A committee of Chinese pesticide industry experts have recommended replacements for banned high-toxicity insecticides. 
The national high-toxicity pesticide replacement project sought replacements for the organophosphate insecticides, methamidophos, monocrotophos, parathion-ethyl, parathion-methyl and phosphamidon. It recommended the active ingredients: methoxyfenozide and quinalphos, for use against striped rice borers (Chilo suppressalis); fipronil for use against yellow rice borers (Scirpophaga incertulas); silafluofen, nitenpyram and thiamethoxam against white-backed planthoppers (Sogatella furcifera); thiamethoxam against brown-backed planthoppers (Nilaparvata lugens), emamectin against rice leafrollers (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis); and chlorfenapyr against diamondback moths (Plutella xylostella). 
Older organophosphate insecticides have been slowly phased out in China.
