In recent years, urea prices have been declining slightly, especially in Shandong and Lianghe, the main production areas. At this stage, the price of urea received by composite fertilizer enterprises in Linyi is 1620-1630 yuan (ton price, the same below). In previous years, the receipt of urea enterprises in the early days of small and long holidays was ideal. Even if prices were reduced, a large number of pending orders could be received. However, the receipt of urea factories before the May Day holiday this year was not ideal, After the festival, the enterprise's shipment was also blocked, the factory's quotation continued to decline, and the downstream or temporary wait-and-see, or the purchase has ended. Due to the large supply, the urea quotation still has room to continue to decline.

The game of urea is endless. How about monoammonium, which is also the raw material of compound fertilizer? Can it stand on its own?

Supply side. In the past, may was the annual overhaul season for monoammonium enterprises, but this year's situation is different from the past. In the early stage, the operating rate of Monoammonium enterprises in Hubei, the main production area, affected by the epidemic, was not high, less than 30%. Most enterprises have no overhaul plan in the near future, and most enterprises have orders waiting to be issued. Although the growth rate of orders waiting to be issued has slowed down from April to now, the shipment situation of enterprises is relatively smooth, and some enterprises have a balanced production and marketing, At present, only a few enterprises have begun to overhaul for a week and a half months from the beginning or the end of next month. Most enterprises are still in normal production. Although most enterprises in Henan Province have maintenance plans in the later stage, they have little impact on the overall operating rate of Monoammonium, but according to the experience of previous years, they still need to pay attention to the operating changes of enterprises in Hubei Province. After the order is executed, some enterprises may have temporary maintenance of devices.

Demand side. In the short term, the demand is not very ideal. For some provinces and cities in the south, the consumption of compound fertilizer is not too much. Some dealers said that the purchased compound fertilizer still had stock and the replenishment volume was not large. For the high nitrogen fertilizer market in North China and other places, the dealers' purchasing enthusiasm is not very high. Although there is a certain demand, the atmosphere is not high. In the near future, the compound fertilizer enterprises also reported that the delivery of compound fertilizer was weak. Shandong compound fertilizer plant said that it should have replenished the monoammonium in the middle of this month. However, due to the unsatisfactory delivery and the maintenance of some units of compound fertilizer in the near future, it is expected that monoammonium raw material will be delayed to June for re procurement. It can be seen that the demand situation in the short term may not be very satisfactory, but in the long run, the demand for monoammonium in autumn can be expected.

Raw materials. In recent months, the sulfur storage in the port has gradually decreased to around 2.7 million tons. In addition, the price of sulfur electronic disk has increased recently. The atmosphere of the port sulfur market has warmed up and the price has gone up. At present, the granular sulfur in the Yangtze River port and Fangcheng Port has risen to 610 yuan continuously, but the industry believes that there is no possibility of a sharp rise. The price of liquid ammonia remains low. At present, the factory acceptance price of Hubei liquid ammonia is 2550-2570 yuan.
