The best place to farm these kills is at :
Crescent Nebula to the Zelene system and then scan the planet on the 2nd ring (Helyme) from the middle for hidden mission.

Once on this mission you will need to have miranda in your squad (or anyone who has the warp ability).

You should encounter at least 1, if not 2 barriers you can remove before getting to the computer to hack it. Once you hack it, set you squad to take cover towards the back of the platform the computer is on and then you will have 3 sets of enemies come out. There should be at least 3 vanguards you can warp the barriers on.

Once the computer is done hacking (don't go back to check the computer or the mission will end) and all the enemies are dead, just reload your autosave (you don't need to restart the mission) so that you start at the computer and need to re-kill all the enemies again. You can get 3 or more barrier removals per reload so in about 10 minutes you can have all 25 done.
risseless Perfect place to do this. I recommend saving just before you hack the computer, then you can fight everyone and warp the vanguard's barriers, then reload and do it again and again until you get the 25.

Price de Nice yeah barriers aren't too common. suggest low difficulty to you can one shot the barriers with warp making the process quicker.

Krandor Warp ammo doesn't count. Only the warp ability.

Leon Kowalski FYI, before the Crescent Nebula is available, you have to complete the Horizon mission, which is only available after recruiting the first four team members suggested by the Illusive Man. In other words, it's not available from the moment you have control of the Normandy.

Valyc I don't get these biotic achievements!?

I manually use warp and overload on multiple enemies with barriers and shields, but it still does not count?

Tizzight0 You have to deplete the barrier or shield completely. If you use warp or overload and it only takes a little of the barrier or shield down that doesn't count.

mitchcraft1980 Take Thane with you too cos he has the HEAVY WARP ability so you dont have wear down their barrier just use both meranda and thane at the same time on one barrier..... Works a treat

mitchcraft1980 oh and you get a total of 7 vanguards in this so you can do it in 4 reloads .. you get 4 before you hack the terminal then the rest after but you will need to be quick cos your team mates will remove the barriers with their weapons
