A new growth point of avermectin family

Avermectin potency is broad-spectrum, high efficiency, and can work with a majority of pesticides, expanding the spectrum insecticide, improve control effect and insecticidal speed, is now the largest amount, one of the widest range of pesticides inChina. Avermectin production and sales in recent years have been steadily rising, since 1995, an annual increase rate of Avermectin is about 50%, in 2008 China Ministry of Agriculture recommended avermectin as an alternative varieties enter into the rice market, many manufacturers have introduced avermectin and emamectin benzoate products to seize rice insecticide market.

In 2009, due to serious crop pests, abamectin manufacturer in order to adapt to market demand expanding production capacity. Among them, in the first half year, avermectin market demand is larger, 1to 8 of 2010, the actual sales is about 1,800 tons, has reduced demand in the second half year. However, the total annual demand is still growing, an increase of more than 30%, the increase amount is about 2,400 tons. China is the largest producer and exporter of avermectin, this year, India, Thailand, Vietnam and other countries imports avermectin from China has been increased, has more than one hundred tons, it is expected that in the future Chinese exports will grow further. In the products types, avermectin have large quantity, wide application, miticide, livestock dual-use insect and home health medicine and other areas of the series will account a place in the future pesticide market. At present, Chinese avermectin experienced a prolonged slump, the prices have risen, the industry believes that avermectin prices increasing was lack of motivation, the market outlook is difficult to continue rising, the overall market is stable.

As an emerging pesticides industrial system, avermectin derivatives ivermectin, acetyl avermectins and Abamectin emamectin benzoate and other products can be used to control a variety of important crops pests. With avermectin emamectin extensive use in rice, it opens up the avermectin market, it is expected that abamectin emamectin will occupy a larger market space in the future.

It is understood that due to the use method and dosage are not reasonable, currently in some areas, the use amount of avermectin formulations larger, residual levels excessive, pest and disease resistance is strong, but most of avermectin formulations are missible oil, use larger amount of organic solvent, not only increased product costs, but also not environmentally friendly. While the avermectin emamectin benzoate with high activity, low residue, low toxicity, good security, advanced formulations, is an efficient, low toxicity, green bio-pesticides. According to statistics, China has 22 original drug registered manufacturers, the emamectin benzoate relevant manufacturers have 227, and emamectin benzoate formulation relevant registration certificate nearly 400. The highest content of a single dose of emamectin benzoate is 5%, in 2009, Chinese emamectin benzoate design capacity has been increased to 1450 tons or so, the actual production and sales of 1 to 8 is 750 tons, compared with 2008 increased by about double. Currently, there are more than 30% Avermectin used for emamectin salt production, with plant protection departments and distributors marketing and publicity, avermectin emamectin is expected to have more promising market in the future.
