July fertilizer market continues to slump

July fertilizer market and not, as is generally predicted to reverse the downturn in decline, the manufacturers take the goods are still not ideal, no fertilizer prices are also positive signs. 45% of the chlorine-based compound fertilizer prices in the 1700-1900 yuan / ton, 45% of compound fertilizer factory price in 2100-2250 yuan / ton. With the previous quarter, the fertilizer prices flat in July.

Market stability maintenance Northwest winds prevailed wait

Shaanxi late autumn market manufacturers operating rate is not high, the majority of 5 percent or so, take the goods situation is not ideal, many dealers on the sidelines. Xianyang dealer Mr. Zhao said summer sales now is not ideal, in May and now only sell 600 tons of fertilizer, coupled with market prices basically flat with the ex-factory price, the profits are very limited. Mr. Zhao said: "The emergence of buying fertilizer in autumn last year the phenomenon did not occur this year, the bulk of basic goods did not go." He stressed the importance of environmental protection as farmers, making the new release fertilizer, such as manure, organic fertilizer than conventional fertilizer better to win the favor of the farmers. Of course, these new fertilizer in the sales market is not easy, a lot of low-quality fertilizer under the banner name of the new fertilizer shoddy, and also at a low price to win the goodwill of the farmers, to seize the market, making a real lack of new fertilizers should some market share.

Maintenance of stability in central market weakness

Continuing weak downstream demand

Central China market is showing weakness maintenance of stability of the situation, the manufacturer operating rate fell more. Hubei and Hunan regions some factory operating rate is down to less than 3 percent, reasons for the decline should be weak downstream demand and the corresponding raw material prices too hard. Henan Province in July slowed shipments go, be prepared fertilizer market stability, the new single volume began to decrease, the local fertilizer prices 45% chlorine-based compound remained at around 2,100 yuan / ton, 45% of the basic compound fertilizer also stable at around 2,300 yuan / ton. According to the reporter, offer 45% higher chlorine-based compound fertilizer Henan Zhongyuan brand fertilizer prices basically stable at around 2,630 yuan / ton, manufacturers indicated that they are normal production, capacity utilization at 60% or so. The reason, the rigid demand for fertilizer in Henan Henan wheat fertilizer market out of the doldrums provided an opportunity, but on the whole, central China, southern end of the market resulted in lower demand weakness in the region, Henan, one place is not enough to shake the entire Central China's market decline.

Price stability in East China

But market chaos

The only country that can be called a good market in east China, July East China fertilizer manufacturers operating rate remained at 5 percent. Prepared fertilizer policy introduced in autumn finished preferential larger interest bearing, play money and other policy-oriented, thus ensuring that manufacturers can maintain a high operating rate, ensuring market stability, fertilizer price stability. Preparation of fertilizer which began in Shandong fruit, high potash demand, potassium tight. 45% of compound fertilizer mainstream offer in 2000-2200 yuan / ton, 45% of the chlorine-based compound in 1750-1900 yuan / ton, the difference of 200 yuan / ton. Jiangsu fertilizer market gradually opens, increased stocking downstream distributors, manufacturers offer factory about 45% of chlorine-based compound 1800 yuan / ton, 45% of compound fertilizer around 2000 yuan / ton, but the actual price is slightly lower, the market price basically flat with the ex-factory price, lower factory profits, the market price is more confusion. Jiangsu also implementing a dividend policy, the basic price is not lowered, post-market prices is unlikely.

North China market dull

Downstream markets generally general

Overall, the market is more in North China plain, start schedule varies, manufacturers offer to postpone the downstream effects in general, a small new single volume. North China, July fertilizer has been postponed time is generally higher than last year, so the market price remains to be seen. Hebei mainstream manufacturers offer has stabilized, 45% of the chlorine-based compound fertilizer prices stable at 1750-1800 yuan / ton. Because manufacturers to implement multi-buyout price, the lower the overall price, but the downstream market is still not ideal, lower volume than the same period last year nearly 3 percent. Preparation of fertilizer farmers are not enthusiastic. Shanxi fertilizer market is slow to start, manufacturers offer postponed. Similar to the Hebei region with the downstream market reaction was less volume, play money situation is not optimistic. Some manufacturers reluctantly proposed to implement a single policy. Fertilizer manufacturers have said poor market conditions, depressed, or will continue. Most of the manufacturers for the price outlook is not optimistic that steadily. (
