The nitrogen fertilizer industry strives to ensure the supply of nitrogen fertilizer for spring ploughing

On March 22, I learned from the China Nitrogen Fertilizer Industry Association that in order to escort the normal production of nitrogen fertilizer enterprises, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association will give full play to its functions and timely coordinate with relevant state departments to solve the problems encountered in the production and operation of nitrogen fertilizer enterprises.
At present, domestic nitrogen fertilizer production is steadily improving
.

It is understood that since March, the country has entered the peak season for spring ploughing and fertilizer use from south to north
.
However, factors such as the tight supply of raw materials for production, the temporary interruption of logistics caused by the epidemic, and the environmental protection and production restrictions due to heavy pollution in autumn and winter have brought many difficulties to the normal production of nitrogen fertilizers in China
.

In order to ensure the production and operation of nitrogen fertilizer enterprises, on March 17, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association submitted the "Suggestions on Maintaining Supply and Stable Prices of Nitrogen Fertilizers during Spring Ploughing" to the National Development and Reform Commission Economic and Trade Department and other chemical fertilizer supply departments, focusing on the current rising coal and natural gas prices.
and lack of market confidence
.

On March 18, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association reported to the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, and the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation on the impact of the sudden new crown epidemic on the transportation of nitrogen fertilizer raw materials and products
.

On March 19, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association learned that the nitrogen fertilizer enterprises in Jincheng, Shanxi Province had significantly reduced production due to environmental protection restrictions, and immediately reported the relevant situation to the Economic and Trade Department of the National Development and Reform Commission
.
After emergency communication and coordination between the Economic and Trade Department of the National Development and Reform Commission and the Development and Reform Commission of Shanxi Province, the relevant departments of Jincheng City, Shanxi Province fully considered the importance and urgency of ensuring the supply of chemical fertilizers, temporarily adjusted the environmental protection production restriction plan, and allowed enterprises to resume nitrogen fertilizer on the evening of March 21.
production is expected to increase urea production by 8,200 tons/day
.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association, although the production and sales of nitrogen fertilizers are currently facing many difficulties, the national and local government departments at all levels attach great importance to ensuring the supply of chemical fertilizers for spring ploughing.
Some problems have been solved, and some are researching solutions
.
With the joint efforts of all parties, the current nitrogen fertilizer production momentum is good
.
According to the estimate of the Nitrogen Fertilizer Association, the national average daily output of urea in March reached 164,000 tons, a year-on-year increase of 1.
9%
