CCM: Phenamacril, another independently developed fungicide to make sales of RMB100 million 03-28-2016

The Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute plans to vigorously promote three independently developed phenamacril fungicides. Notably, revenue from the company’s phenamacril fungicides achieved over USD10.71 million (RMB70 million). The fungicide, under heavy promotion, is hopeful to earn "RMB100 million" in 2016.

On 25 Feb., 2016, at the 19th Jiangsu Pesticide and Machinery Information Technology Exchange Meeting, Cao Yang, general manager of the Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute), introduced their ten major pesticides that will be promoted in 2016, including three independently developed phenamacril fungicides. Notably, revenue from the company’s phenamacril fungicides achieved over USD10.71 million (RMB70 million). The fungicide, under heavy promotion, is hopeful to earn "RMB100 million" in 2016.

 

In 2016, the Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute will mainly promote the following three fungicides:
- 25% Phenamacril SC (Jinhu®)

  • Type of formulation: single formulation
  • Feature: performance more reliable in preventing and controlling serious wheat head blight, more excellent in regions with high resistance against carbendazim and triazole fungicides
  • Its sales ranked No.3 among fungicides for crop protection


- 25% Phenamacril SC (Liangdi®)

  • Type of formulation: single formulation (high purity technical with safener)
  • Feature: targeted at rice bakanae disease, safe to rice
  • Usage: seed soaking


- 48% Phenamacril + tebuconazole SC (Jinxing®)

  • Type of formulation: mixed formulation
  • Feature: broad-spectrum, especially for wheat head blight, powdery mildew and rust


 


“Phenamacril is a cyanoacrylate fungicide developed by Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute in 1998. It has special chemical structure and stands out among so many other pesticides,” an insider said. Different from mainstream fungicides that are broad-spectrum, phenamacril focuses on controlling wheat head blight and rice bakanae disease. So far, this kind of fungicide has been granted one patent for invention and five patents for application.

Besides, Jiangsu Pesticides Research Institute began field trials on phenamacril in 2001.

In 2005 and 2006, the company commissioned several institutes to do field trials on the efficacy of 25% phenamacril SC against wheat head blight. The institutes include: the Jiangsu Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, the Hunan Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, the Institute of Soil Fertilizer, Hubei Academy of Agricultural Sciences (ISF, HAAS) and the Institute of Plant Protection, Anhui Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

In 2008 and 2009, field trials on the efficacy of 25% phenamacril SC against rice bakanae disease were commissioned to the Jiangsu South Pesticide Research Center, the Heilongjiang Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, the ISF, HAAS and the Hunan Institute of Plant Protection.

In the coming future, Jiangsu Pesticides Research Institute will further develop phenamacril’s potential in controlling diseases, such as fusarium wilt, and register more relevant fungicides.

 

Notably, wheat head blight’s resistance to carbendazim has increased due to the long-term, continuous and only use in recent years. Thus a new fungicide to replace and reduce the use of carbendazim is in great need. Despite various pesticides for wheat head blight in the market, mainly benzimidazole, phenamacril, prochloraz and triazole fungicides, phenamacril stands out because of its good efficacy, significantly low toxins and improvement in crop quality and output. Also, phenamacril has effective control over rice bakanae disease.

Thanks to these advantages, phenamacril will be an important alternative fungicide for wheat head blight and rice bakanae disease. Now phenamacril fungicides have been recommended and purchased by local departments of agriculture.

In 2016, with great strengths, phenamacril fungicides are expected to boost in sales under the vigorous promotion of Jiangsu Pesticide Research Institute and become another independently developed fungicide with full-year sales of "RMB100 million".
