On May 29, at the fourth session of the ninth session of the Council of the China Pesticide Industry Association, held in Yunnan, the China Pesticide Industry Association organized the drafting of the pesticide commodity two-code rules (draft for comments) to be released to the public. This rule is applicable to the information processing and exchange of commodities (goods, trade items, assets, locations, etc.) in all links of the pesticide logistics supply chain.It is understood that the QR code of pesticide commodities consists of seven information elements:The first is the enterprise code, which is derived from the enterprise code in the pesticide production approval certificate number and consists of five digits;The second is the commodity code, which is assigned by the enterprise to a specific object classification and consists of 4 digits. The numbering rules are formulated by the enterprise;The third is the packaging indicator. The packaging level 0 is the single product level. Usually, the default is 0, 1~9 is the packaging level;The fourth is the ingredient code, which is represented by five English letters. The first two digits indicate the major categories of pesticides, and the last three digits indicate the specific effective ingredients. The component code of the compound preparation is replaced by the component code with high content. When the content is the same, the sequence is determined by the first letter of the English common name;The fifth is the dosage form code, which is represented by the three-digit English abbreviation of pesticide dosage form. When the English abbreviation is 3 letters, the English abbreviation is directly used as the code, and when the English abbreviation is 2 letters, the English abbreviation+"0" is composed;The sixth is the toxicity code, which is represented by a decimal number. 1 indicates acute toxicity, 2 indicates high toxicity, 3 indicates moderate toxicity, 4 indicates low toxicity, and 5 indicates slight toxicity. Medium toxicity (high toxicity of technical drug) is marked as medium toxicity, and low toxicity (high toxicity of technical drug) is marked as low toxicity;Seven is the random serial number of goods. The serial number contains a continuous number, and the continuous number only contains numbers, which is represented by 15 decimal digits.Li Zhonghua, Secretary-General of China Pesticide Industry Association, said that the two-dimensional code of pesticide commodities provides the unique identification of pesticide industry in China for pesticide commodity objects, and one two-dimensional code only identifies one entity object. In addition, the QR code of pesticide commodities is also simple, scalable, confidential and safe.Source: Pesticide Industry Network

Foreign pesticide enterprises have set up key account managers and launched "The Way of Rice" and "More Rice" in the industry trend of land circulation and crop solutions. Why is there no progress in e-commerce? The author has communicated with a number of insiders in this field and gave a relatively consistent answer:1. With products, foreigners are indispensable to ordinary people, and there is no need to engage in e-commerce;2. Foreign enterprises are Westerners' ideas, which are very realistic: e-commerce has no soil in China's rural areas (smart terminals are not popular in rural areas, farmers do not understand the Internet, and farmers are too scattered to quickly educate), with large input and small output;3. Foreign enterprises have just learned to attach importance to the channel, and engaging in e-commerce may hit the channel confidence again, thus affecting sales. They can only bear to part with it. After all, they can't have multiple products with one certificate or operate with multiple brands like state-owned enterprises;4. Don't understand, just look first;There seems to be some truth in the above views, but most of them are known by Chinese people. Nobody knows what foreigners think. The author analyzes foreign enterprises from the seven-word policy of Internet thinking -- "focus, perfection, reputation and speed", and obtains a surprising result:1. Focus: Lei Jun said, "Focus is when you focus all your attention on one model and one product. In fact, the competitiveness is very strong. This is the pressure ability. Because there are few products, you know your products better than your peers.". FMC has achieved several times of growth since it took over "Park Haiin" from Bayer. Both FMC and Bayer have achieved a win-win situation, and the spirit of focus has produced value. In this way, foreign enterprises have Internet genes. The magic weapon for the development of domestic enterprises for many years - the multi-brand, multi-certificate and multi-specification model is no longer popular. They began to focus on brands, and the creation of explosives also confirmed the old ancestor's famous saying "less is more, more is less".2. Extreme: Dow's old product "Dasheng" continues to grow, which is inseparable from Dow's continuous exploration of product opportunities; Redomir's annual planning book has several pages in the single directory; Whether it is the experiment of multiple batches, multiple crops, and multiple regions before the new product is launched, or the label, poster, and PPT, every word and every picture should be improved. They have achieved the ultimate in their products and work, but they are often ridiculed by Chinese people for being too stupid and stupid. If the Chinese people still don't change their old style (when they go to the toilet, they will have a new product formula), it is really silly to talk about Internet thinking.3. Word of mouth: Foreign enterprises have been doing consumer education work (germination pots, small experiments, farmers' associations, and observation meetings) since they entered China. Foreign enterprises have achieved transcendence step by step through the participation of consumers and the spread of word of mouth, and their products have penetrated into the hearts of the people one by one. The price of expired products has been reduced by half, and the sales volume still cannot catch up with foreign enterprises. Why? It is not that the quality is poor. To a large extent, foreign enterprises have taken the lead in occupying the minds of farmers.4. Fast: Foreign enterprises are good at using resources (relying on the power of the government) and willing to spend money. As soon as the new product goes on the market, it will produce a sensational effect.Compared with the seven-word policy of Internet thinking, foreign pesticide enterprises are all Internet experts. The O2O model advocated by the Internet of Agricultural Means of Production stresses offline and online. Foreign enterprises have taken a step ahead of the Chinese people offline. If foreign enterprises use government relations and strong technology integration capabilities to integrate offline scattered user resources online, it will achieve the latter.Source: 191 agricultural means person

