Sequelae of Silymarin

In the eyes of most pharmaceutical companies, silymarin is a small three varieties, the market demand is not large In fact, on the contrary, silymarin is a large variety with an annual market demand of more than ten thousand tons, only the manufacturers mostly purchase from the origin, and the market sales are only for some traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and clinics Silymarin is an annual or biennial herbaceous plant of Compositae, also known as milk thistle, which uses seeds as medicine Originated in Western Europe and North Africa, China's main production in Shaanxi, Gansu, Heilongjiang and Hebei provinces With the market of silymarin increasing, the planting area of silymarin has gradually shifted from the northwest to the northeast of Liaoning, Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang Northeast China is rich in land resources and cheap After several years of development, large-scale planting bases have been formed in Northeast China Among them, Liaoning Panjin, as the core production area of silymarin seeds, 70% of the seeds are sold to the main production area and 30% to other secondary production areas every year In recent years, due to the good market of silymarin, the silymarin industry project in Panjin City, Liaoning Province has been in full swing, which has driven the development of local economy and further attracted the attention of more drug farmers in Heilongjiang, Jilin and Inner Mongolia production areas At present, Sunwu, Sunke, Nenjiang and Yichun Jiayin in Heihe production area of Heilongjiang Province are the main production areas (the output accounts for 60% of the whole country), followed by Tongjiang City (Jiansanjiang), Qiqihar Fuyu, Mudanjiang, Suihua, daxing'anlin in Jiamusi City, Yakeshi in Hulunbuir, Yanji and Inner Mongolia autonomous regions of Jilin Province (the output of the Northeast secondary production area accounts for 30% of the whole country %) The planting scale in Northwest China is decreasing year by year At present, the fate of silymarin is completely in the hands of farmers in Northeast China Due to the continuous operation of silymarin at the price of 18-20 yuan for nearly two years, the growers have obtained good profits and greatly improved their enthusiasm for planting In 2011, the planting area of silymarin in China reached nearly 400000 mu, with a total output of more than 20000 tons The best lever to adjust the planting area is the price Last year, silymarin was used to stimulate the development of large-scale farming with a high price of 20 yuan With the overproduction, the price of silymarin has declined to 10-12 yuan in April this year, and the lowest purchase price of the origin is about 8 yuan Affected by the sharp drop in the price of silymarin, the planting area of each production area has been reduced this year It is understood that this year, the planting area of Heilongjiang, Panjin, Liaoning, is about 200000 mu, that of Yakeshi, Inner Mongolia is about 5000 mu, that of Gansu, Shaanxi and other areas is about 2000 mu, and that part of the Northeast has too much rainfall, which affects the per unit yield This year, the planting area of silymarin is 150000 Mu less than that in 2011 It is estimated that the total output of silymarin in China is about 14000 tons Due to the reduction of the planting area of silymarin this year, the production of new products will also decline However, in 2011, the production of silymarin was over, and silymarin was still in stock for sale The annual demand of silymarin market is about 15000 tons There is still no gap between supply and demand in this year's new product output and old products Moreover, silymarin export orders are reduced due to the impact of the European debt crisis this year Some domestic manufacturers will reduce the production of silymarin In this way, the demand for silymarin will also decrease to varying degrees Therefore, this year's silymarin market is difficult to have a big turnaround, but after the new production, the price is also difficult to show too much room for decline Even, some suppliers will prepare a large number of goods according to the low price of silymarin, and pull the price of silymarin up slightly At present, the new production in the northwest production area has ended The price of the goods in the production area is about 11 yuan, and the price of the goods in the market is more than 12 yuan The Northeast production area is about to usher in the new production There are still old goods in the production area for sale, and the price of the goods in the production area is about 12 yuan.
