China is the largest generic pesticides producer in the world, producing four kinds of SDHI fungicides at present: boscalid, thifluzamide, carboxin and flutolanil. In addition, some SDHI fungicides will be off patent in the next decade, such as fluxapyroxad, bixafen, penflufen, sedaxane, benzovindiflupyr, etc. China’s SDHI fungicides industry will have fast development in
the next decade.
