Fungicides become the biggest highlight of the pesticide market in 2011

In 2011, China's pesticide market had a strong demand for fungicides. In particular, the production, import volume and export volume of fungicides increased by more than 20%, showing strong growth momentum. Bactericide has become the biggest highlight of the entire pesticide market.

Rising demand and strong production and sales

There are three reasons for the increase in demand for bactericidal agents in 2011: First, the growing area of ​​vegetables and fruits in various regions has increased in recent years, and the country has taken the lead in setting up vegetable bases in large and medium-sized cities, vegetable bases for southern vegetables in the north, vegetable bases for counter-season in the north and various types. Horticultural Products Standard Park, these vegetables and horticultural crops have a large variety of diseases, and they require a large quantity of fungicides. Generally, they are several times larger than large crops. Second, large crops, especially food crops, have been resistant to disease in the past two years. Poor sex, disease aggravated; Third, preservation of fruits and vegetables, storage, industrial anti-mite and anti-mildew demand for fungicides increased.

In all fungicides categories, the domestic consumption and market value of triazole fungicides have increased significantly. The current triazole production capacity has reached 50,000 tons / year, the total output of the original drug has exceeded 20,000 tons, in 2011 the domestic consumption of triazole fungicides has exceeded 10,000 tons, accounting for about 15% of the domestic total consumption of fungicides. Triadimefon, tricyclazole, tebuconazole and propiconazole are the triazole fungicides with the largest domestic consumption. The total consumption of the original drugs accounts for more than 80% of the triazole fungicides. While the demand for bactericidal agents has risen, prices have also risen. For example, the original drug triadimefon increased from 53,000 yuan (t price, the same below) to 58,000 yuan, and that of tebuconazole rose from 75,000 yuan to 85,000 yuan. , carbendazim original drug rose from 31,000 yuan to 34,000 yuan. The average price of bulk fungicides increased by 20% to 35%. According to an interview with the reporter, the output of all the provinces and major fungicides production enterprises in 2011 was higher than that in 2010. Shandong Province produced 3,242.78 tons of high-quality fungicides this year, an increase of 12% year-on-year. 22 enterprises in Jiangsu Province produced a total of 252,278 tons of chemical pesticides in the first three quarters of the year, including 44,794 tons of fungicides, which was an increase of 24.3% over the same period of last year.

According to statistics, 60% of the country's total output of fungicides is exported. The export of fungicides this year was also better than in previous years, and the number of exports to Europe increased. Companies in Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia have strong demand for high-quality, low-cost germicidal products from China. At the same time, these companies also expect to find Chinese partners and try to open the Chinese market.

New products are repeatedly favored

In recent years, bactericide products have been updated faster and faster, and old products have been replaced by new products. Shenyang Research Institute of Chemical Industry and other research institutes developed a variety of products such as fluoromorpholine, diterpenic acid esters, oxazolidazole, and carbenicillin. Enterprises are not far behind. Zhejiang Longwan Chemical Co., Ltd. has developed the bactericide Thiobacillus (Loncobacter) for the use of vegetables and Foshan Yinghui Crop Science Co., Ltd. to develop the protophytic phosphorus for the control of rice blast, which is favored by the market. The emergence of a new ratio of the bactericide mixture has obvious advantages over the single agent in terms of efficacy and control of crops, and it is very popular among farmers. Farmers are increasingly demanding new varieties of high-efficiency, low-toxic, non-pollution fungicides. In the rice market, the consumption of Jinggangmycin, a traditional large-tonnage biocide for the control of sheath blight, has gradually declined, and new types of products such as hexaconazole, tebuconazole, and polyoxin have emerged, occupying the market share of Jinggangmycin. . In recent years, in the eradication of rice blast, in addition to the conventional rice cultivars such as rice sorghum, different rice sorghum, and rice glutinous rice, there have emerged some new high-potency pharmaceuticals such as ethyl allicin, kresoxim-methyl, tetracycline, and mitomycin. Amines and so on. Prochloraz is known by rice farmers as a specific medicine for the control of rice bakanae disease, rice blast, sheath blight, and false smut.

Anhui Dingyuan County agricultural materials distributor told the reporter that the control effect of new bactericide products is generally better than conventional pesticides. Although prices are generally about 10% higher than traditional products, the proportion of large rural households using new products is increasing. At the same time, fruit trees, vegetables, and economic crops are of higher value. Farmers are willing to make high investments to ensure income increases.

Foreign varieties have a strong beach

Following the large number of high-end insecticides and herbicides entering the domestic market, multinational corporations have recently increased their efforts to put bactericidal agents. In the prevention and treatment of rice and wheat diseases, the share of foreign bactericides has accounted for 25% to 30%, and the trend Continuously strengthening, this will lead to more intense domestic and international product competition.

The multinational companies have the following characteristics in the fungicides market in China: First, they are constantly developing new products based on market needs, and are committed to providing solutions to the disease as a whole. For example, Dow Corning introduced the fungicide Dasheng (Manson Manganese Zinc) in response to frequent outbreaks of wheat rust, corn leaf spot and peanut bacterial wilt and root rot in recent years in Shandong, Henan, and Hebei. Excellent control effects are quickly sought after by the market. Another example is Swiss Syngenta's introduction of the bactericide benzopropiconazole (Ai Miao), and the insecticides thiamethoxam, peak (pyridone), Fogo and other product portfolios that can effectively control the main pests of paddy fields. The occurrence of hazards, production of significant results. Second, the prices of imported bactericides and domestic bactericides have shown very different trends. This year, the average price of foreign brands of fungicides increased by about 20%. The prices of domestic bulk fungicides were mostly up and down. The prices of triadimefon, tebuconazole and propiconazole rose by 5,000 to 8,000 yuan, which was also due to soaring prices of basic chemical raw materials. , Increased labor costs and increased costs for comprehensive environmental management. Foreign sterilant products have proprietary intellectual property rights and become patented products, and their marketing and channel maintenance capabilities are very strong. The price of bactericide products is maintained at high prices, and fluctuations are very small. For example, the price of mid-to-high-end fungicides represented by Swiss Syngenta's Aimiao was relatively stable, and the market sales also climbed by more than 20%. However, in China, 17 fungicides with independent intellectual property rights have caused the market price to fluctuate drastically due to the blind competition leading to vicious competition. For example, the price of hexaproterenol in the first quarter was 130,000 yuan, which fell to 120,000 yuan in the third quarter due to the increase in production and the decrease in usage. Third, transnational corporations are also impacting on the original domestic business model in their operations. Foreign companies focus on increasing marketing efforts, stably occupying the market through technical training, controlling logistics, giving high returns to dealers, etc., resulting in the rapid expansion of foreign germicides in China.
