝素和拟除虫菊酯相媲美，它们在世界不同地区被用作理想的天然杀菌剂。高等植物产品安全、经济，应用方式多样，在全球农药市场上需求量很大。
In recent years there has been considerable pressure in agriculture to reduce chemical pesticides and to look for their better alternatives. The plant kingdom is recognized as the most efficient producer of different biologically active compounds, which provide them with resistance against different pests. Some higher plant products have been currently formulated as botanical pesticides and are used on a large scale as eco-friendly and biodegradable measures in managing agricultural pests. Botanicals used in agricultural pest management are safer to the user and the environment. The interest in the possible use of natural compounds to control agricultural pests has notably increased in response to consumer pressure to reduce or eliminate chemically synthesized additives in foods. There is a wide scope of use of plant-based pesticides in the integrated management of different agricultural pests. A consolidated and continuous search of natural products may yield safer alternative control measures comparable to azadirachtin and pyrethryoids, which are being used in different part of the world as ideal natural fungicides. The products from higher plants are safe and economical and would be in high demand in the global pesticide market because of their diverse mode of application.
