Aijin Agrochemical

What Aijin Agrochemical does

Aijin Agrochemical (Jiangsu Aijin Crop Technology Group Co., Ltd. / 江苏艾津作物科技集团有限公司) is a privately held Chinese agrochemical group founded in 2003–2004 and headquartered in Nanjing Liuhe, Jiangsu. The group designs, develops, manufactures, and sells pesticide formulations and pest-control products across four product families — agricultural chemical pesticides (WP, WDG, SP, SC, FS, SL, EC, ME formulations), biological pesticides, sanitary/public-health pest-control products, and horticultural products — plus a premium green agricultural-produce line. Its historical specialty and market identity is molluscicide (snail control), anchored by flagship products such as 打锣® (70% niclosamide) and 涡停®/涡惧® (40% metaldehyde SC), later broadened under the 津灿灿® brand into rice/wheat protection, seed coatings, and snail control.

The company operates through four wholly-owned operating subsidiaries with divided commercial mandates: 津灿灿 (Nanjing) Plant Protection (domestic formulation sales and plant-protection services), Nanjing Essen Fine Chemical (international export sales and registration), 艾多安 (Nanjing) Pest Control (non-agricultural hygiene insecticides, termite and schistosomiasis products), and Jiangsu Aijin Agricultural Technology Services (operating the Aijin Rice Garden agritourism/eco-agriculture base). Its manufacturing base in Nanjing Liuhe spans ~80 mu with 16 liquid and 9 solid formulation production lines and ~10,000 tons annual capacity. Proprietary technology includes AccuNano® nano-pesticide delivery, SmartCoat® 3D film-forming seed-coating technology, plant-based microcapsule technology, and an NB-IoT underground termite monitoring system, backed by a portfolio of ~51 patents (14 invention patents) and CNAS-certified laboratories.

Revenue is generated primarily through product sales — domestic formulation sales (sales-led plus channel/PCO partners), international export across ~90 countries (registration and product-sales services), pest-control services, and direct-to-consumer premium rice sold via a membership/"認養農業" model (e.g., one-mu memberships at RMB 12,000). The group reported ~RMB 1.36 billion in 2023 sales and ~RMB 1.5 billion for 2024/2025, ranking among the top firms in China's national agrochemical formulation sales list (6th in 2023, 7th in 2025).

Direct peers

• Lier Chemical Co., Ltd. Chinese agrochemical company specializing in formulation manufacturing with significant overseas registration footprint. Closely comparable on scale, export orientation, and crop protection focus, with similar snail/pest control product overlap.
• Sichuan Fuhua Tongda Agro-chemicals: Private Chinese agrochemical manufacturer specializing in formulation and export. Comparable in scale and overseas-registration-driven go-to-market, with similar customer mix of distributors in Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Americas.
• Nutrichem (Zhongqi): Specialized Chinese pesticide formulation player ranked in the national Top-100 alongside Aijin. Most directly comparable in business model (formulation-led, export-driven, branded portfolio) and customer overlap in crop protection distributors.

Broad incumbents

• Hunan Haili Chemical Industry: Integrated Chinese agrochemical producer with AI and formulation capabilities and established international sales channels. Comparable as a Chinese export-oriented pesticide peer, though larger and broader in active ingredient scope.
• UPL Limited: Global agrochemical major with strong presence in emerging markets including Africa, Latin America, and South/Southeast Asia. Comparable in distribution and registration footprint across the same geographies Aijin targets, with a far broader product portfolio.
• ADAMA Ltd. Global crop protection leader with deep roots in Chinese manufacturing (Sanonda). Comparable as a formulation-heavy, internationally distributed pesticide company; ADAMA operates at vastly greater scale with broader product breadth.
• Zhejiang Xinan Chemical Industrial Group: Leading Chinese agrochemical group with integrated AI and formulation operations and substantial export footprint. Comparable as a China-based, globally distributed crop protection peer, materially larger in scale and product breadth.
• Syngenta Group (China operations): Global crop protection leader with significant China-based manufacturing and formulation capacity. Comparable as an internationally active pesticide player; competes with Aijin in distribution but operates at incomparably larger scale with proprietary AI.
• Jiangsu Yangnong Chemical Co., Ltd. One of China's largest agrochemical manufacturers with a broad portfolio of insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. Directly comparable as a Chinese-based, internationally exporting pesticide producer, though materially larger and more diversified than Aijin.

Regional players

• Nanjing Red Sun Co., Ltd. Major pesticide and pyridine chemicals producer also headquartered in Nanjing. Comparable as a regional Chinese incumbent in crop protection chemistry, though focused upstream in AI manufacture rather than snail/mollusc specialties.