The spring of 2015 has come, but the warmth has not yet arrived. Under the new economic normal, many agricultural enterprises have felt the chill, but what you can foresee is just the tip of the iceberg: under the surging agricultural tide, "hidden reefs" are everywhere, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed. This article will reveal eight "dead ends" that agricultural enterprises must avoid in the next five years. Perhaps you are in the "dead end".1. Heavy assets and heavy liabilities: dragged to death by debt due to capacity expansionAgricultural enterprises are accustomed to the asset-heavy model: many listed or proposed listed enterprises spend most of their funds on building factories, expanding bases and purchasing equipment; Once some small and medium-sized enterprises make money or have difficulty in financing, they also immediately expand their scale and capacity. However, they have ignored the problems of overcapacity, repetitive construction and serious homogenization that have occurred in the whole industry, and are actually running into a "dead end" at a fast pace.In January this year, some media reported that Shandong Tulao Mao Animal Husbandry urgently needed funds to expand its scale, and the bank loan was difficult, so it had to borrow more than 2.6 million from the private sector. Now it has been dragged into the situation of auction plant and office building by this loan; Another enterprise, Ruite Farming and Animal Husbandry, also borrowed from the private sector because it could not borrow money from the bank when it expanded its scale. Its liabilities accumulated to more than 10 million yuan. Its head chose to "run" under the pressure of funds.In the past two years, agricultural enterprises have been unable to continue their operations. Auction plants and even the heads of enterprises have run away from time to time. As the main source of funds for agricultural enterprises, bank loans have been difficult to lend. With the increase of "bad debts", the threshold is becoming higher and higher, and some have even closed the channel. Therefore, when enterprises need funds for development, they will also turn to private lending, and a large number of asset-heavy and debt-heavy enterprises are born. It is not difficult to guess the outcome of this type of enterprise: it is dragged down or even dragged to death by debt.2. Superstition of the whole industrial chain: make the whole industrial chain into a "bracelet" and "shackle"Food is becoming more and more unsafe, and consumers are a little "talking about food color change". Therefore, in order to occupy the consumer highland, many enterprises have set their sights on the whole industrial chain model, claiming to control the whole process from the field to the table, from raw materials to commodities.However, the whole industry chain model looks beautiful, but it is not what all enterprises can do. It can be said that 95% of enterprises are not suitable for the whole industry chain! The whole industry chain of COFCO is crying out loud, but the profits are very low only because the stall is large; New Hope also said that it would take the road of full industrialization, but later it had to adjust and put more emphasis on specialization. Small and medium-sized enterprises can imagine that these large enterprises feel very difficult to do.To build the whole industrial chain, first of all, you should have the corresponding resources, secondly, you should have long-term accumulation, and finally you should have the ability to control the operation. If you want to be fat at one bite, you will break your stomach instead of being fat. The whole industrial chain is not only useless, but will dilute the scattered resources, even drag down the main business with original advantages, and become the "bracelet" and "shackle" of its own development.In fact, it is the whole industry chain investment (your capital is already limited) that will drag down SMEs, rather than the whole industry chain thinking, or supply chain awareness. On the contrary, enterprises should have this kind of thinking, because no matter where your enterprise is in the supply chain, in order to achieve the best products, you must control the entire supply chain. Therefore, you need to cooperate with upstream and downstream competitive enterprises, strengthen your core competitive advantages, and expand your voice in the whole supply chain, which is the "whole industry chain" that enterprises should pursue.3. Blind cross-border type: it is impossible to see the difficulty of cross-border and the high investmentWhy can Yunnan Baiyao succeed in making toothpaste? This is based on the gene of "Yunnan Baiyao" - "hemostasis and anti-inflammatory". It is natural to extend this gene to toothpaste, and it is connected very well. Therefore, the promotion cost, trust and acceptance time cost are reduced! However, Yunnan Baiyao's Yangyuanqing shampoo, facial mask, Qiancaotang bath gel and other products are struggling! Why? The value gene of "hemostasis and anti-inflammatory" cannot be relied on. Why didn't Wahaha succeed in making children's clothes and shopping malls? The reason is the same: Wahaha's existing gene - core competitiveness does not support or connect cross-border