China’s Corn Seed Business Becomes More and More Popular

It seems to be a trend that quite a few seed players are getting involved in corn seed industry in succession or further enhancing their existing corn seed business. The corn seed market, as the largest sector in domestic seed industry, has strongly attracted seed players both at home and abroad.

Most leading seed companies in China run corn seed business and many companies have taken corn seed as the core business. Some insiders even believe that those seed companies without corn seed business would be marginalized sooner or later. Unlike Shandong Denghai and Gansu Dunhuang, Longping High-tech is very weak in corn seed business. However, Longping High-tech is making great efforts to open up the corn seed market.

When some listed companies such as WanXiang Doneed and Origin are vigorously enhancing their corn seed business, Winall Hi-tech declares to develop the corn seed business by purchasing a prominent company located in Northeast China. Even Grand Agriseeds, a newly listed company in hybrid rice seed business, claims in its 2011 semiannual report that it has obtained a corn variety called "Keyu 3".

Overseas seed giants are also accelerating the market distribution in China. After the great success of Xianyu 335, Pioneer is expected to promote other corn varieties across China. Other multinational corporations such as Monsanto, Chia Tai Group, KWS are also eyeing domestic key planting areas of corn, with their headed varieties.

What are the detailed stories of the above news? What impact will be brought to the domestic corn seed industry? How will Longping High-tech open the corn seed market?

Polysilicon Output in China Might Begin to Soar in 2015

It is certain that the prospect of polysilicon industry in China is bright, although it is still in the rising stage now, according to CCM’s 2nd edition report of China's Polysilicon Market in Solar Photovoltaic Industry published this August.

The report also points out that the year of 2015 is expected to be a turning point for PV industry, when gird parity of solar energy may really arrive and new economy balance may be retrieved, resulting in new round of prosperity of polysilicon industry. Consequently, polysilicon output in China may begin to soar in 2015.

The production capacity of polysilicon as of June 2011 is about 120,000t/a, with 310,000t/a planning capacity in 2013. The enthusiasm for production expansion keeps high in the next few years.

The output of polysilicon in China in 2010 is 47,971 tonnes, which may rise to 100,000 tonnes in 2013. The self-sufficiency rate of polysilicon consumption in China may climb to 70% in 2013 from 50% in 2010.

PV industry and polysilicon production are still at a rising stage but a promising future lies ahead. It is still relatively easy for new entrants to seize the market opportunity by using proper competition strategy, and the main threat comes from the risk of excessive capacity.

You might find more insightful ideas in CCM’s polysilicon report. The report also covers the following aspects:

-Basic situation of Chinese polysilicon industry

-Competition and cost

-Production routes

-I/E analysis

-Development trends

-Commercial opportunities and potential threats

-Effective competition strategy
