The board chairman and general manager Wu Kechong of Yifan Biotechnology is very optimistic about the cooperation, saying that over recent years international cooperation between pesticide companies is becoming more and more intensive, which has become a trend in the pesticide industry. The commercial crop-targeted fungicide series of Yifan Biotechnology hold a considerable market share in respect of China’s citrus and grape applications, as backed up by the good brand image of Yifan Biotechnology. IQV is a global leading copper formulation company with a history extending back for over 80 years, with solid technical strength in copper formulation productions. For Yifan Biotechnology, the cooperation between the two parties is an effective complement to our product chain. Meanwhile, the cooperation falls in line with our going global development strategy both inbound and outbound. I would like to thank our international business manager Wu Haiqin and marketing director Jia Junchao as well as their teams for their hard work on market survey and business negotiations concerning introduction of the product. For IQV, the cooperation means that IQV’s product finds its way to Chinese market on a long-term and sustainable basis. Both sides will surely seize the opportunity to make further progress to enable Bordo to become an influential and leading brand in Chinese copper formations market very soon.
 
IQV’s International Sales Director Marcos Muñoz holds the view that the precondition of cooperation lies on people, saying that during the meetings with Yifan Biotechnology it is so impressive and admirable to see their professional competence, quick reaction and strong power of execution. Today, there is an excess pesticide capacity globally. The times that big fish eating small fish have gone, it is now more like fast-moving fish eating slow-moving fish. This may not be an appropriate time to invest in production equipment, but a time to invest in a partner of cooperation, and a time to establish partnership with companies with common value and common objective. The main reason for our cooperation with Yifan Biotechnology is that we both could work together for common interest and common objective while the core competence of each of us is fully recognized. We believe that this strategic cooperation based upon Bordo 77% WG is just a beginning of a long-term strategic cooperation between IQV and Yifan Technology. I can assure you of a promising future.

Through in-depth discussions, we are of the opinion that the two parties are complementary to each other in many aspects, which are the cornerstone of cooperation between the two sides. Meanwhile, now it has been over 30 years since the presence of IQV in Chinese market. We hope to explore more effectively the Chinese market through the cooperation with Yifan Biotechnology. At present, we have a number of projects under preparation in several countries and regions in cooperation with Yifan Biotechnology. We believe that in the near future we will be able to reach more extensive and diversified collaborations.

According to the market development plan, Bordo will be used for prevention and control of citrus canker and cucumber angular leaf spot. Our company has created a brand product called Yifan- Subu for application to control of bacterial diseases.

As proved by the efficacy test conducted in 2018 and 2019, compared to other copper formulations, the product has an excellent performance as regards to the long-lasting effect and the resistance to rain wash.
 
3. Good mixability, with mild physiochemical property and moderate pH, being mixable for application according to the needs of designated purpose.
