Abstrakt: | Bioherbicides might be used to manage weeds as opposed to synthetic chemical herbicides, reducing environmental risks and advancing sustainable agriculture in the meantime. Bioherbicides employ different mechanisms of action to control weeds. Microbial bioherbicides may infect and damage weed plants, disrupt their growth, or produce compounds inhibiting weed development. Plant-derived bioherbicides often target specific biochemical processes crucial for weed survival. It can be applied through conventional spraying equipment, seed treatments, or soil incorporation. Bioherbicide development faces several challenges. One major hurdle is the complex diversity of weed species across different regions, requiring tailored bioherbicide solutions. The regulatory approvals for bioherbicides can be lengthy and costly, hindering widespread adoption. Scaling up production processes and ensuring product stability also pose challenges. By reducing reliance on chemical herbicides, bioherbicides can mitigate environmental pollution, protect non-target organisms, and promote sustainable agricultural practices. The development of locally adapted bioherbicides and strategic collaborations between researchers, industries, and policymakers could further enhance their prospects in a particular country. In addition, the knowledge gaps need to be addressed prior to adopting bioherbicides in agriculture. These review intended to explore the existing state of knowledge about the categories of bioherbicides, their formulation procedure, application approaches and mode of action to control weed. The bioherbicides that are currently on the market, their effects on weed physiology, and possible factors affecting their efficacy are all included in this review. Moreover, this review offers a perspective on existing challenges and future opportunities for adopting the bioherbicides in sustainable and eco-friendly agriculture.
