Since the spring fertilizer market is started in spring, the overall advancement of most areas has been cleared up, and the remaining demand in the follow-up market is not much. In the field of compound fertilizer, the performance of the market is not warm this spring. With the gradual increase of the volume of compound fertilizer in some areas, most enterprises gradually turn their eyes to the summer fertilizer market before the spring ploughing is about to be finished. At present, the price of summer fertilizer in some areas, such as two rivers and Shandong, has already been used in some areas. After preliminary formulation, the summer fertilizer orders in different regions are also being carried out vigorously.

Compared with compound fertilizer, the market situation of water soluble fertilizer in the spring is quite the opposite. Following the end of the winter demand, the amount of spring is increasing, but it has not diminished in the near future, and it continues to show a "pursuit of success". The specific reasons are as follows:

First, the price of traditional fertilizers is high, and the cost of water soluble fertilizers is more prominent. According to the Chinese fertilizer network, the 45% chloric / sulphur based universal series quoted at present are 1900-2100 yuan and 2300-2500 yuan (tons price, the same below), up about 100-200 yuan compared with the same period last year, which are affected by the low price of raw materials, the shortage of downstream demand and the increasing pressure of the enterprise stock. The price of compound fertilizer has declined, but the overall decline is not very obvious. The situation that the price of compound fertilizer is more comprehensive than in previous years has influenced the enthusiasm of the stock in a certain degree, but the terminal market in the near stage also shows the embarrassing situation of "bad season", because the price ratio of the water soluble fertilizer is more obvious than the traditional fertilizer, and the price is stable, so the lower reaches of the region are downstream. At the grass-roots level, we began to try to accept and apply the water soluble fertilizer products. In addition, it has been heard that the dianmonium in Xinjiang area is very bad. At present, the downstream purchasing power is scattered and the basic level funds are insufficient. It is expected that this situation will be very difficult to be relieved in the short term, because the trend of the diammonium market in this area is not clear in the later period, so the local grass-roots level may be in the stock period. If we find another way out, water soluble fertilizer will become a more suitable substitute product.

Secondly, the demand for water-soluble fertilizer increased as the planting structure changed. Generally speaking, the main types of planting in northern China are field crops such as rice, corn and wheat. Influenced by climate and tillage conditions, the planting area of fruits and vegetables is small. With the adjustment of the planting structure in some areas, the surface accumulation of economic crops is increasing year by year. The amount also increased.  The reason is that in 2016, China's Ministry of Agriculture issued the "national planting structure adjustment plan (2016-2020 years)", which clearly emphasized the importance and urgency of the adjustment of the planting structure. It has adjusted the route and outlined the blueprint for the current and the future period to guide the local structure. It has continuity, prominence and note. With the characteristics of heavy leading and so on, it has made a clear advocacy of the adjustment of planting structure in the region from the policy level. The two reason is that the grain prices are generally low in recent years, and the profit of the grass-roots crops in the field crops is not as good as before. In order to increase the income and improve the quality of life, people have changed the planting structure, and the economic crops are occupied. The ratio is greatly improved, and the characteristics of the fertilizer needed for the cash crop itself include rich nutrition and fast fertilizer efficiency, so that water soluble fertilizer stands out in many new types of fertilizer and is favored.

To sum up, the fertilizer market now is a "contention". Because of the high price of compound fertilizer and the adjustment of the planting structure in some areas this spring, the water soluble fertilizer products have already entered the public view, the market attention has been greatly improved. When facing various kinds of water soluble fertilizer brands, the downstream grass roots should be combined with themselves. At the same time, we should further understand and carefully choose to maximize production and income.