business!The layman cross-border agriculture will also encounter genetic problems. Some people may say that Lenovo's cross-border agriculture from PC business is not exactly reshaping its own genes? Why can't I? The author has to say, how many enterprises in China are as large as Lenovo? Large size means large investment. Even if we take a step back, Lenovo has more advantages than other enterprises in addition to its large investment in agriculture: with the help of economists such as Zhou Qiren to do the top-level design, establish the Jiawo Group and operate independently, and have a special leader, Chen Shaopeng, who knows more about enterprise and enterprise management than many Chinese enterprises... Even so, Lenovo has invested 1 billion yuan in fruit business and will continue to invest 2-3 billion yuan, He said there would be no big profit in 10 years.When we look at Ding Lei's pigs and Wanda's vegetables, we also reflect the difficulty of crossing borders and the deep-rooted nature of genes. Since 2009, few people have seen Ding Lei's pigs. NetEase has clearly stated that "we have overestimated ourselves and the problems faced in pig breeding. Agriculture is really a new field for NetEase"; It has been three or four years since Wanda began to grow vegetables. It seems that there is no news of Wanda in the Jianghu.Agriculture is not Tang Seng's meat. Anyone can eat it. Due to the existence of genes and the limitations of enterprises' own conditions, enterprises that want to cross border agriculture need to make adequate preparations: psychological preparation for long-term investment; Adequate financial preparation; The preparation of top-level design, development path planning, resources and team allocation cannot be based on imagination alone, nor can old experience be copied into new fields.Those enterprises (especially small and medium-sized enterprises) whose original core competitiveness is not connected with agriculture at all, have not figured out the development mode and path, and have blindly crossed the border, if they still hold the mentality of surviving by chance and do not want to change, they will surely die because of the difficulty and high investment in crossing the border.4. Multiple children and multiple grandchildren: the more products, the faster they dieWhether there are core star products to break through the market has a direct impact on the rise and fall of enterprises and the future. According to statistics, among the top 500 enterprises in the world, 140 enterprises, accounting for 28%, account for more than 95% of the total sales; 194 leading products accounted for 70% - 95% of the total sales, accounting for 38.8%; 146 related products accounted for 70% of the total sales, accounting for 29.2%; And unrelated diversified enterprises are rare. The more products, the better is obviously a huge mistake.After contacting a large number of domestic agricultural industrialization enterprises, Fulai found a common rule: the smaller the enterprise, the more ideas; The lower the output value, the more products, and the more trademarks, the more brands. Many enterprises may have less than one hundred million, but there are five or six trademarks in the market, which are also called "many children and many blessings", and try to seize the market as much as possible.The author has always advocated that big is small and small is big; Fast is slow, and slow is fast. "More children and more grandchildren" is definitely not equal to "eugenics". It's a pity that many enterprises can't understand this dialectical logic and still adhere to the product idea of "sprinkle pepper noodles everywhere". You may never see their shadow after five years.5. There are customers who don't use the house type: the ladder is removed by the "customer", but the "user" can't be reachedMany enterprises in the agricultural field are raw materials, such as honeysuckle planting enterprises, which provide raw materials for Wang Laoji, Jiaduobao and other herbal tea enterprises; Potato planting enterprises provide raw materials for potato chip enterprises such as Leshi and Shanghao. In addition, there are some primary processing B2B enterprises and some export-oriented enterprises. These enterprises have one thing in common: they do not directly face users - consumers, but only deal with customers.However, with the upgrading of food safety issues, and due to the control of the entire industrial chain, from raw material planting to initial product processing, "customer" enterprises began to extend to the upstream of the industrial chain: Leshi has established potato planting bases in Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Guangxi and other places; I think you have built 8000 mu of raw material base, of which 6000 mu are in Xinjiang; Jiaduobao also began to build a raw material base; Even e-commerce brands such as Three Squirrels are working upstream to control the source of products.When "customers" start to grab your business, you become without customers, and you don't have the experience and ability to face users directly. Can the business be maintained? It's difficult. Even if the "customer" has not grabbed your business for the time being, under the increasingly fierce market competition, under the pressure of cost, the customer will also choose a cheaper supplier. At this time, you will face the fate of being eliminated at any time.Some enterprises have realized the crisis, but either the determination and courage to change are not strong enough, or they move slowly or even stop. If they go on like this, they will inevitably die.6. Destroyed by "nuclear submarine": invisible to the enemyThe sad way to die may be to die in a murky way. Even the opponent's tactics and routines are not clear.Now, dear agricultural enterprises, your competitors are very complex.Golden arowana has not only made edible oil but also developed into the rice flour business. The original rice flour enterprise is easily reduced to "small fish"; Shuanghui has begun to expand its product structure and acquire Australian beef processing enterprises, which has a predictable impact on domestic