    The world's population is rapidly increasing, putting a colossal strain on the world's food supply. Pesticides are one of the most frequent strategies for increasing food production, but their continued usage has some pessimistic consequences for the environment. Over the last two decades, there has been a surge in interest in biopesticides as a prospective replacement. A bibliometric study was conducted from 2002 to 2021 to identify the scientific evolution of biopesticides. In the dimension database, a total of 5680 documents were identified as suitable for this analysis. The documents were analyzed, and nations were ranked based on authors, productivity, article citations, and co-authorship using parameters such as the number of papers, article citations, keywords, source impact, and country of publication. From 2002 to 2021, Pest Management Science and the Journal of Economic Entomology produced the most articles as well as the top contributions in biopesticide publishing by authors Benelli (first) and Tyagi (second). In 2006, Halkier received the highest degree of citation, while Berg received the highest level of citation in 2009. The University of Queensland and the University of Florida were the top two institutes that contributed to the publication of biopesticides
