中国杀虫剂月报

Pesticide Industry stages farces year after year, namely, up and down along with the emergence of new pesticides. A new pesticide goes into the market almost every year. At the same time, some products also withdraw from the market. In China, there are 30,000 pesticide products (including specifications), but no more than 1,000 products achieve good sales in the market, according to a rough estimation. Pesticide products' success rate is less than 3% in China Pesticide Industry. Most products face deficits and listing failure, which causes incalculable losses for the pesticide companies. On the contrary, if a new listed product has large influence in China (China is a big pesticide consumer), it will bring endless profits to its company.

DuPont, a well-known international agrichemical company, by virtue of its new product-cyantraniliprole, starts to capture China’s market again. Cyantraniliprole, registered in China in Sept. this year, is expected to go into Chinese market in 2013, which will be a disaster for domestic pesticide companies. Generally, the listing of new products from foreign companies like DuPont and Syngenta can achieve excellent results mainly because of their strong R&D capacities and comprehensive promotion. For example, Chlorantraniliprole from DuPont has been largely welcomed by more and more farmers since it came into Chinese market in 2008.