beef enterprises; Even Hershey, which focuses on chocolate, has just acquired a beef jerky enterprise, which may have an impact on the original domestic enterprises in the future.There is also a giant like Lenovo: with strong modern capital, concept, team and management level, it is committed to the industrialization of agricultural products such as blueberries, kiwi fruit and tea. While promoting the progress of the industry, it will also be inevitable to "hurt" a large area of the same kind. Evergrande's agricultural development also belongs to this category, and its impact cannot be ignored.In addition, the No. 1 document in 2015 clearly proposes to deepen the reform of the two major systems of agricultural reclamation and supply and marketing. As we all know, these two systems have a large number of agricultural resources. Once the reform is deepened, they will further release market competitiveness and pose a threat to other agricultural enterprises.In addition to strong domestic rivals, many of them are also scattered abroad: the implementation of the "the Belt and Road" strategy will bring agricultural products from many countries around the world to China; The signing of China-Australia Free Trade Agreement and other agreements is conducive to the export of Australian beef and other foreign products to China. These will obviously have an impact on domestic enterprises.These opponents are like "nuclear submarines" sunk under the sea. If you can't understand their moves and routines, once they launch an attack, you will have no strength to fight back.7. Regional public brand: "lingering" in others' troubled watersRegional public brand means that the trademark owner does not belong to a certain enterprise, but belongs to a local government or industry association. In the early stage of its establishment, such a brand was built with the help of government or industry resources. Everyone invested heavily, enthusiasm was high, and effectiveness was relatively fast. However, such a brand also had inherent difficulties: the day when the brand was built and effective was the time when the problem occurred. The "hot" Yangcheng Lake hairy crab in recent years is a good example.The brand "Yangcheng Lake" was registered as a trademark by the Suzhou Crab Industry Association and is the actual owner of the trademark. Crab farmers are scattered farmers. The association does not operate specifically. The brand owner and product operator are actually in a split state. Every year, the authentic Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs have not been caught yet, and the fake Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs have been sold in major supermarkets. The number of fake crabs is more than 5 to 10 times that of real crabs. Even with more legal means, the use of "Yangcheng Lake" cannot be blocked, because such a generic name enterprise can not monopolize it.Another regional public brand, Wuchang Rice, is also plagued by problems: after the country became famous, counterfeiters continued to be exposed by the media, and the industry was fully injured. Obviously, this is not the original intention of brand, let alone the success of brand operation.At present, there are still many enterprises that do not fully understand the necessity and urgency of building their own brands. They cling to the public brand, which has no "root", and inevitably make a wedding dress for those who fish in troubled waters. After several injuries, these enterprises may also be discouraged and discouraged.8. Policy investment model: it is difficult to continue to "make a profit" by ignoring market rulesIn recent years, the state has increased its support for agriculture in a very direct way - compared with real estate, energy and other industries, the state's agricultural subsidies for agriculture are real gold and silver directly paid to the account. Because it is real gold and silver, it has become the "Tang Monk meat" of a group of opportunists. Everyone wants to bite it.In order to get subsidies, some enterprises even make customized application plans. It is conceivable that enterprises that rush to launch agricultural projects in order to obtain the funds for benefiting farmers do not start from market demand and lack the motivation for serious management. Such enterprises will soon encounter development problems.More importantly, the central government has recognized that the use of agricultural subsidies is too extensive - no return, no tracking, lack of supervision, and low efficiency. Therefore, in the No. 1 central document of 2014, it has clearly proposed that "we should improve the accuracy and directivity of agricultural subsidies". In this way, those enterprises that focus on policies, "catch the mayor" and ignore management and operation will not last long.Author: Lou Xiangpeng, source: Shennong Island, ID: sndfly

"Come and see the plane!" On the morning of June 18, the north corn field of Jinjiapo Village in Hengshui Town was crowded with villagers who came to see the excitement. It turns out that two unmanned helicopters purchased by villager Zhang Xiaoning are flying here. According to Zhang Xiaoning, he bought an unmanned helicopter for farming. This year, agricultural aircrafts are included in the scope of agricultural machinery subsidies. Zhang Xiaoning wants to take advantage of the opportunity of national subsidies to buy aircraft to serve farmers in their own and surrounding needs.20 mu of pesticide can be sprayed in 15 minutesAn unmanned helicopter slowly flew up at the village head of Jinjiapo Village, Hengshui Town, and saw the plane moving fast, turning slowly, flying fast, and diving down... The crowd at the scene were all staring at the plane with their necks up. After a few skilled movements of the staff, the plane hovered steadily in the air from 2 meters to 3 meters above the ground. At this time, there was a burst of applause at the scene, and the crowd was excited to shout "Fly!" This was the scene of the test flight of the plane purchased by Zhang Xiaoning, a villager of Jinjiapo Village, Hengshui Town, at about 10 a.m. on June 18."Generally, the