In the 1970s, Shanghai Pesticide Research Institute successfully created a fungicide namely jinggangmycin. From then on, jinggangmycin has been one of the most preferred fungicides for the control of sheath blight on rice in the domestic pesticide market. However, high-effective pesticides created overseas have gradually entered the domestic market since the 1990s, few pesticides developed by China have been as influential as jinggangmycin. On one hand, foreign agrochemical enterprises have brought many advanced pesticides for farmers as well as trade opportunities for the pesticide industry in China. On the other hand, much of the attention of domestic pesticide operators are focused on the profit from production and trade of generic products; meanwhile, increasingly strict requirements by environment protection have pushed up the cost and increased difficulties in pesticide creation. Hence their enthusiasm to invest in pesticide research and development has been declining.
In order to encourage and guide domestic pesticide enterprises to enhance creation of new pesticides, the Chinese government has implemented polices and launched support projects on pesticide research and development since 1995. Under the circumstance, China's self-developed pesticides have been developed and have been well-received domestically to some extent, but the domestic pesticide innovation is still at the primary stage.
In this issue, CCM mainly lists the 46 pesticide ingredients developed by China, which had obtained registrations (including expired ones at present) in China during 2002 to 26 Nov., 2013. Due to non-public information and delayed information, it is estimated the actual number of self-developed pesticide ingredients in China over the past 10 years is more than 46.
