Expira o registro do Paraquat na China

On the 25th September 2018, the only paraquat registration in China expired.

In 2013, Nanjing Red Sun was granted full registration of paraquat 20% GW effective for a period of 5 years, which is due on the 25th September 2018, thereafter production of paraquat 20% GW is terminated. Yet the product made before that date can still be sold and used within the valid period (2 years) until the 25th September 2020.

It is at present time unclear about availability of substitution for paraquat after paraquat is totally delisted from the market. It should be noted that the user’s deep impression of paraquat’s efficacy, fast action, especially its high price performance ratio will impose great challenge to other substitutes if their prices are higher and effect are not as good as paraquat.
