Rising Planting Area of Genetically Modified Crops In Paraguay
2011-3-31
After Paraguay’s Government approved the trial cultivation of genetically modified corn last year, there are four types of genetically modified corns being grown in Paraguay now, two of them are from the Monsanto, one is from Syngenta, another one is from Pioneer which is owned by DOW and the Dupont. If the experiment is successful, they will begin commercial cultivation of GMO corn in 2012.
The farmer planted large areas of genetically modified soybean in Paraguay, with total planting area 2.6Million hectares.
As the planting area becomes larger, there will be more market demand for broad-spectrum, less toxicity herbicide such as Glyphosate.
Ever since 2009 many agrochemical registration reached EU, the number of technical material succeeded in getting the final certification have increased steadily. Till the beginning of this month, 13 kinds of agrochemicals were confirmed to be re-registered by the EU committee. It includes herbicide, fungicide and pesticide.
Since 2009 REACH came into force, the supervision of agrochemical registration has been more stringent than ever. Many Manufacturer in China also joined the application actively, these kinds of success has firmly increased Chinese companies' ambition to be qualified by REACH.
Only if you could fulfill the requirement by EU, the market will satisfy you, if you want to share the cake in EU market.
