Abstract
This report is the third in a set of three investigating the current state of
the generic pesticide industry and market.
This first report contains profiles of 100 of the most important generic
pesticide companies in the world today. The second report contains profiles of
100 of the most important generic pesticide ais. The third report provides a
detailed analysis of the generic pesticide market and industry, and explores
the forces that will drive the development of the generic pesticide industry
over the next few years. These three reports are updated editions of reports
on the generic pesticide industry that Agrow published first in 1998 and then,
as new editions, in 2001 and 2005.
This third report contains an analysis of the generic pesticide market and
industry, building on the information presented in the first two reports. It
includes a complete update on significant changes in the global market since
the previous publication in 2005. It provides a review of the major national
generic pesticide markets and a discussion of the various business strategies
adopted by generic pesticide companies, both in terms of competing with each
other and with the major R&D-based agrochemical companies. The report also
contains an analysis of the ways in which the major agrochemical companies try
to maintain their market share after an ai has come offpatent, including
finding ways to delay the manufacture of the ai by generic pesticide
companies. The report also contains a review of future generic pesticide
targets.
The report explores the current and future forces driving the development of
the generic pesticide industry. Such forces include: the consolidation of the
agrochemical industry and the associated divestment of pesticide products and
businesses; patent issues, especially data protection; ai re-registration
initiatives in the EU and US, and the forced withdrawal of certain generic ais
in these markets; and the efforts of industry associations.