pesticide can be sprayed in 15 minutes for crops of about 20 mu." The staff who came to the test flight of the aircraft said that the total length of the aircraft fuselage is 2.2 meters, the length of the large oar is 2 meters, the total weight of the empty aircraft is 16 kilograms, the large takeoff load is 14 kilograms, the flight height of the aircraft is generally between 2 meters and 3 meters, and the speed is 4 meters per second. The daily operation load is about 10kg. "The plane is very good, I am very satisfied." After the test flight was successful, Zhang Xiaoning said with a smile, "It is still high technology, but efficiency is high."Aircraft operation is popular"The purpose of buying aircraft is to cultivate land." Zhang Xiaoning said that agricultural aircraft was included in the scope of agricultural machinery subsidies this year, and he decided to "taste fresh". In recent years, Zhang Xiaoning rented 15 mu of land from the village and established Xiaoning Crop Planting Farmers' Professional Cooperative. In order to improve efficiency, he "stared" at the unmanned helicopter during an investigation. "The scene was too shocking. It took less than 4 hours to spray more than 1000 mu of wheat and complete the four planes." Zhang Xiaoning said that after returning to Linzhou, he submitted an application form to the relevant units. Until June 18, after the approval of the relevant units, Zhang Xiaoning's plane was finally bought back. According to Yang Yang, a staff member at the scene, 40 unmanned helicopters have been sold in Anyang this year."In addition to the use of my own cooperative, I can also work in other places or local areas and earn income." When the plane is bought back, Zhang Xiaoning also has his own plan. While serving the people in Linzhou, he plans to develop his own business in Neihuang and Huaxian. Zhang Xiaoning is full of confidence in his "aircraft business".(Article source: Anyang.com - Anyang Evening News)

On September 12, the "Sixth China Pesticide High-level Forum" sponsored by the China Pesticide Development and Application Association was held in Dalian, Liaoning Province. Experts attending the meeting said that the pesticide industry is currently facing several opportunities. First, the unified control of pests and diseases; Second, the reform of management mechanism; Third, the creation of pesticides.At present, the major innovation in the pesticide industry is undoubtedly the strong promotion of the specialized unified control of pests and diseases. Ye Zhenqin, director of the Department of Plant Management of the Ministry of Agriculture, believes that modern plant protection is mainly reflected in new pesticides and new plant protection machinery. Although China has suffered from extreme natural disasters such as "flood in the north and drought in the south" this year, it is precisely because of the rapid development of the pesticide industry that drives the implementation of modern plant protection technology and unified prevention and control, and ensures that agricultural diseases and insect pests are effectively controlled. Summer grain has achieved the goal of increasing production. From the current situation, autumn grain is growing well, and these achievements are closely related to the reform, innovation and development of pesticides.As for the management reform of pesticide industry, Sui Pengfei, director of the Pesticide Inspection Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture, believes that it is necessary to systematically design, actively promote and pay attention to the timeliness. The management departments and enterprises should fully trust each other, clarify the main position of the government, enterprises and the masses, and the government and enterprises should have the same goals. At present, the main work of the Institute for Drug Control is to promote the introduction of the new pesticide management regulations. However, enterprises should not wait for the introduction of the regulations to reform and innovate, but should greet the introduction of the new regulations with the attitude of reform and innovation. After all, the regulations themselves are backward; Pesticide registration and regulatory measures should be highly consistent; Actively formulate special registration policies for small crops and promote the registration of small crops; Make statistics and sort out the annual spot check results, and resolutely revoke the registration of illegal products; Coordinate and solve the relationship between pesticides and hazardous chemicals; We are actively investigating the differentiated management of enterprises and implementing different management policies between large and small enterprises.Domestic scientists have done a lot of work in the creation of pesticides. Qian Xuhong, an academician of the CAE Member and president of East China University of Science and Technology, suggested that in the past, pesticide development only focused on performance rather than impact, but with food safety, environmental pollution and other issues prominent, pesticide reform should focus not only on performance but also on impact. China's pesticide industry has great potential advantages and countermeasures, that is: division of labor and cooperation, innovation alliance. In recent years, the state has increased its support for newly created pesticides, paid more attention to the research of pesticide formulations, and accelerated the promotion of green industrial technology. There are more than 2000 pesticide production enterprises in China. If these enterprises can reform, break through and innovate, and establish independent alliances, the development of China's pesticide industry will enter a new stage.Liu Jian, counselor of the State Council and president of the China Pesticide Development and Application Association, said that the pesticide high-level development forum had been held for five consecutive sessions and was widely praised by the industry. This was mainly due to the strong pertinence of the topics of each forum, summarizing the early development of the pesticide industry, grasping the current development situation and analyzing the future development direction. The forum was attended by leaders and experts from the industry, as well as more than 400 people from sales, research and development, management and other fields.Source: World Agrochemical Network

