The document summarizes chlorpyrifos technical consumption data in China from 2010. Over half (55%) of chlorpyrifos technical was used for rice farming, with other major uses including other crops (12%), vegetables (9%), fruit (8%), and cotton (7%). In 2011, peanut fields became a new target market for chlorpyrifos manufacturers to address overcapacity issues. While domestic consumption was forecast to remain steady, manufacturers planned to increase exports to take advantage of growing foreign demand and declining international production capacity.
