The raw material market suddenly changes, compound fertilizer is hard to get down

At the end of February, many places across the country ushered in cold wave weather, blizzards in the north, rains in the south, and cold weather seemed to reflect the current compound fertilizer market.
Although the spring demand is approaching, the market demand is not good, and the raw material market suddenly changes faster than the face.
, Which made the compound fertilizer market worse, and the quotation once again fell into an awkward position.
Since February 16, urea quotations in Shandong and Lianghe regions have continued to fall.
In less than a week, the ex-factory quotation of small granular urea has dropped from 1,705 yuan/ton to 1,610 yuan/ton, and the actual transaction price has dropped even more.
Obviously, mainly due to the impact of low-priced sources from other provinces and the poor acceptance of high-end quotations by the market, the sudden drop in urea prices has added a touch of sadness to the market for compound fertilizers.
At the same time, the market for phosphate and potash fertilizers is not very optimistic.
It is mostly in the period when the previous orders have not been completed.
Recently, the company's quotations are still not accepted by the market, the new orders are not well traded, and the raw material market suddenly changes, which makes the compound fertilizer companies usher in a "bump", and the quotation of compound fertilizer is hard to come by: at this time If the quotation is suddenly lowered, it will not be conducive to the distribution of pre-orders; the price of urea has fallen, and if the quotation of compound fertilizer remains high, the downstream mentality is tired and will not accept it, and the market launch will be slower in the later period.
In the face of this situation, some compound fertilizer companies have introduced preferential policies to stimulate downstream new orders and seize the market; some companies make false high quotations and use small increases in quotations to stimulate customers who make payments in the early stage to speed up the delivery speed, while targeting the late market Demand is about to formulate relevant preferential policies.
In fact, whether it is a steady decline or a falsely high quotation, due to the changing nature of the raw material market, the delivery of compound fertilizer companies has become very difficult.
Poor demand combined with weak raw material prices, compound fertilizers are negative factors superimposed, but the recent reappearance of environmental pressure, may it bring a ray of life to the compound fertilizer market? The two sessions were held in Beijing on March 3 and March 5, and environmental protection reappeared.
Starting on February 15, the environmental protection team began to carry out special air quality projects for the first quarter of 2017 in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan and other places.
Inspectors, the inspectorate team will be stationed for one month.
However, according to a recent collective survey conducted by editors of China Fertilizer.
com, in addition to the greater environmental protection efforts of companies around Beijing, environmental protection efforts in Hubei, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places are acceptable.
The operating rate of most companies has not seen a significant decline, so If you want to use environmental protection to help the prices of urea, compound fertilizers, etc.
, the hope is very slim, and the slow downward trend of fertilizer quotations will continue.
The slow downward trend of chemical fertilizers may continue until mid-March.
At that time, we must pay close attention to the market trend of raw materials.
