In this article, Agro Minds, a data intelligence startup, explains how Brazil has become a global reference in bioinputs, the advantages of this technology, and the challenges for its consolidation.

Agro Minds classifies bioinputs as "products of biological origin used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve soil fertility, protect against pests and diseases, and reduce dependence on synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides." They include:

Biodefensives: Biological agents such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses are used to control pests and diseases. Products for pest and disease control include semiochemicals, biochemicals, phytochemicals, metabolites, organic macromolecules, and biological control agents.
