A miticide is a chemical insecticide that mainly targets mites (e.g., spider mites) that harbor fruits and vegetables, cereals and grains, oilseeds and pulses, turf and landscape, ornamental flowers, and forage and plantation crops. Miticides are packed in the form of spray concentrates and have powerful active ingredients, resulting in a quick knockdown and fast kill. However, the development of miticide resistance in mites is a major issue in the agriculture field. Repeated pesticide uses result in microevolution due to the selection pressure, ultimately leading to resistance development. Thus, manufacturers have shifted their focus on offering miticides made of chemicals such as omite and palictran, which give better results without harming the predatory fauna of mite pests. Moreover, they offer effective products that can kill mites in all stages of their lifecycle. BASF SE and Sym-Agro, among others, offer organic miticides that also act as fungicides. These miticides help to control adelgids, aphids, fungus gnats, lace bugs, leafminers, leafhoppers, mealybugs, mites, scale, thrips, whiteflies, webworms, and powdery mildew on ornamentals. Such innovative multipurpose products are becoming popular among farmers as they lower the cost of production. Many countries are encouraging the development of pesticides for agricultural use. For instance. Thus, the development of novel products, coupled with favorable government initiatives, is offering future growth opportunities for the South & Central America miticides market players.
