Global Commercial Opportunities of Glyphosate Industry

April 19, 2011 - PRLog -- Guangzhou China April 19, 2011 – CCM, with its eight years' rich research experience and study resources in this area and the latest research on most of the players on the value chain related to glyphosate industry, is going to release the latest report on Glyphosate - Global Commercial Opportunities of Glyphosate Industry at the end of April, 2011.
With the aim to find out potential business opportunities for the players in the upstream industries, this report presents an overview of glyphosate from a global technical viewpoint with forecast on the development trend of its upstream industries and focuses on upstream raw materials supplied to glyphosate production, especially AEA, DEA and IDAN route and related industries.

In recent years, it has witnessed a promising market of glyphosate with higher price and more pressures. The increasing growth of the demand for bio-fuel requires more supply of glyphosate. Entering into 2011, pesticide production in China has entered a high-cost stage. The prices of conventional pesticides in the first two months increased by 10% - 20%. The major reason is that the raw material price hikes. The price of yellow phosphorus has increased from USD1700/t to USD2600/t. The price of chlorine has increased from over USD125/t to USD 250 /t. The price of sulfur has also seen an increase of over 10%. Acetonitrile, an important raw material of nitenpyram, has been in short supply. The substantial increase in natural gas prices also increased costs of natural gas-based glycine and iminodiacetonitrile applied in glyphosate production processes， glycine process and iminodiacetic acid (IDA) process.

It is predicted that 80% of glyphosate produced in China is for export. However, with large quantities export volume and low price, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, the EU and the United States have initiated anti-dumping investigations on China’s pesticide products.
 
What’s more, the rise awareness of the environmental protection and emissions-reduction policy have increased the operational costs of pesticide manufacturers. In 2010, China banned the glyphosate 10% SL which occupies 90% of glyphosate market share in China.

Facing those challenges, where are the commercial opportunities of glyphosate industry?
That is what you can obtain form CCM’s newly-published report. Besides the introduction of overview of global glyphosate industry like supply, demand, distribution, production and circulation, the report also focuses on:

-Competitiveness analysis and Global development trend of AEA, DEA and IDAN routes
-Raw material supply situation and forecast on investment opportunities
-Future industry transfer of global glyphosate production and investment opportunities analysis
-Potential opportunities analysis for the upstream players, intermediates producers and raw materials processors of glyphosate industry
