Brassinosteroids (BRs) are in line with the concept of green agricultural development and have broad market development space

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant growth regulators with the characteristics of high safety, high activity, low usage, and significant effects. Brassinosteroids exist in various plants, such as lower algae, gymnosperms, angiosperms, etc. In plants, brassinosteroids are mainly concentrated in reproductive organs, young tissues, and immature seeds, where they play a role in promoting seed maturation and regulating reproductive development.

According to different production processes, brassinosteroids can be divided into two categories: natural brassinosterols and synthetic brassinosterols. Subdivided products include 14-hydroxybrassinosterol, 28-homobrassinolide, and 28-epihomorassain. Brassinolide, 24-epibrassinolide and 22,23,24-epibrassinolide, of which 14-hydroxybrassinosterol is a natural brassinosterol, and the other four are synthetic brassinoids. Sterol.

14-Hydroxybrassinosteroid is currently the only registered natural brassinosteroid analogue, and my country has independent intellectual property rights. 14-Hydroxybrassinosteroid is an environmentally friendly product. Its raw materials are derived from rape pollen or beeswax, and the production process does not produce waste. In China, 14-hydroxybrassinosteroid-related registered companies include Chengdu Xinchaoyang, Zhengzhou Xianlida Chemical, Guilin Jiqi Biochemical, Henan Splendid Star Crops, Zhejiang Tianfeng Bio, etc. In 2022, New Chaoyang made progress in the research on natural brassinosteroid crystal form technology, and the crystal form patent received a PCT international patent acceptance notice.

According to the “2022-2026 China Brassinosteroid Product Market Analysis Feasibility Research Report” released by the Industrial Research Center, my country The plant growth regulator industry started late, but relying on the huge agricultural scale, the plant growth regulator market is growing rapidly, with the market size growing to about 9.0 billion yuan in 2021. Brassinosteroids are suitable for a wide range of crops, are safe and environmentally friendly, and are currently one of the most recognized plant growth regulators in the market. With the continuous development of related functions, the brassinosteroids market has broad development prospects.

In agricultural production, brassinosteroids can enhance the stress resistance of crops such as wheat, corn, fruits, vegetables, and rice under abiotic stress stresses such as drought, high temperature, and low temperature, thereby improving grain yield and quality. In the context of the rapid development of green agriculture, brassinosterol is expected to gain more market development space with its advantages of greenness, safety, broad spectrum, and high efficiency.

In terms of dosage forms, brassinosteroid dosage forms include soluble agents, emulsifiable concentrates, aqueous agents, water-dispersible granules, soluble powders, etc. Industry analysts said that brassinosteroids are suitable for a wide range of crops, are safe and environmentally friendly, are in line with the current concept of green agriculture development, and are promising for future market development. Broad prospects. my country is a major agricultural country, and the planting area of ​​fruits, vegetables, wheat, rice and other crops ranks among the top in the world, providing broad space for the development of the brassinosteroid market.
