2017 Pesticide Market present situation and Future Prospect Analysis and Forecast

In recent years, agriculture has developed rapidly, and the pesticide industry has been changing rapidly. a variety of new and efficient pesticide products and plant protection technologies have been developed and applied. The following is a specific analysis of the current situation and prospects of China's pesticide market:

In 2016, the characteristics of "Xiao Nian" were obvious, and the area of pest control decreased by 9.8%.

In 2016, major crop diseases and insect pests in China generally occurred in a moderate year, with an area of nearly 6.3 billion mu of diseases, insects, weeds and rodents, a decrease of 10.8 percent over the previous year, and a control area of 7.6 billion mu, 9.8 percent less than the previous year.

The pesticide industry continues to show the "small year" characteristics.

Specific performance, the decline in revenue growth, weak demand, the prices of most products continue to maintain a low level of operation, pesticide prices are stable, pesticide market supply exceeds demand. On the whole, pesticides still hovered in the low-profit break-even period in 2016.

Increased use of fungicides

According to the preliminary investigation and statistics of provinces, autonomous regions and cities throughout the country, the use of pesticides decreased, the use of fungicides increased, herbicides slightly increased, rodenticide usage remained the same, plant growth regulators increased, and the proportion of imported pesticides increased year by year.

Efficient drugs and equipment will become the biggest growth point in 2017, and the national demand for pesticides will be reduced by 2% next year.

According to the preliminary forecast and statistical analysis of 31 provincial plant protection systems across the country, the total national pesticide demand (commodity volume) in 2017 is expected to be 920000 tons, a discount of nearly 300000 tons, a decrease of about 2% over the previous year. The total demand for pesticides showed a downward trend, and the amount of bio-pesticides increased significantly.

The upgrading of plant protection equipment will be accelerated.

It is expected that in 2017, the demand for knapsack manual sprayers will continue to decline, and knapsack electric and power sprayers will gradually replace knapsack manual sprayers. It is expected that large and medium-sized pesticide application machinery will continue to grow in 2017, and specialized cooperation organizations and new business entities will become the main purchasing force. The re-implementation of a new round of animal and plant protection projects in 2017 will provide a good opportunity for the upgrading of plant protection machinery in China.

Plant protection drones will continue to grow

The working area of plant protection UAV is increasing year by year, especially in paddy field disease control. Plant protection drones are expected to continue to grow in 2017. Drone manufacturers are bound to change from selling machines to selling services. Pilots of drones will become a hot profession, and the market is seriously insufficient, which needs to be paid close attention to.
