Abstract

The problem of excessive use of pesticide and chemical fertilizer in China has received attention in recent years. Based on statistical data, the comparative analysis of the application rates of fertilizer and pesticide were carried out between China and typical developed countries, to illustrate the problems of fertilizer and pesticide application faced in China. The results showed:1) compared with the typical developed countries (Japan, The UK, The U.S.A, France and Germany)in the world, China has the highest fertilizer consumption and fertilizer application rates but the lowest output rates of fertilizer.2)The pesticide consumption in China ranks first among these typical developed countries, the pesticide application rates is the second(after Japan),and the output rates of pesticide is the last. 3)Under the background of economic transformation and ecological civilization construction, there is a long way to go to promote the efficient fertilization and green disease and pest control in the future.
