Driver
Increasing paraquat usage in countries such as U.S., Brazil, and India
Although paraquat is forbidden in some countries of Europe and China, it is still used in many other countries. It is widely used in the U.S. as farmers are dependent on genetically engineered Roundup-ready soybean crops. Weeds are becoming impervious to roundup herbicides that require farmers to use more powerful and more effective chemicals such as paraquat. Due to this, the demand for paraquat is increasing in the U.S
Market Opportunities
Increasing research by key companies to improve chemical functionalities
Increasing research by key companies to improve the chemical functionalities of pyridine and its derivatives, for increasing its uptake as agrochemicals products are projected to bring new market opportunities. For instance, companies such as Dow Agro Sciences LLC, FUJIYAKUHIN CO., LTD, are applying for patents for agrochemical pyridine compounds used in pesticides. Pyridine is widely used in the production of various agrochemical products such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides.
