Forecast of pesticide market demand in 2013: Total volume increases, price changes are not large According to the statistics and forecast analysis of 31 provincial plant protection and phytosanitary stations in the country, the total demand for pesticides in 2013 is estimated to be 1.0244 million tons, which is an increase from 2012, an increase The rate is 4.68%.

Arranged in descending order, the requirements for more than 10,000 tons are glyphosate, dichlorvos, acetochlor, copper sulfate, carbendazim, chlorpyrifos, atrazine. Demand in more than 20,000 tons of provinces: Shandong, Heilongjiang, Hunan, Sichuan, Henan. Demand is in the province of 10,000-20000 tons: Guangdong, Yunnan, Jiangsu, Liaoning, Hubei, Guangxi, Anhui, Hebei, Zhejiang, Jilin and Jiangxi.

1. Reduced demand for pesticides. The estimated demand for pesticides was 120,800 tons, a decrease of 5.18% from the previous year. The demand for organophosphorus pesticides was 86,300 tons, a decrease of 6.45% compared with the previous year; the varieties with larger dosages were: dichlorvos, chlorpyrifos, trichlorfon, phoxim, acephate, and omethoate, among them, nitrate insects. Phosphorus, fenthion, chlorpyrifos, chlorpyrifos-methyl, acephate, chlorpyrifos and other needs are on the rise.

The demand for carbamate insecticides was 0.58 million tons, a decrease of 3.54% over the previous year; the varieties with larger usages: isoprocarb, carbofuran, methomyl, and anti-influx; the variety with increasing demand was grammed Budweiser, mixed aldicarb, aldicarb, butylthiocarbacarb, naphthoate, and imapencarb, and other carbamate varieties showed a decreasing trend.

The demand for pyrethroid insecticides was 0.36 million tons, which was 18.20% lower than that of the previous year. The varieties with larger dosages were: beta-cypermethrin and fenvalerate; only cyfluthrin and S-fenvalerate were found in pyrethroids. And beta-cypermethrin is a rising demand.

The demand for other insecticides was 25,100 tons, an increase of 1.5% over the previous year; the varieties with larger amounts: dimehypo, monosultap, buprofezin, imidacloprid, pymetrozine, Bacillus thuringiensis, avermectin, etc. ;

Among the varieties with increasing demand are chlorothiophene, butene fipronil, spinosad, methoxyfenozide, emamectin, acetamiprid, pymetrozine, nitenpyram, chlorfenapyr. , Liuyangmycin, abamectin, cartap, imidacloprid, chlorantraniliprole.

2. Demand for acaricides remained unchanged from the previous year. The estimated demand is 10,900 tons. The varieties with greater demand are crystal lime sulfur, acetylene, dimethicone, dicofol and triazotin. The larger increase was fenbutatin, dicofol and amitraz.

3. The demand for bactericide is further increased. The reasons for the increase in the demand for bactericides are as follows: First, the cultivation of cash crops has been increased throughout the country, and the second is the rapid expansion of the seed coating market. Expected demand is 84.71 million tons, an increase of 6.64% year-on-year; varieties with larger demand: copper sulphate, carbendazim, dexamethasone, thiophanate-methyl, chlorothalonil, tricyclazole, jinggangmycin, triazole Ketones and thirams; species with a larger increase are fludioxonil, thiabendazole, myclobutanil, vinillin, triadimenol, kresoxim-methyl, difenoconazole, tebuconazole, prochloraz, Isoflumuron, kasugamycin, propamocarb, and thiram.

4. The demand for herbicides has increased significantly. The estimated demand is 114,200 tons, an increase of 16.32% over the previous year; the varieties with larger demand: glyphosate, acetochlor, atrazine, butachlor, paraquat, 2,4-D butyl ester, herbicide Pine, metolachlor, trifluralin, dimethyl tetrachlorine, fomesafen, and quincloracic acid; species with large increase: oxathione, chlorsulfuron, acridine, benzothiazide Amines, Clomazone, Cloxazone, Risulfuron, Fomesafen, Metolachlor, Ethoxyfluazone, Fazoxanone, Nicosulfuron, 2,4-D Butyl Ester Chlorenone. The main reasons for the increase: First, the continuous improvement of the level of agricultural production technology, especially the promotion of light and simple cultivation techniques, the further increase in the use of herbicides in field crops; Second, the rapid development of genetically modified crops, some secondary weeds rose to the main weeds , The occurrence area of ​​the weeds and the harm tends to heavier; The third is the increase of the herbicide resistance. According to investigations, at present, there are 24 types of weeds and 37 biotypes in our country that have produced resistance to 10 types of herbicides.

5. Increased demand for plant growth regulators. The estimated demand is 3,712.13 tons, an increase of 6.86% compared with the same period of last year. The varieties with larger demand are ethephon, paclobutrazol, and dildoamine; the varieties with greater increase are Tianfengsu and uniconazole.

The main reasons for the increase are as follows: First, the plant growth is hindered by abnormal weather conditions. The characteristics of plant growth regulators such as lodging resistance, drought resistance, and antifreeze can significantly increase crop yields; second, it can increase the quality of vegetables and fruits in order to sell high prices; Third, plant growth regulators have a certain effect on enhancing crop growth.

6. Demand for rodenticides fell again. Expected demand is 113.38t, a year-on-year decrease of 12.75%. The species with larger declines are bromidepiron and enemy rat sodium salts; the species with greater demand are enemy mouse sodium salt and chlorine enemy mouse sodium salt.

Reasons for the decline: First, due to the increased efforts by the health and agriculture departments to eradicate rats in recent years, the density of rats has dropped dramatically. Second, the use of high-toxicity rat-killing agents has improved the ecological environment and the natural enemies of rats have increased.

7. The demand for plant protection machinery increased steadily. In recent years, the country has vigorously developed professional and unified prevention and treatment, and various localities have successively set up pest control and specialization service organizations. Farmers' enthusiasm for purchasing is very high.

With the transfer of labor force, land circulation, and the increase of large farms, especially the continuous development and expansion of specialized prevention and control organizations, and the general procurement of motorized sprayers for government bidding, sales of motorized sprayers will grow rapidly. Such as large-scale self-propelled high pole sprayer, smoke machine and other new spraying machinery has a broader market prospects. Remote control unmanned small aircraft is also gradually trying to use for pest control.

8. The price of pesticides has not changed much. In 2013, the price of pesticide products was affected by multiple factors, and the foreign trade situation will be more severe. Foreign trade may be returned to the domestic trade market, and domestic trade competition will be more intense. Therefore, prices are difficult to estimate. It is expected that most of the pesticide prices will maintain the level of 2012, and some products will fluctuate with the occurrence of pests and diseases, but the overall price will not increase.

9. Pesticide management is more standardized. The newly revised "Regulations on the Administration of Pesticides" will soon be introduced, which will give new connotations and new requirements for pesticide management. Combining China's pesticide and agricultural production practices, the management of pesticides will start from industrial upgrades, strengthen approval controls, establish business licenses, and enforce law enforcement majeure. It will address the current use of overdosing in the industry, and some crops will not be available and distributed. Business-driven drugs, foreign brands were favored, grass-roots law enforcement officials and other issues.
