4.Analysis of formulation for both China and abroad

(1) For highly active pesticide,formulation are based on low-medium content.

For example,azoxystrobin,foreign companies are registered as 22.9%SC and 50%WDG,as well as cyhalofop-butyl,240g/L EC and 25% WDG, those are water-based kind or environmental friendly formulated.

 

They reason why they choose low content are as follows:

1.To sell in market in short time.

2.To leave room for the selection of solvent or adjuvant .

3.Considering the technical are highly active,low-medium are enough to have fully effectiveness .

 

(2) To retain some traditional formulation according to its characteristics.e.g. :

Besides  Pyraclostrobin WDG, Sygenta developed 250g/L EC with environment friendly solvent .

 

(3) More and more mixture are developed instead of single ones considering the cost, resistance and application range.

 

(4)China is weak in developing and registration,this is because lack of related technology.
