    With the advent of the spring preparation season, the market demand for compound fertilizers has started one after another


    Looking at the market outlook, as the demand for spring ploughing and fertilizer preparation is released one after another, the nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, and potash fertilizer market still has room for upside.


    Higher costs, higher prices

    Zhuo Chuang Information analyst Chen Hong said that the increase in the price of compound fertilizer raw materials and the increase in cost are the main reasons for the price increase of enterprises


    In terms of urea, the price of liquefied natural gas has risen sharply recently.


    In terms of ammonium phosphate, driven by raw materials such as sulfur and synthetic ammonia, the market price of ammonium phosphate is also rising


    In terms of potash fertilizer, Chinese companies recently finalized an annual supply contract with Canada, and the CIF price of potash fertilizer was US$590, a year-on-year increase of 139%


    Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are the basic raw materials of compound fertilizers.

      Chen Hong introduced that after the holiday, fertilizer companies urgently resumed production.