In order to encourage scientific and technological innovation of domestic enterprises and accelerate the introduction of new pesticide products, the re-registration requirements of pesticide products may be increased. This is undoubtedly a challenge for domestic enterprises with traditional pesticides as the leading products. This is the information that the reporter got from the fifth "Hansheng Cup" agrochemical product manager (crop manager) exchange meeting on September 25.According to Ji Ying, chief agronomist of the Pesticide Control Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture, pesticide management agencies in developed countries have complete pesticide registration and re-evaluation systems. A product will be re-evaluated in 10-15 years to determine whether it is harmful to the environment and health, and whether its resistance increases. The registration regulations clearly stipulate that the re-registration requirements are more stringent after 15 years. The input-output ratio, remaining market share and security guarantee are all factors that need to be carefully considered when enterprises re-register products, which urges enterprises to spend more energy on new product development. At present, China has no relevant system for this, resulting in many products and registration certificates of domestic enterprises, but the level is not high. There are many old products and few new products, especially fewer products with independent intellectual property rights. In order to speed up the elimination of old products and promote the birth of new products, we have set up a new Pesticide Re-registration Evaluation Office this year. We hope that enterprises can get some inspiration from it and take some measures in the future.Although the re-registration requirements of traditional pesticides may be improved, traditional pesticides are still the leading products in the market, and there is still a large market space in the future. Yuan Huizhu, a researcher at the Institute of Plant Protection of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, believes that since 2009, there have been more than 30 mergers and acquisitions involving pesticides among major international companies. From the mergers and acquisitions, it can be seen that while traditional large companies focus on biological fungicides, natural enemies and other new pesticides, some traditional pesticides, such as dimethoate, carbaryl, monocrotophos, also receive attention, which shows that old products still have their market position and cannot be given up easily.It is understood that traditional pesticides are still the pillar products of most domestic enterprises at this stage, and the improvement of pesticide re-registration requirements is undoubtedly a new challenge for domestic enterprises. Luo Laichen, manager of marketing department of Jilin Bada Pesticide Co., Ltd., said that the improvement of pesticide re-registration requirements is conducive to the development of domestic pesticide industry. Enterprises have also been investing a lot of energy in scientific research to develop new products. However, the development of new products has certain difficulties. Even if relevant policies are issued in the future and the re-registration requirements are improved, enterprises should register old products in strict accordance with the policies.

The land transfer will change the existing sales model of "manufacturer+planter" or "manufacturer+professional organization+planter".Pesticide enterprises have realized that with the rapid advancement of land transfer, family farms and service organizations, it will not only change the sales mode of pesticides in the future, but also accelerate the integration of pesticide industries. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is still difficult for pesticide production enterprises to directly connect with large farmers. The situation of "thunder and rain are small, but flowers do not bear fruit" is widespread. The proportion of pesticide enterprises to connect with large farmers is less than 1%, and the majority of pesticide enterprises basically follow the original mode of sales.For the reasons, first of all, enterprises are worried about potential risks, including the credit risk of large farmers and the risk of drug damage. In the traditional pesticide sales model, farmers are connected with grass-roots dealers, and everyone is familiar with each other, which reduces the risk of credit. However, if enterprises directly credit large farmers, the risk of payment collection will increase. In addition, once pesticide damage occurs in the process of pesticide application, the risk of large investors is higher than that of retail investors. Secondly, in connection with large farmers, pesticide enterprises lack corresponding technical service teams, and are also worried about affecting existing sales channels. In addition, the connection between enterprises and large enterprises is still in its infancy, and there is a lack of successful experience models for reference.With the acceleration of land transfer and the continuous emergence of large farmers, social professional organizations will be born, such as professional organizations in the fields of medicine, fertilization, cultivation and harvest, agricultural product processing, technical services, trade, etc. These professional organizations will have an impact on the pesticide market. The sales model of the pesticide market will also change, and there may be a new model of "manufacturers+growers" or "manufacturers+professional organizations+growers". As a result of the pesticide industry, the number of channels has been greatly reduced, the number of manufacturers has been greatly reduced, and large-scale industrial integration will occur.How do pesticide enterprises connect with large farmers? Agricultural enterprises