DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/92ngw6/herbicides_china) has announced the addition of the "Herbicides China News 1211" report to their offering.

The peak season of Chinese herbicide markets has come since Oct. 2012. From Oct. 2012, herbicide supply appears tense, such as diquat and paraquat, and prices of relevant products keep going up.

In Sept. 2012, the export volume of herbicides increased by 66.2% year on year and the total export volume of herbicides in the first three quarters increased by 21.2% year on year. Although the domestic herbicide market is prosperous, some products still witness a slack situation, such as diuron, whose price keeps descending all the year around.
