Baculoviruses are known to regulate many insect populations in nature. Their
host-specificity is very high, usually restricted to a single or a few closely
related insect species. They are amongst the safest pesticides, with no or
negligible effects on non-target organisms, including beneficial insects,
vertebrates and plants. Baculovirus-based pesticides are compatible with
integrated pest management strategies and the expansion of their application will
significantly reduce the risks associated with the use of synthetic chemical
insecticides. Several successful baculovirus-based pest control programs have
taken place in Latin American countries. Sustainable agriculture (a trend
promoted by state authorities in most Latin American countries) will benefit from
the wider use of registered viral pesticides and new viral products that are in
the process of registration and others in the applied research pipeline. The
success of baculovirus-based control programs depends upon collaborative efforts
among government and research institutions, growers associations, and private
companies, which realize the importance of using strategies that protect human
health and the environment at large. Initiatives to develop new regulations that
promote the use of this type of ecological alternatives tailored to different
local conditions and farming systems are underway.
