Qilu Synva's emamectin benzoate TC capacity expansion project is progressing well. Once the lines successfully put into operation, the company will increase its emamectin benzoate TC capacity by 2,000 t/a. Wuzhong Linghang has completed the construction of 2,000 t/a imidacloprid TC production line, and has the line passed acceptance check recently. China's imidacloprid TC market welcomes a new supplier. The compound chlorantraniliprole went off-patent in China on 13 Aug., 2022. So far, some Chinese pesticide producers have planned chlorantraniliprole TC capacity. Among them, Guang'an Lier publicised in late Sept. the EI report involving a set of chlorantraniliprole TC pilot-test equipment, Shandong Youdao finished provisional acceptance of the chlorantraniliprole TC equipment also in late Sept., and Chongqing Huage is currently preparing for early-stage procedures for its chlorantraniliprole TC project. In early Oct., the ex-work prices of imidacloprid TC and acetamiprid TC were basically stable under weak sales, seeing less than 1% fluctuation. It is worth noting that the supply of these two products would increase soon as Shandong Hailir may resume operation of imidacloprid and acetamiprid production lines in early Nov. In late Oct., prices of most insecticides TC dropped mainly due to sluggish demand. Some organophosphorus insecticides TC and pyrethroid insecticides TC had stable prices.

On 12 Oct., NATESC released the Technical Programme for the Prevention and Control of Major Wheat Pests and Diseases during the Whole 2022-23 Growth Period. The Programme specifies the main prevention and control targets and simultaneous control targets in specific wheat growing regions, and proposes green prevention and control measures to be taken during the whole growth period.

According to incomplete statistics, as of 9 Oct., local governments of 16 cities in 13 provinces such as Shanxi, Henan, Hunan, Guangxi, Guangdong had issued hundred-day action plans for prevention & control of air pollution in 2022. Some cities have required strict control of energy-intensive and large-emission projects.

In Jan.-Aug. 2022, lambda-cyhalothrin products from China were mainly exported to the US, Belgium, India, etc. The total export volume (actual volume) went down by 58.12% YoY, but export volume of TC products increased. And the US was the largest export destination of China's lambda-cyhalothrin TC; its share to the total lambda-cyhalothrin TC export was 50.79% in this period, up 1.69 percentage points YoY.

In Oct. 2022, ICAMA approved 38 newly-registered insecticide products, including three hygienic insecticide products.

In Oct., FLAGCHEM, Lier Chemical and Shandong Youdao obtained pesticide registration certificates for chlorantraniliprole TC. As of mid-Oct., ICAMA had so far approved registration of 19 chlorantraniliprole products (registration renewals included) in 2022, and more than half of the approved chlorantraniliprole TC products were first registered in 2022. The registration boom is encouraged by large market potential as well as the fact that the compound went off-patent in China from 13 Aug., 2022.
