Fertilizer market start price is expected to rise

At present, the compound fertilizer market has started and the grassroots dealers are actively taking goods. Most of the manufacturers are producing at full capacity. However, there is still a situation where demand exceeds supply. Although the compound fertilizer market has risen since the beginning of the year, it will not affect the enthusiasm of farmers for using spring fertilizer.

The peak season has steadily risen steadily and steadily. "The country's large-scale drought has affected the fertilizer market, but dealers should return to rational thinking. The drought will delay the fertilizer season and the compound fertilizer market will start in mid-March. “The marketing general manager of Hubei Xiangyun Group Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. Liu Ruowei said. According to a survey conducted by the reporter, 45%* compound fertilizer prices for Hubei compound fertilizer manufacturers are generally around 2650-2700 yuan/ton, and 45% chlorine-based compound fertilizer prices are around 2400-2450 yuan/ton. In the next two months, the price of compound fertilizer will not fluctuate greatly, but in mid-March, the price of compound fertilizer should also rise slightly.

The reason is that, first of all, the fundamental factor supporting the price of compound fertilizer is the increase in the price of monoammonium, while the price supporting monoammonium is the price of raw materials such as ** and phosphate ore. Secondly, after 3 rain and snow conditions, the national drought situation has been eased. A large area of ​​fertilizer use is approaching. The enthusiasm of dealers to get goods is also very high. Many manufacturers are no longer accepting new orders in the short term.

For the market, Liu Ruowei believes that according to the prices from various provinces across the country, the compound fertilizer price is now at a relatively high point, but the market demand will still support the market price stability, even a slight increase.

Supply in local areas is in short supply According to the region surveyed by reporters this week, the spring plowing in Yunnan has started and all fertilizer manufacturers are also making full efforts. “Before years ago, the growth rate of the 45%* compound fertilizer in the Yunnan market has reached about 10%, and the raw materials and labor costs have also been on the rise.” said Guo Ruihe, marketing manager of Yunnan Yunye Fertilizer Co., Ltd..

At present, the manufacturers are also in the hands of reserve emptiness. With the advent of the fertilizer season, a large number of orders have caused manufacturers to overwhelm. Yunnan Province was basically unaffected by the drought across the country. The fertilization period of ** was also on schedule. Many Yunnan compound fertilizer manufacturers have chosen to provide the province's customers, large customers and old customers first. Many small order manufacturers have no time to worry about. . Compound fertilizer prices have risen, and downstream trading volumes have also increased. The wholesale price of 15:5:25* compound fertilizer in Yunnan is 3,550-3,600 yuan/ton, which is nearly 300 yuan/ton more than a month ago.

Guo Ruihe predicts that in the next month or less, the price of compound fertilizer will have 2%-3% room for growth. The reason is that some of the climate-affected provinces have not yet fully opened their markets and are satisfied. After orders from provinces and some major customers, some of the fertilizer manufacturers in Yunnan will be supplied to the whole country, and the real fertilizer market season will come. It is suggested that the grass-roots dealers have not purchased goods yet, and that they are eager to find sources of supply;
