Recently, the profit pressure faced by the chemical industry in Latin America has attracted widespread attention. Industry insiders generally point out that excessive imports have become a key factor dragging down the industry's profitability. Under the dual impact of oversupply and low-price trends in the global chemical market, Latin America's petrochemical industry is trapped in a vicious circle of "shrinking local production capacity, continuous surge in imports, and compressed profit margins". Its path to breaking the deadlock requires both short-term protection and long-term transformation.

The "Chemical Reaction" of Latin America's Agrochemical Market Under Free Trade Agreements

As a core region for global leading agricultural production and exports, Latin America has emerged as a key player in the agrochemical industry. The region's agricultural development is highly dependent on chemical crop protection products such as insecticides and herbicides. These inputs not only serve as the core support for ensuring food security and increasing yields but also directly determine the international competitiveness of agricultural products. Against this backdrop, the impact of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) on the import and export of agrochemicals has become increasingly prominent. The interaction between tariff regulation, agreement frameworks, and market demand is profoundly reshaping regional trade flows and supply chain structures. From a trade perspective, the Latin American market exhibits two distinct characteristics: first, it is highly dependent on imports. Even though countries like Brazil and Argentina have a certain degree of domestic production capacity, they still rely on suppliers from China, India, the United States, and Europe for key technical raw materials and specific formulations. Second, there are significant regional differences. Different trade blocs such as the Southern Common Market (Mercosur), the Pacific Alliance (PA), and others have established multi-level tariff and market access mechanisms, which directly lead to differences in import costs and competitive structures among various countries.

New Measures for Regulating Pesticide Export Management - Consultation on the Regulations for Registration of Pesticides for Overseas Use Only

As a key input for agricultural production, the quality, safety and trade regulation of pesticides are not only related to the development of the agricultural industry, but also involve the ecological environment and public health. To further strengthen the management of pesticide exports and promote the high-quality development of the industry, on November 3, 2025, the Crop Production Management Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs officially issued the "Letter on Soliciting Opinions on the Regulations for the Registration of Pesticides for Overseas Use Only" in accordance with the relevant requirements of the "Pesticide Administration Regulations" and the "Measures for the Administration of Pesticide Registration", and publicly solicited opinions from the society. This measure marks that the registration management of pesticides for overseas use only in China will enter a more systematic and standardized new stage, providing clear guidance for the compliant development of pesticide export trade.

Brazil's Plant Protection Market: Breaking the Oligopoly Cocoon and Blooming into a Diverse Landscape

In the global agricultural input market landscape, the transformation of Brazil's plant protection market over the past 15 years can be described as a profound "revolution". From an oligopolistic structure firmly controlled by multinational giants to a diverse competitive ecosystem co-driven by the generic drug wave and biological innovation, registration data outlines not only the growth curve of product quantity but also a clear trajectory of the restructuring of market power. This transformation has enabled Brazil to completely bid farewell to the era of monopoly by a few enterprises and develop into a mature market with both vitality and resilience.

Behind the Judicial Protection of a Chinese-Controlled Brazilian Agricultural Enterprise: Industry Crisis and Breakthrough Attempts

On October 10, 2024, a preventive measure issued by the Londrina Court in northern Paraná, Brazil, brought Belagrícola, a major Brazilian agricultural input distributor controlled by the Chinese-owned Pengdu Group, into the public spotlight. This enterprise, which boasts 52 retail branches and controls a storage capacity of 1.5 million tons, was granted 60 days of judicial protection, suspending payments to creditors and grain pricing agreements with farmers. This move is not a sign of the enterprise's collapse, but an emergency response amid an industry-wide systemic crisis. It not only reflects the deep-seated predicaments of Brazil's agricultural input distribution industry but also demonstrates the enterprise's attempts to break through by leveraging its asset advantages.

Strengthening Seedling Pest and Disease Control to Lay a Solid Foundation for Winter Rape Harvest

Since the middle and late September this year, the combined impact of the "West China Autumn Rain" and autumn floods has led to persistently high soil moisture in the main winter rape - producing areas such as Southwest China and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. This has created favorable conditions for the occurrence and spread of various pests and diseases, including seedling blight (root rot), damping - off disease, and cabbage leaf beetle. The seedling stage is a crucial foundation - laying period for the growth and development of winter rape, and the effectiveness of pest and disease control directly affects the subsequent growth, yield, and quality of the crop. To accurately respond to the current pest and disease control situation and consolidate the foundation for a good rape harvest, the National Agricultural Technology Extension and Service Center has specially formulated and issued the Technical Guidance on Pest and Disease Control for Autumn - sown Winter Rape Seedlings in 2025, providing scientific control guidance for growers in the producing areas.
