At the beginning of September, autumn reserves over half of fertilizer schedule, most of the dealers in the Central Plains region by fertilizer reached 60%-70%, shipping companies are carried out by wildly beating gongs and drums, the environmental pressure effect, the large scale compound fertilizer enterprises operating rate is only about 6 into, the enterprise to order still more, the new single land continued to increase, the local wait in line for goods phenomenon, but not yet the end of autumn fertilizer, winter storage market has now why the wind sways grass winter storage market, this year so far in advance?
First of all, the autumn fertilizer market has been locked, the latter little room for replenishment. Since the beginning of August, Anhui, South of Jiangsu and other places in fertilizer reserves basically near the end, and Shandong, and other places of the rivers fall fat reserves are in season, but for the enterprise receivables pre orders, affected by the recent environmental pressure control, the local shipping companies nervous, but the price hit in the early has been locked, and above the lower amount of play money has reached 80% in previous years, the remaining space is of little significance in autumn fertilizer price changes.
Secondly, the first half of the market light, forcing enterprises ahead of schedule. The prices of maize market downturn, the first half of the year, especially in the year to March, the compound fertilizer market cold, downstream preparation fertilizer is not active, the spring market enterprise collection is not ideal, take most of compound fertilizer enterprises volume decreased. The lower planting enthusiasm, reduce fertilizer input, bring a series of problems such as preparation of fertilizer demand reduction is the first half of dismal market, in order to avoid risks, and the fall of fertilizer market near the end, a handful of compound fertilizer enterprises will look to the side of winter, the northeast and Hebei a few companies have introduced winter storage and start receiving quotation in order to advance the operation, a lot of goods to go late, although the majority of enterprises are not ready for winter, but winter started earlier than in previous years this signal indicates that the 3 months of winter storage demand this year will be a fierce battle.
Finally, the raw material market support, environmental assistance. Recently the price of raw materials and the rise of early, potassium sulfate and hydrochloric acid by environmental protection started low, prices high and stable, the 50% mainstream powder factory price 2650 yuan / ton, 50% particles and 52% water soluble powder mainstream factory price 2800 yuan / ton; urea by India in September after the bidding information and confidence small rise, small granular urea prices in Shandong and other places of the two rivers again rose to 1530-1550 yuan / ton. The same basic sulfur ammonification and process tower also by environmental protection and raw material prices rose slightly while 30-60 yuan / ton, 45% sulfur based compound fertilizer factory general mainstream price at around 2050-2150 yuan / ton, so by the rally, companies began operating winter storage policies might not be wise.
