CCM’s Agro Database to Make Its Debut in AgrochemEx 2013 in Shanghai

During 16^th–18^th October 2013, CCM will participate in the AgrochemEx 2013, an annual agrochemical symposium and exhibition organized by the China Crop Protection Industry Association (CCPIA) at Shanghai Everbright Convention and Exhibition Center. This is the second time that CCM has attended the expo, in which we are going to introduce our agrochemicals database package service—Agro Database to the expo visitors from across the world.

Agro Database Ongoing

Agro Database is a new online standard data service package specially designed for our clients. We have established a huge amount of database, which is running on a coordinative processing platform that can output loads of raw data, intermediate data, and derivative publications related to the agricultural industry.

One-stop Intelligences of Agrochemicals Industry Chain

Agro Database is a one-stop information repository providing users with endless agricultural intelligences covering the complete agrochemicals industry chain, ranging from raw material, intermediates, to technical, formulations and planting. Information in the database can be sourced according to four categories, namely pesticides (e.g. herbicides active ingredients, insecticides active ingredients, fungicides active ingredients, plant growth regulator, etc.), fertilizers (e.g. organic fertilizers, inorganic fertilizers, semi-organic fertilizers, etc.), seeds (e.g. seed treatment, seed consumption, etc.) and agricultural products (e.g. corn, starch, cassava, rice, soybean, etc.).

CCM offers infinite capacity of database contents, and allows customers share the related contents with their inner users. Through our real-time online update, the database users can easily access to the latest market intelligences of the agrochemicals industry at any time and from any location.

All in One Database

As of 30^th September 2013, CCM’s Agro Database has accumulated more than 500 pieces of industry news, which are sourced from our monthly newsletters, such as Glyphosate China Monthly Report, Crop Protection China Monthly Report, Herbicides China News, Fungicides China News, Insecticides China News, Seed China News, etc. In addition, over 150 copies of annual market reports with insightful information related to China’s agriculture industry will be provided.

The database also aggregates a huge amount of monthly-updated data, which is in relation to producers, production, cost, price, consumption, etc. Basing on the original data sourced from China Customs and our primary data sourced from various channels, we will timely update the data contents with our exclusive analysis, and ensure the data has the maximum reliability and accuracy through rigorous inspection.

To make our users find the information they need in a more convenient way, we also endow the database with a daily updated micro-report database, Content Chunk, which features more than 20,000 agro-related information entries. All information provided in Content Chunk is derived from CCM’s various comprehensive newsletters and market reports, and presented in different forms, namely text, figure, picture, table, and group (group refers to a collection of information integrated by texts, figures, pictures and tables).

Free Trial of Agro Database

To offer our clients an opportunity to experience how accessible and practical the database is, we will give expo visitors a free trial of the Agro Database. After the expo, we will continue to launch the free trial to more clients. Your visit to our booth (Booth number: 3B13) during the expo and support to our database package service are sincerely welcomed.

Ex-factory price of azoxystrobin technical rallies

Domestic ex-factory price of azoxystrobin technical has begun to rally since late Dec. 2012 as the demand for this fungicide increased mainly from overseas market and the stocks of some leading domestic manufacturers got low. And these main factors stimulating price rise of azoxystrobin technical still exist, indicating that the product's price may continue going up to a certain extent in the next few months of this year, according to Fungicides China News issued by CCM I in February.

Specifically, in late Dec. 2012, the ex-factory price of azoxystrobin 95% TC increased by 5.33% to about USD37,672/t (RMB237,000/t) compared with that in early Dec. 2012. It was not until 8 Jan., 2013 that a majority of domestic manufacturers raised their quoted prices, climbing to around USD38,692/t (RMB243,000/t), up 8.18% over early Dec. 2012. Moreover, this uptrend still prevails in the rest weeks of Jan. 2013. Moreover, it surged to USD39,804/t (RMB248,000/t) in early Feb. 2013.

As a matter of fact, the ex-factory price of azoxystrobin technical plummeted in China in 2010 and 2011 with the capacity expansion. Moreover, it still didn't manage to get rid of the decline trend in 2012.

In detail, the price fall range of azoxystrobin technical was bigger in the first four months of 2012. The ex-factory price of azoxystrobin 95% TC dropped to USD40,915/t (RMB258,000/t) in early April 2012, down 23.06% in comparison with that in early Jan. 2012.

