has announced the addition of the "Crop
Protection China Market Opportunities and Challenges" report to
their offering.
China is a traditional agricultural country, with a total area of 5,000
billion square meters stricken by plant diseases and insect pests each
year. With only 7% of the world's arable land, China has fed 22% of the
world's population, which is a great marvel in history. How do Chinese
people achieve this? One answer is making good use of crop protection.

people achieve this? One answer is making good use of crop protection.
Crop protection is widely applied across the world and plays important
roles in guaranteeing the safety of agricultural production and the
quality of products, minimizing environmental pollution, safeguarding
public health and promoting the sustainable development of agriculture
in China. In recent years, crop protection has drawn more and more
attention from the government and its status has been improved, due to
the frequent outbreak of diseases, insect pests and weeds, and the
stricter requirement on ecological environment, food quality and natural
resources.
The total CP market value was USD11,499.39 million in 2008. With
USD.6,191.50 million which accounts for 53.84% of total market value in
2008, seed plays the most important role in Chinese CP market. Chemical
control has ranked the second largest market value of USD15,738.10
million in 2008, taking up 68.13%. CP machine, with USD827.93 million in
2008, also plays an important role. Though China is promoting
environmentally friendly methods, such as physical control and
biological control, these methods' value is still not very high. Their
market value is only USD343.17 million, consisting of only 3.00%. But
these methods will have very bright future.
As the largest agricultural and most populous country, China's plant
structure of crops and grain situation have played a great important
role in national strategic security. However, owing to frequent natural
disasters, increasing entering of alien species and serious pesticide
resistance, the occurrence of crop diseases, insect pests and weeds is
becoming more and more serious, which contributes to great challenges in
crop protection, such as development and promotion of lowly toxic
pesticides, the R&D of GM seeds. At the same time, it also bring many
investment opportunities in the fields of seed trade, seed R&D,
pesticide trade and pesticide R&D, etc. This report will give a detailed
introduction and summary about the trade and treatment of seeds, grain
supply and demand, production and consumption of pesticides, control
measures for crop diseases, insect pests and weeds and opportunities and
challenges of CP market, etc.
MNCs, with their endeavours, captures 20% pesticide market, 50%
vegetable seeds market and 4% corn seed market in 2008 in China.
The key findings in this report includes:
The total CP market value is USD11,499.39 million in 2008. Seed plays
the most important role in Chinese CP market.
Chemical control is still the main control method in China which will
not be changed in the foreseeable future
Physical control and Biological control will have a bright future in
China
With the promotion of Chinese government, seed treatment has developed
quickly. Now, about 80% seed is treated and most of them are treated
by peasants themselves with fungicide and insecticide, though some
peasants choose seed coating agent.
Above 350 CP machine manufacturers produce about 14 million CP
machines in 2008 with 12 million sold in China. Now, China totally has
about 80 million CP machines. Mechanical CP machines will be more
popular in the future.
Chinese peasants pay more attention to products quality
MNCs, with their endeavours, captures 20% pesticide market, 50%
vegetable seeds market and 4% corn seed market in 2008 in China.
Glyphosate-resistance corn and GM rice are possibly to be approved in
the next five years
