Abamectin is a groundbreaking biopesticide known for its high selectivity and exceptional safety profile. At standard application rates, it poses no risk to humans or animals, preserves beneficial insects, and maintains ecological balance. Recognized by the Ministry of Agriculture as a pollution-free alternative, abamectin is gaining attention as a sustainable solution in pest management. Globally, biopesticides and genetically modified technologies make up about 10% of the pesticide market, but in China, their share remains below 5%, indicating significant potential for growth.
With insecticidal activity up to 50 times greater than conventional pesticides, abamectin requires only 0.1 to 0.5 grams per mu (approximately 667 square meters), making it highly efficient. It targets a wide range of pests, including Diptera, Homoptera, Coleoptera, and Lepidoptera, and has been recommended as an alternative to highly toxic pesticides. The Ministry of Agriculture is currently evaluating its use in rice fields, which could lead to broader adoption in the future.
China's production capacity for abamectin surpassed 800 tons in 2005, with over 1,300 registered products from more than 400 companies. Among them, 14 were original drug registrants, and two companies achieved sales revenue exceeding 1 billion yuan. As awareness of abamectin's benefits grows among farmers, and with the removal of highly toxic pesticides from the market, demand for biological alternatives like abamectin is expected to surge.
Internationally, the EU re-registered 320 pesticides in 2003 and introduced the REACH regulations, emphasizing chemical safety. Japan’s "positive list" system favors biological products over chemical ones, further boosting the appeal of abamectin. Global sales of abamectin and its derivatives are projected to rise significantly in the coming years.
Due to its unique mode of action and effectiveness against pests, mites, and nematodes, abamectin has become a top choice for replacing toxic organophosphorus pesticides. In the U.S., ivermectin is used to control cotton nematodes, saving millions annually. Since 1995, China has exported 30–40% of global abamectin, with export volumes growing steadily.
As the market expands, more investors are entering the sector. In 2004, abamectin prices soared, prompting many companies to rush into production. However, a price war led to a decline in 2005. To remain competitive, manufacturers must focus not only on the domestic market but also on international opportunities, leveraging China's abundant raw materials and lower labor costs to boost exports.
