Marketing Bioherbicides
Bioherbicides are primarily used to biologically control the weeds through various steps which range from selecting the microbes and formulating them into marketable Bioherbicide. With increasing awareness of the effects of the chemical herbicides and pesticides, Bioherbicides can be adopted as an alternative especially for integrated weed management. However, despite the scope, the market share of Bioherbicides is merely 10% of all Biopesticides. On the other hand, the research spanning over two decades since 1980s has also falsified the principle that there is a coevolved natural enemy  of a host weed which can manage weed through varied formulation  and thus advocated for more research to culturally and genetically intensify the Bioherbicidal organisms.

Production
The production of Bioherbicides is a process of biosynthesis where different mediums ranging from soybean bran to corn steep liquor are fermented to obtain desirable results. Despite the ‘eco-friendliness’, there are several obstructions that make it less practical to use bioherbicides in fields because the lab results may not be the same as the real results.

Future of Bioherbicides
While it is true that after their ‘discovery’ the bioherbicides are not vastly available in the market for various reasons, the advocates of bioherbicides argue that bioherbicides-researchers should collaborate with other researchers and seek more funding for public sector so that the bioherbicides can become more marketable and attain more market share. Simultaneously, research from Canada reinforces that legislative and policy dynamics have great power to accelerate the innovation and integration of bioherbicides other microbial pest-control products.
