In spring, the compound fertilizer market started slowly, and only a few areas had a slight improvement in the compound fertilizer, and the compound fertilizer sales in most areas were still not optimistic. From the northeast big dealers understand that all kinds of fertilizer before purchasing play money during the Spring Festival has arrived in succession, but the primary dealers and farmers have adopted a wait-and-see attitude, inquiry and more transactions less, dealers think this year primary dealers market than in previous years starting late, late really prepared fertilizer will have a wave approaching, but the peak demand. The duration is short, the expected time lasts only about half a month. Then the market may appear fertilizer shortage, stock of the situation, but the temporary purchasing time will not. In recent years, some regional compound fertilizer enterprises have issued preferential policies or lowered quotes to stimulate the downstream businesses. The effect is not very obvious. The inventory pressure of compound fertilizer enterprises is large, and the degree of concern for raw materials is not high.

The day of compound fertilizer is not good, the day of raw material is not good too, the specific situation is as follows:

Urea: the recent overall urea market weakness, the price fluctuation of agricultural demand for large area needs to start a period of time, the export industry needs no positive support, also did not improve, the current Shandong Linyi compound fertilizer urea storage enterprise purchase price at 1870 yuan / ton. The high nitrogen fertilizer production stage, the demand for urea nitrogen should be improved, but because of the compound fertilizer enterprises underemployment raw material inventory and slow digestion, the product inventory, poor sales, the price of urea is not stable, compound fertilizer enterprises of raw materials of urea on the sidelines darker, it is still tepid, according to a small amount of procurement.

A: a market to start ammonium ammonium before the Spring Festival, especially after the price was hit in Waterloo, the Shandong area 55% powdery ammonium acceptance storage price at 2230 yuan / ton, compared to before the Spring Festival fell 200 yuan / ton, the enterprise had introduced the base, limited production price and other policies to alleviate the pressure of inventory. At present, the price of the ammonium market is low, the inventory pressure is high, and the cost support is insufficient. The attention of the compound fertilizer enterprises is not high. They should first consume their own stocks and not consider the purchase matters first. Some compound fertilizer enterprises even buy the surplus raw materials of ammonium at the early stage of selling. The compound fertilizer enterprises in Shandong and other places have expressed the intention of no purchase of mono ammonium in the near future. At present, the enterprises only lack the raw materials such as less water soluble fertilizer and so on.

Potash fertilizer: Potash market continues to not improve, price chaos continues. Domestic potassium chloride factory will resume in April is expected to start production in April, the Saline Lake, the new price is being developed, rumors that the price will be at least down 100 yuan / ton; border ports and potassium chloride prices downward, the port 60% red particles prices fell to 2150-2180 yuan / ton, because sales pressure prices continue to trade down, 60% red port mainstream offer 1800 yuan / ton, the backlog of trade price is down red particles. Potassium sulfate quoted price is high, the actual deal can talk more space, the overall start is not low, and the inventory is also difficult to ease. Overall, potassium chloride, after this period of time of compound fertilizer enterprises have before purchasing the potassium sulfate inventory has not high purchasing enthusiasm, is expected to wait until the new price will be issued in April in Saline Lake, for the next wave of procurement market price uncertainty, but in the short term purchase amount should not be optimistic.

In summary, the spring fertilizer market downturn, sales is not ideal, the raw material of urea, ammonium and potassium fertilizer demand has less, plus pre purchase of raw materials consumption is slow, the whole compound fertilizer and its raw materials have a rough time, looking forward to the fertilizer market in full swing, will bring the whole market to the following.
