    As the Spring Festival approaches, the demand for fertilizer procurement has basically been suspended, and most middlemen have entered a holiday.
    In addition, the low-end potash prices continue to hit new lows, and the "buy up and not buy down" mentality has increased the wait-and-see atmosphere for businesses.
    The two leading potash fertilizer companies have successively lowered their sales prices.
    In order to achieve the purpose of clearing inventory and recovering funds, the phenomenon of potash fertilizer companies' bidding sales is still prominent.
    However, due to holiday factors, potash fertilizer prices continued to remain stable and consolidate before the holiday.
    And the market downturn hidden under the appearance of market stabilization may cause prices to fluctuate downward after the holiday.

    In addition, the actual price of pellets of Russian red potassium is about 2040 yuan.
    The old and new sources of potash in the southern port coexist in the market, and the price difference between tax-included and tax-excluded sources is 80-100 yuan.
    It is reported that the transaction price of 62% Russian white potassium including tax is 2,200 to 2,220 yuan, which is about 50 yuan higher than that of East China and Shandong markets.
    Lianyungang potash fertilizer inventory is at a high level, and demand has not improved.
    Russian red potassium was quoted at 2,000 yuan, 62% Russian white potassium was sold at 2,000 yuan, and 62% plus white potassium was quoted at 2,250 yuan.

    The official price of 60% crystalline potassium chloride of Salt Lake Group is 2080 yuan, and the latest price of 1980 yuan has been implemented internally.
    Xinjiang Luoka mainly supplies old customers, and new orders are not sold well.
    In addition, the second tender for Yunnan Tobacco Fertilizer failed.
    The current national arrival price of 51% powdered potassium sulfate is 2,300 yuan (including value-added tax), and the actual purchase price of the agent is lower.
    Potassium Sulfate The demand for potassium sulphate remained sluggish last week, but the sudden change in upstream market prices made processing companies miserable.
    First of all, the results of the second bidding for Yunnan tobacco fertilizer were announced.
    The winning price was 2390~2530 yuan, but none of Xinjiang Luoka won the bid.
    Affected by this, the company lowered its sales price, that is, the mainstream arrival price of 51% powdered potassium sulfate was 2,300 yuan, which was about 200 yuan lower than the quotation last week.
    There is still a lot of preferential space for agents and large orders.
