Posted: Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 8:00 PM CDT

Guangzhou, Guangdong -- (SBWire) -- 07/21/2011 --Shenghua Biok was criticized and forced to stop production due to environmental protection problem in June 2011, according to the latest issue of Herbicides China News released by CCM.

Shenghua Biok, founded in 1993, is one of the leading manufacturers and exporters specialized in bio-agrochemicals, medicaments for animal nutrition and health in China. Two plants were forced to suspend production by local government censorate for the sake of disqualification in environmental protection.

It can be observed that Chinese government and the public have paid more attention to environmental protection nowadays. Aiming to develop low-carbon economy in China, Chinese government has taken a series of effective actions to reduce pollution and energy consumption. In pesticide industry, some regulations on restricting pesticide registration, heightening industrial threshold, relocation into chemical parks, and abolishment of some pesticide rebates, etc. have already taken effect on balancing the production and integrating the industry.

In terms of Chinese pesticide companies, such as Shenghua Biok, even though the regulations will affect their production and sales to some degree, they will develop towards a health direction in the future after the revolution in pesticide industry. Take pesticide companies' relocation for example, centralized productions in chemical parks could not only meet environmental emission standard but also enjoy convenient transportation and transaction between cooperators in chemical parks.

Therefore, investors should consider environmental protection as the top issue if they want to invest pesticide companies in China.
