Oil prices have shown a rapid growth from 2001 to 2008, driving the propane prices above the expectations and reducing propane’s effectiveness in many competitive markets. Oil prices in the world are also likely to continue with high volatility in the market. The propane industry had to take advantage to solidify existing markets with relatively low world oil prices. Consequently, the propane market has to deal with the consequences of higher prices to develop new markets. 


The prices for propane are changing more rapidly than for electricity and natural gas. These rapid changes in propane prices will influence consumer perceptions about propane, which will in turn increase the level of uncertainty and risk associated with choosing propane. The propane hedging program, will help in minimizing the volatility and reducing the negate impact of price volatility on consumers. Propane-fueled engines produce less air pollution than gasoline engines. Hydrocarbon emissions are 30% to 62% lower in propane fueled engines. 

The demand of propane market wedges is expected to add more than 500 million gallons per years by 2018 if the opportunities in this market are fully realized. In 2010, 8.4 million residential households consume about 5 billion gallons per year of fuel oil for heating up their homes, which is equivalent to about 7.5 billion gallons of propane. The households in North-eastern U.S., primarily in the New England states, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania consumed 80 % of propane.

Glyphosate is the non-selective, broad spectrum herbicide. It is the useful to kill most of the perennial plants including sedges, grasses, broad-leaved weeds and woody plants. Glyphosate inhibits the enzymes involved in the synthesis of aromatic amino acids including tyrosine, tryptophan, and phenylalanine. Plants absorb it through the foliage and transfer it to the growing points of the plants thus it is effective against actively growing plants. 


The demand for Glyphosate is booming since last two decade. With the increase in planting area of transgenic crops and increase in bio-fuel projects in a number of countries worldwide, the demand for glyphosate has constantly increased since last many years. It is the largest selling agrochemical product across the world. 

Globally glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in terms of volume. It has applications in horticulture, agriculture, viticulture, silviculture and garden maintenance. Moreover they are also use in many cities to clear the sidewalks, streets and railway tracks. The global demand for Glyphosate is expected to double in next five year as farmers switch to less labor intensive agricultural methods. In 2012 Asia Pacific dominated the glyphosate market, accounted for the largest share in terms of volume. 

The growth in the market was led by Asia Pacific and is expected to be the fastest growing regional market in Asia Pacific growing at a double digit compounded annual growth rate (CAGR). China is the major producer of glyphosate in the world. Presently the market is facing intense competition with several generic players mainly Chinese manufacturers operating in the market. 

The increase in pace of urbanization around the world has resulted into significant reduction of the rural labor force resulting into increase in demand for glyphosates. Continuous usage of glyphosate has resulted into the formation of some resistant variety of weeds.  Resistance from such problematic weeds was one of the major concerns for the glyphosate industry, affects the survival of economic crop plants.  Launch of genetically modified crops, glyphosate tolerant, and the introduction of innovative glyphosate formulations will continue to drive the demand for glyphosate in near future. 

Since 2011, the price of glyphosate has been growing high. While the upward trend of price of glyphosate will depend upon the introduction and implementation of environmental protection regulation. High profit margins and significant revenue growth has attracted several new players to the market after the patent expiry of original product in 2000.

Some of the key participants in the market includes Nufarm Limited, Syngenta AG, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Dow AgroSciences LLC,Monsanto Company, Shandong Weifang Rainbow Chemical, Zhejiang Wynca Chemical Group Co. Ltd., Anhui Huaxing Chemical Industry Co.
