    On Monday, ammonium demand turned flat.
    The new orders of the enterprise are generally traded, and many main suppliers are in the early stage.
    The Hubei factory still suspends the order.
    At present, the 55% powdered ammonium acceptance factory in Hubei has temporarily stabilized at around 1,700 yuan (ton price, the same below), and the Shandong acceptance storage price is 1820.
    -1830 yuan.
    Some downstream compound fertilizer companies have slowed down in phased purchases, and traders have basically finished buying goods.
    In the short term, the company's replenishment volume should not be large, and wait and see.
    The international monoammonium market has not improved significantly.
    Although the demand in Brazil has appeared, the transaction has been slow, and the prices of buyers and sellers are deadlocked.
    The CIF price of 63% granular monoammonium in Brazil and the FOB price of 55% granular monoammonium in China continue to drop to 362 -US$365 and US$280; the current arrival price of 55% monoammonium pellets in Hong Kong has dropped to around 1850 yuan, which is partly acceptable.
    In terms of raw materials, phosphate rock is mainly stable; the sulfur market is still consolidating this week.
    Due to the upside down of the external market and weak demand, the port sulfur continues to fall.
    Currently, the particulate sulfur at the Yangtze River port has dropped to 800 yuan, and the price of Puguang sulfur has risen slightly.
    It is temporarily stable at 740 yuan in Dazhou and 820 yuan in Wanzhou Port; the price of liquid ammonia in Hubei continues to rise slightly, and the current acceptance price is about 2550 yuan.
    In summary, although the demand for downstream purchases in the off-season has slowed down, the price of monoammonium should be temporarily stable in the short term due to continued production restrictions and raw materials to support costs.
    The diammonium market is operating weakly.
    On 9-10 of this month, another 6+2 meeting was held in Wuhan, Hubei.
    After the meeting, it was learned from market feedback that the domestic diammonium quotation dropped slightly.
    Taking the Shandong market as an example, 57% of the diammonium arrived at the station price not less than 2200 yuan, 64% diammonium is not less than 2450 yuan, but the company has learned that at this stage, due to the main supply of diammonium for export, the volume of new domestic orders is relatively small, and the company has no plan to reduce prices.
    What is even more strange is that, The sales and storage prices implemented by the major distributors at this stage are the same as the above prices.
    Under the premise that there is no favorable market support, for downstream distributors, the company's "raise" prices are really confusing.
    That's it.
    Although diammonium is priced, the actual new price transaction volume is relatively small.
    Export progress is slow, the volume of new orders is average, and the factory's intentional FOB price is also correspondingly lower.
    There are still transactions at the FOB price of $350.
    However, according to the new domestic price set, the export market pressure has not been alleviated.
    .
    In terms of production, the country has entered the regular off-season, and some factories indicated that they will enter the phase of shutdown for maintenance in the middle of this month, which is expected to last 20-30 days.
    In summary, affected by the early dumping of goods in Northeast China, the purchase of diammonium in the North China market has been slightly cautious, while exports have not received a certain amount of increase.
    It is expected that the price of diammonium may continue to bottom out in the later period.
