Description:

 

Glufosinate is a superactive herbicide used for control of a wide range of weeds and grasses. Also, it can kill some swart weeds that glyphosate can't.

At present, Bayer dominates both technology and market of glufosinate worldwide. Currently it has applied this technology patent in many countries.

In China, although there are many pesticide manufacturers that have registered glufosinate, only one manufacturer has the production technology with self-dominated intellectual property rights and has produced glufosinate commercially.
 
Owning to Chinese government's restriction on GM crops, as well as its higher price than glyphosate, fifteen times higher as of May 2009, glufosinate industry is expected to develop rather slowly in China in the future 10 years.

What are the aims of this report?

1. To provide you with comprehensive & in-depth understanding on glufosinate industry;
2. To figure out current supply and consumption in China and worldwide;
3. To analyze Bayer’s production situation including its production sites and technology routes, etc.;
4. To identify major domestic supplier of glufosinate, their technology routes and manufacturering cost;
5. To analyze the glufosinate patent;
6. To provide inside look at regulation and registration of glufosinate in China;
7. To know key raw materials of glufosinate in China
8. To analyze glufosinate use in China, including its use patterns, competing crops for each segment and cost of use in hectare, etc.

What can you benefit from the report?

This study will examine Bayer and Chinese glufosinate manufacturers from aspects of supply and consumption, cost & price, raw materials, technology, patent, as well as regulation, registrations, and also summarize a competitive landscape and commercial opportunities, etc.

Executive Summary

Glufosinate is a superactive herbicide used for control of a wide range of annual and perennial broad-leaved weeds and grasses. Also, it can kill some swart weeds that glyphosate can't.

In 2008, total supply volume of technical glufosinate was XXX tonnes and the sales value reached USD XXX million. The major consumption regions are North and South America, Europe, Japan and South Korea. In recent years, the demand from Southeast Asia and some developed countries in Africa has witnessed uptrend.

At present, Bayer dominates both technology and market of glufosinate worldwide. In 2008, its sales value of glufosinate was USD XXX million. Bayer mainly adopts diethyl methyl-phosphonite and acrolein as raw material by adding sodium cynide according to the principle of Strecker reaction. Currently it has applied this technology patent in many countries.

In China, there is only one patent for glufosinate production technology which is applied by Bayer. Although there are more than XXX pesticide manufacturers that have registered glufosinate, most of them simply imitate Bayer's technology, thus they can't apply their own patent.

Only Zhejiang Yongnong Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. (Yongnong）has the production technology with self-dominated intellectual property rights and also produces glufosinate. It adopts phosphorus trichloride as initiative raw material by adding methyl iodide, dibromethane and diethyl malonate to synthesize the product. The big difference in technology route between Yongnong and Bayer is that Yongnong doesn't use cyanide.

Yongnong's technology relatively lags behind that of Bayer, which leads to weak competitiveness of Yongnong's product in international market. The cost of Bayer is about USD XXX /t, only USD XXX /t more than Yongnong's USD XXX /t, while the market price of Bayer's technical product can be sold up to about USD XXX /t mainly due to its high quality, USD XXX /t higher than Yongnong’s USD XXX /t.
 
Owning to Chinese government's restriction on GM crops, the development potential of glufosinate's application in GM crops has been greatly crippled. With ten times price of glyphosate, China's farmers and agriculture institutes seldom use glufosinate. In 2008, the technical consumption was only XXX tonne in China. Considering the pollution from the production process, and the difficulties for China's manufacturers to satisfy the environmental protection standard by Chinese government, glufosinate industry is expected to develop rather slowly in China in the future XXX years.

Character of CCM' Report:

This multi-client report provides a comprehensive study on the researched subject in China, from aspects of production, technology, import & export, consumption & end uses, etc.

>>
 All the producers in China, either active or idled or potential, have been sourced and contacted. Their situation has been verified and compiled as in the appendix.
>>
 The competitiveness of Chinese production has been discussed in order to uncover the mystery of ever-increasing capability of Chinese manufacturing.
>>
 The import & export analysis for the situation in the recent three years has been conducted.
>>
 The consumption pattern of the researched subject has been carried out in order to breakdown the end uses into different segments. The major end users under each major end use segments have been identified.
>>
 The scientific methodology has been employed to conduct the quantitative forecast on this subject in the future 5-10 years.

The aim of this report is to provide powerful assistance to the strategy group and the management team in making correct decision as how to penetrate the ever-increasing China market and how to catch the maximum commercial opportunities. The report is formulated independently by CCM’s professional market researchers, based on the first-hand and primary data which are analyzed by scientific methodology, confirmed with both manufacturers/end users/traders and legal authorities, and presented in a logic way.
