Of all the 32 products sold in global market, 8 of them have reached the annual sales of over $ 100 million. Nicosulfuron becomes the best selling product with its annual sales of $ 230 million.

Though been successfully introduced in the rice market, the soybean and cereal market have reflect their importance of the products. With entries into the fruit, vegetables and lawn fields, the sulfonylurea herbicides are on an increasing demand in the future. It is estimated that the sales of sulfonylurea products is growing at a rate of 2% every year.