not only need to establish professional teams, but also need to change the sales model from sales to service. We can regard the existing channel as a distribution platform, divide the product sales area, pay a certain fee, and sign a tripartite contract, which can not only "ship out", but also share risks.In addition, the products should be suitable for the needs of large customers, such as large packaging. Deal with the relationship between planter product brands and existing brands. Enterprise brands may be more than product brands, and key products can also be brands.Editor's note: This year's No. 1 central document clearly stated that we should vigorously support new agricultural business entities such as professional large households, family farms and farmers' cooperatives. At the current agrochemical product manager (crop manager) exchange meeting, the countermeasures of pesticide marketing under the new situation became a hot topic of attention. Many of the experts and business leaders who attended the meeting also carried out reports on this topic. (Source: rural public)

For an enterprise, innovation seeks development, of course, pesticide enterprises are no exception.China's pesticide industry started in the 1980s. For more than 20 years, most pesticide factories started by repackaging foreign products. In the past 10 years, China's pesticide industry has started to take the road of innovation, from less than 800000 tons in 2002 to more than 1.6 million tons in the first half of 2013. Although the development of China's pesticide industry has made gratifying achievements, the author believes that at present, the industry has entered an era of reform, innovation, transformation and upgrading.After more than 30 years of development, China's pesticide industry has entered a peak period. In terms of product types, Chinese pesticide enterprises have been able to produce all pesticide technical drugs except for some varieties protected by patents; From the perspective of pesticide preparation level, pesticides manufactured in China are gradually narrowing the gap between China and the world's pesticide powers; From the perspective of marketing level, Chinese-made pesticides have spread all over the world's agrochemical markets and become the mainstream supplier in many markets.Environmental pollution is currently a major obstacle to the development of the pesticide industry. This year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology started from the hot glyphosate products in recent years, and promoted environmental protection pilot in the pesticide industry, which was unanimously recognized by the pesticide industry. According to Pesticide Net, at present, 10% of glyphosate production equipment in China is seriously substandard, and the pollution discharge is serious. It is certain that it will be eliminated in this environmental protection inspection. The industry believes that this environmental protection inspection is a big "red envelope" for the regular pesticide production enterprises. Sun Shubao, president of China Pesticide Industry Association, believes that environmental protection inspection is a rectification for glyphosate industry, and also a means to improve glyphosate's current serious overcapacity. In the future, it will be gradually carried out on other products to continuously promote industrial integration, which is also one of the means of industrial merger and reorganization.In addition to the trend of environmental protection, the current changes in domestic planting patterns, the reduction of corporate credibility, and the unbearable plight of dealers are not conducive to the healthy development of the pesticide industry. At the 6th Pesticide High-level Forum, experts put forward the idea of "reform, innovation and development", pooled their ideas to seek the development way of the future pesticide industry and found some methods: in pesticide management, reform the existing management mode, implement differentiated management for enterprises, and clarify who can sell pesticides; In pesticide management, it is proposed to build an e-commerce platform to gradually replace the traditional sales model; In terms of enterprise services, in view of the current situation that rural cooperatives are gradually expanding and becoming the mainstream trend, we actively advocate that pesticide enterprises directly connect with large farmers and reduce circulation links. Both industry experts and enterprise leaders agree to implement comprehensive reform and innovation in pesticide management and operation to improve the popularity of pesticide enterprises, improve the credibility of the pesticide industry and improve the transparency of pesticide operation.Inadequate pesticide creation has always been a hard problem for domestic pesticide enterprises, because China's pesticide industry started late, the level of research and development is backward, and there is a gap between scientific research and achievement transformation. China's lack of pesticide innovation capacity has led to many products being expired by foreign enterprises. Many Chinese enterprises are staring at expired patents. Once they wait for expired patents, they will rush in, which is easy to cause overcapacity. On July 16, seven academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences jointly reported to the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the relevant ministries and commissions of the State Council, proposing to strengthen the national pesticide innovation and application. This has undoubtedly given a boost to the creation of pesticides, which has attracted attention from the national level, and will greatly help the rapid and stable development of the entire pesticide industry.The environmental protection wind of China's pesticide industry can effectively purify the pesticide industry, which is a basic policy. In order to cooperate with the upcoming new pesticide management regulations, new marketing models and the country's guidance on pesticide research and innovation, China's pesticide industry has reached the critical point of innovation.