From May to Sept. 2012, the price decline range of azoxystrobin 95% TC was smaller, only 6.74%. And in Q4 2012, the ex-factory price of this fungicide decreased to a relatively low level over the previous three quarters of last year. It is particularly worth noting that the ex-factory price of azoxystrobin 95% TC firstly fell below USD50,000/t (RMB318,471/t) in March 2012, hitting about USD45,904/t (RMB290,000/t), down 13.67% over early Jan. 2012. And it was not until July 2012 that its ex-factory price once again fell below USD40,000/t (RMB254,627/t) to about USD39,273/t (RMB250,000/t).

Thereafter, the ex-factory price of azoxystrobin 95% TC sank all the way and broke below the previous month's low in early Dec. 2012, less than USD36,000/t (RMB226,478/t), slipping to USD35,765/t (RMB225,000/t).

The increasing capacity resulted from more and more domestic agrochemcial companies' launch of their azoxystrobin technical production is the most important factor dragging down the ex-factory price of the product in the past three years. Furthermore, the rapid capacity expansion caused confusion in the market of azoxystobin technical, among which price disorder and malign competition were relatively serious problems.

It is well known that azoxystobin is the most popular fungicide in the world with an annual sales value of over USD1.0 billion at present, which attracted close attention of a large number of domestic agrochemical companies in the past few years. Coupled with the expired patent of the product in 2010, China's capacity of azoxystrobin technical witnessed a jump in 2011, amounting to about 1,500t/a.

Stepping into 2012, domestic companies' enthusiasm for azoxystrobin is not diminished but more inspired. This can be seen from the registration situation of azoxystrobin in China. According to the Institute for the Control of Agrochemicals, Ministry of Agriculture (ICAMA), the new registration quantity of azoxystrobin in 2012 amounted to 37 (not including repacking registration), including 22 for technical and 15 for formulations.

However, a majority of domestic manufacturers have had to reasonably plan production since H2 2012 due to the gloomy demand for azoxystrobin from overseas market and slimmer profit margin. As a result, they have tried to keep stock level low during the past few months, which can make the price right itself little by little.

Coupled with the coming of fungicide export peak season, most of azoxystrobin manufacturers in China have raised their quotations recently. Under the circumstances, the ex-factory price of azoxystrobin 95% TC witnessed a sound soar in the meantime. It is estimated that the ex-factory price of this fungicide will continue going up in the first half of 2013 with the demand push, but its rise range will not be very big due to the intense competition inside this industry.

Huge Potential in China’s Ethanolamine Market

China’s ethanolamine industry has changed much in the past three years, especially in 2011. As the second largest producer and consumer of ethanolamine in the world, China will play a more important role in global market.

Attracted by growing demand in domestic market, more enterprises are engaged in the production of ethanolamine in China. At the end of 2011, there are 22 active ethanolamine producers. Both capacity and output of ethanolamine witness high growth rate from 2007 to 2011. Among these active producers, who boosted the fast growth of ethanolamine production in the past five years? And why do foreign enterprises start to newly build plant in China? And whether some new projects or capacity expansion are planned in China by the end of 2011?

Since the domestic supply of ethanolamine can’t meet the demand in China, besides the quality of domestic products fails in the requirement of some downstream products, such as glyphosate and taurine, a large quantity of ethanolamine is imported annually to China before 2011. With the commissioning of large ethanolamine production lines at the end of 2010 and in 2011, the import volume of ethanolamine in China has dropped in 2011. What is the situation of ethanolamine import in the past years, and how about the detailed import situation of ethanolamine in 2011?

In China, ethanolamine is mainly used in the production of cement grinding aid, agrochemicals, organic synthesis, surfactant, polyurethane, etc. In the past years, driven by cement grinding aid and organic synthesis, the ethanolamine consumption grows rapidly in China. With the development of each downstream industry, the consumption pattern of ethanolamine is changing. What changes have happened for ethanolamine consumption pattern in China? How about the detailed consumption situation of ethanolamine including each ethanolamine product in each downstream industry in China in 2011?

CCM International’s 4^th Edition Report of Production and Market of Ethanolamine in China will give the answers to the above questions and show the truth to penetrate into China’s ethanolamine market. Besides, other points in China's ethanolamine industry are covered:
- Production technology from major suppliers
- Raw material supply situation
- Price change of ethanolamine in 2007-2011
- Involvement and achievement of multinational corporations
- Competitive landscape in ethanolamine industry
- Forecast on supply and demand to 2020 and the trend of major downstream industries
- Introduction to key active ethanolamine producers
