The China origin market comes back to silent after exhibition of Mar in Shanghai. The trading volume of local market keep decreasing for two weeks, which make people feel full of hope as well as helpless.
Inner requirements can not be hidden by the surface silent. For the weathers reason, the seasons for pesticides using is still not coming. Depends on the current reaction from market, regarding the southern cities, the temperature is pretty low at the beginning of spring, and the temperature gap between day and night is high. So the damage is not very heavy, which make the pesticides industries feel confusing as they can not confirm the infortion whether they should prepare large stock for the needs in the near future. Most manufacturers keep low stock standard, and the original chemicals price stay in a quick increasing. They think it is a stupid behavior to buy large quantity stock when the price is very high. At the same time, the original chemicals suppliers try to increase the price when everyone is in shot of stock and forces the pesticides manufacturers to accept the higher price. Now their contest is still on the way. It is hard to guess who will win until the real valid seasons coming.
The truth of chlorpyrifos' price is decreasing but not increasing. Jiangsu Baoling said, the original materials of chlorpyrifos are stop for producing ,which sends a signal to the confusing market that the price of chlorpyrifos will be increased in the near future. Recently, As one of the main raw materials of chlorpyrifos, ethyl chloride, the supply stays in a urgent situation, and the price keeps increasing. While the producing capability of chlorpyrifos enlarge slowly, although the price increase a little, the main trend is still decreasing. That makes the chlorpyrifos manufacturers all face the problems of increasing cost. Baoling’s stop production sends the following information to the market: 1. The pressure of factories' cost will be increasing deeply if the market price still stay in a down road. 2.The profit of original factories add only a little even the price of chlorpyrifos has been higher than the previous years. 3. The long production time of pesticides force manufacturers to solve the increasing stock problems. 4. After stock clearing, there will be a blank time for the markets, the factories will try to improve the price of chlorpyrifos through this time, however, for the long time point, the price of chlorpyrifos will go up.
Having no idea about the decreasing of lambdacyhalothrin's price, it is not common and normal for the pesticides' price decreasing when the raw materials keep increasing. It is said that the reason is some factories try to promote the long time previous stock , but still have not evidence to prove this. During weekend, there are some companies try to follow the trends to sell the products at low price. Obviously, the price of lambdacyhalothrin will stay in a decreasing situation in the future. The new drug using season will come soon, it will be clear for the future market of pesticides in a shot time.
The price for imidacloprid is still high. The market is relatively stable as there's no new source. Because the price growth is too fast, most inventories were rabbed in a short time. The price keeps on rising, the risk is also rising, so no one is willing to adjust the price. They all hold the store in hand and will hit out soon when the price is suitable. Recently imidacloprid is mainly exported to foreign counties because the domestic order is less, or domestic formulation plant can't afford this high price. Tthey've already searched new substitute goods. The price for imidacloprid is predicted to rise further. With no new source appear and international purchase is down, this year the unit price of imidacloprid technical is limitless.
The price of Acetamiprid TC hasn't changed very much. The rising in imidacloprid has already attracted too much attention, as brother product Acetamiprid is relatively quite. Continue no stock, continue no price goods, people have been used to it.
The market for glyphosate trends can not be predicted. Near the end of March, the factory order is basically end. They've begun to book order from some big and superior domestic wholesalers and merchants, but they are still hard to offer in aboard. Because Nongda has already cut down the price, it is almost similar to the price of preparation. Face to this matter, there will be a firece challenge. At present, domestic glyphosate processing factories have no good plan yet. From the quotation of most domestic merchants and formulation factories, we can see there is still no solution proposed by the Glyphosate manufacturers. Then this will be a hard year for Glyphosate manufacturers.
Paraquat's price keeps balance with last week. Now it has been the end of south Aisa market, the sales season of China is not coming, and it is difficult for paraquat to increase the price, people don't want to let it back to the low profit era. So even the market for paraquat is worse, but price still the same, it needs some time to see the real trends of paraquats' price.
The market of fungicides is not opened yet. As the requirements from South America are lower, the sales quantity of tebuconazole dropped a little. The price is also a little down. The pressure of stockers in China becomes large. And the real market in China for pesticides is still not coming. It is nature for the tebuconazole's price going down. Just at present we still can't estimate the rock bottom price of tebuconazole.
Difenoconazole continues the price for last week. The price has lasted for several weeks without too much change. Besides the factory reduce their capacity and inventory, the pressure of cost is also large. And the production of Azoxystrobin and Kresoximmethyl (new alternative pesticides) keep enlarger, the price is keeping lowering, the challenge of Difenoconazole will become larger and larger in the future, will leads to a big possibility for price decreasing.
The price of Azoxystrobin ,Propiconazole keep stable as last week. Only small changes happened.
