Glyphosate potassium, a product
with the best theoretical performance among all glyphosate series, only
dominates rather small market share in China
As the regulation of lowering the
price of Roundup in China in
H1 2012 has drawn much market concerns, it's investigated that another
well-know glyphosate product Touchdown branded by Syngenta also suffers the
same treatment in China Hubei
Province in China
Mr. Xiang said that the retail
price of Touchdown® is about USD1.26-1.42 (RMB8-9) per bottle (250 mL), compare
with more than USD1.90 (RMB12) per bottle before 2012.
“Glyphosate potassium products
didn't sell well in China
Theoretically, the manufacturing
cost of glyphosate potassium salt is higher than that of glyphosate IPA salt
under the same content of glyphosate acid equivalent. But interestingly, the
price of Touchdown® has decreased to a comparable level as Roundup®.
"Touchdown® is not
Syngenta's focus product in China
Theoretically, glyphosate
potassium salt has two main superiorities over other glyphosate salts; the
quick efficacy and the potassium supply for crops as a fertilizer are the key
reasons why glyphosate potassium products have been widely used in overseas
countries. Domestic academic experts and market professionals all admit these
advantages of it.
“Basically, the target market of
glyphosate potassium is the high-end users. And the popularity of glyphosate potassium
products in China
According to Mr. Xiang, some
domestic companies are launching glyphosate potassium products in China
Only two companies including
Syngenta and Zhejiang Wynca Chemical Industry Group Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang Wynca)
have registered glyphosate potassium products in China
According to Mr. Tang, Territory
Manager of Zhejiang Wynca., Zhejiang Wynca is the first domestic company to
launch glyphosate potassium products in China
"Our product is different
from Syngenta's Touchdown®. Our glyphosate potassium is formulated into SG,
while Touchdown® is formulated into AS. Consumers of our glyphosate potassium
are high-end users," said Mr. Tang.
Tang emphasized that Zhejiang
Wynca's glyphosate potassium is on the promotion stage at present, and the
quotation to wholesalers is indefinite, depending on the trading amount.
"The retail packaging is 70g
per packet, which is usually priced at USD0.79 (RMB5) in retail market.”
