Bacillus thuringiensis European Market

In this case study, a global biopesticides company engaged CPL Business Consultants to analyse the European market for Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and other biopesticides. CPL’s comprehensive, insightful and fact-based report enabled the client to make well-informed business decisions as part of its overall growth strategy. 

Our report covered  16 major European markets and seven crop sectors for Bt, 7 target species for pheromones and 5 target groups for entomopathogenic nematodes.  Additionally, CPL reviewed prospects for biofungicides in the European market. A basic outline of the report can be found below. Please note that this outline is redacted and does not fully reflect the comprehensive nature and full contents of CPL’s report.
