On Nov.
24, 2013, the Third Seed Treatment and Pest Control High-level Seminar was held
in Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province. According to the seminar, the number of seed
treatment registrations reached 375 as of November, 2013, up by 11.3% over last
year. There are some experts predicting that the number of registered seed
treatment products in China may double to more than 900 in the next two to
three years, according to Fungicides China News, issued by CCM in January.
However, at present,
domestic seed treatment products are mainly registered for only a few crops,
such as corn, wheat, soybean and rice. The number of seed treatment products
registered for potato, the fourth largest food crop in China, is very small.
With farmers' increasing knowledge of potato seed treatment and the improvement
of potato seed treatment equipment, the market for potato seed treatment
products has great development potential.
At present, the
number of domestic potato seed treatments is too few to meet needs of the
market. As of 18 Dec. 2013, there are three companies obtaining the
registrations for potato seed treatment products in China, including Syngenta,
Bayer and Gansu Huashi Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd.
Moreover, there are
only six potato treatment products that have been registered, including two
fludioxonil products (25g/L FS), one metalaxyl product (25% FS), two
thiamethoxam products (70% ZF) and one imidacloprid product (600g/L FS). These
products are used to control black scurf disease (caused by rhizoctonia
solani), late blight disease, aphids and grubs.
After years of
development, more companies have paid attention to the domestic potato seed
treatment market. Therefore, there are some domestic experts predicting that
the application of potato seed treatment products will enter a new stage in the
next five years and this will promote the rapid and steady development of the
potato industry.
China's potato
planting area and fresh potato output are the biggest in the world. China's
2012 potato planting area is more than 5.20 million ha. while China's annual
fresh potato output is more than 81.54 million tonnes. Inner Mongolia, Guizhou,
Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan, Chongqing and Heilongjiang are the major potato
producing areas in China, and the total planting area of these seven regions
accounts for more than 70% of China's potato planting area.
The number of potato
diseases is more than one hundred, and there are mainly 15 kinds of common
potato diseases in China, including late blight, wart disease, scab, early
blight, ring rot, bacterial wilt, blackleg, viral disease, bacterial soft rot,
dry rot, verticillium wilt, black scurf etc. The late blight, ring rot and
viral disease are known as the three major diseases. The main pests to potato
are ladybugs, tuber moths, aphids and underground pests such as grubs, mole
crickets and cutworms.