No. 1 document of ecological agriculture warming up or subsidy degradable agricultural filmAccording to the convention, the annual Central Rural Work Conference will be held in December. The industry generally expects that the theme of this year's "No.1 Document" is ecological agriculture. During the two sessions of this year, the "No. 1 proposal" is the "green agriculture" proposed by the Central Committee of the Jiu San Society, which proposes to strengthen the purchase of waste agricultural film and implement subsidies for farmers to purchase degradable agricultural film. The feedback and implementation of the CPPCC proposal is an important part of the government's work. Under the background of "No.1 Document" focusing on ecological agriculture, the subsidy policy for degradable agricultural film will play a huge role in promoting the industry once implemented.Proposal 1 focuses on degradable agricultural filmDuring the two sessions in March this year, the "No.1 Proposal" of the CPPCC was determined as the "Proposal on Strengthening the Development of Green Agriculture" proposed by the Central Committee of the Jiu San Society.It is understood that the current agricultural development model in most areas of China is still extensive, with prominent problems such as large consumption of resources, serious waste and intensified pollution. First, the waste of fresh water resources is very serious. Due to the imperfect irrigation facilities, the average utilization coefficient of farmland irrigation level in China is only 0.46, far lower than the level of 0.7-0.8 in developed countries; Second, the energy utilization rate is low, about 30% of large agricultural machinery and 50% of small machinery are still in use beyond the retirement period; Third, the pollution is becoming more and more serious. According to the typical survey and positioning monitoring conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture in recent years, the heavy metal pollution area of cultivated land in China is more than 16%, among which the situation is quite serious in the surrounding areas of large cities and industrial and mining areas.The Central Committee of the Jiusan Society believes that to solve the above problems, the extensive agricultural development model must be changed as soon as possible. It is suggested to accelerate the development of projects such as soil testing and formula fertilization, increase the proportion of organic fertilizer, strengthen the purchase of waste agricultural film, implement subsidies for farmers to purchase degradable agricultural film, vigorously promote water-saving projects, and adopt policies to support water-saving production and water-saving technology.After the proposal "on strengthening the development of green agriculture" submitted by the Central Committee of the Jiusan Society became the "0001" proposal of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference this year, the use of degradable agricultural film to reduce farmland pollution and other topics became the focus of market attention.It is difficult to degrade and recycle agricultural filmThe use of plastic film in Xinjiang, Shandong, Hebei and Gansu, the major provinces of plastic film use in China, has been increasing in recent years. Taking Gansu as an example, in 2010, the double-ridge and furrow seeding technology achieved a film coverage area of 6.96 million hectares, other crops coverage area of 530000 hectares, the use of various agricultural plastic films reached 100000 tons, and the annual production of waste agricultural films reached more than 80000 tons.The thickness of domestic agricultural mulch film is only 0.006~0.008 mm, which is far lower than that of foreign countries. This reduces the production cost and also reduces the tensile strength of mulch film, which brings difficulties to the later mechanized recovery. The current recycling of waste agricultural film is mainly manual collection, and the mechanized recovery rate of waste agricultural film is less than 15%.At present, the recovery effect of agricultural plastic film is not ideal. The reasons are as follows: firstly, due to the different planting methods in different regions, there are great differences in the mechanized recycling machines and tools for waste agricultural film, and the regional applicability is poor; Second, the recovery efficiency of waste agricultural film is low; Third, there is insufficient understanding of the hazards of waste agricultural film residues. The treatment methods are also relatively backward: first, on-site treatment. Because the recovery of residual film is mostly manual, the recovery is not complete and the work efficiency is not high. The collected plastic film is mostly on-site treatment, which is stacked on the ridge or field road, and no longer ignored; The second is incineration. The waste agricultural film and weeds or straw collected are burned on the ground, which not only pollutes the environment again, but also causes great waste of resources.In response, some local governments have issued and standardized relevant regulations on agricultural film recycling. At the first meeting of the Standing Committee of the Fifth People's Congress of Hainan Province this year, the Regulations on the Quality and Safety of Agricultural Products in Hainan Province were reviewed and passed, and came into force on June 1. According to the regulations, agricultural producers shall timely remove and recycle agricultural films and other agricultural input packaging materials. At present, Gansu has gradually formed a waste plastic film recycling and utilization network with three links of farmers' picking up, network recycling and enterprise processing, which support and constrain each other. Gansu supports the establishment of a number of waste plastic film recycling and processing enterprises to promote the recycling, processing and reuse of waste plastic film and waste plastic products in surrounding areas according to the use and pollution of plastic film in various regions; Set up waste plastic film recycling stations (points) in villages and towns to facilitate farmers to sell; Carry out the work of "replacing old with new" in combination with film subsidies.
