Implementing Biological Control Agents in the ASEAN Region
In this section, information retrieved from the Project’s database on biocontrol agents (BCA)
registered in ASEAN Member States is presented. For ease of use within the limited space of this
document, the information is limited to lists of pests and diseases and the corresponding active
ingredients/agents for control from eight AMS (no trade names are included). For Indonesia,
Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, these lists contain all registered BCA as
of October 2013, while in the case of Cambodia and Lao PDR, the data were updated in April 2014.
Abamectin and related compounds are largely excluded; they are only mentioned when contained in
product mixes. This exclusion is related to the circumstance that these compounds are not
categorised as BCA in some AMS; see also the introductory part of Chapter 2 for further explanation.
Note that the categorisation of BCA in the following lists largely follows “The Manual of Biocontrol
Agents” (12). The category ‘natural products’ usually includes products derived from plants, but
‘botanicals’ are listed here as a separate group just to make numbers better visible.

Appendix I Products
Against which pest and diseases are BCA used (registered) in ASEAN? General target
profile of the active agents/ingredients from six AMS:
Diamondback moth, red spider mite,
thrips, brown plant hopper, bollworm,
and aphids attract most of the products
(here: products include abamectin).
