Everyone who cultivates land knows that choosing and applying fertilizer well can get twice the result with half the effort.

There are many kinds of fertilizers, including compound fertilizer, urea, phosphate fertilizer and potash fertilizer.

Will the price of chemical fertilizer go up?

After the Spring Festival, the domestic urea market was tepid, and urea prices in many areas continued to decline. However, urea prices have recently stopped falling and rebounded. This week, the price of mainstream urea rose by 10 ~ 30 yuan/ton. At present, the domestic mainstream urea price is 2700 ~ 2800 yuan/ton.

However, the price of phosphate fertilizer was mainly weak after the Lantern Festival, and now the price is gradually rising. At present, the mainstream quotation of phosphate fertilizer is maintained at around 1290 yuan/ton.

In the later period, with the beginning of spring ploughing in Northeast China, the demand for chemical fertilizer stocking in the market is gradually heating up, and the prices of urea and phosphate fertilizer are running strongly. In the short term, the price of chemical fertilizer will fluctuate upward, and the chemical fertilizer market will enter the stage of booming purchase and sale, and the price may rise.

Market trend analysis of fertilizer price in the later period

With the approach of spring ploughing, agricultural materials such as chemical fertilizers have ushered in the peak consumption season. At present, Russia-Ukraine relations are still tense, and the global fertilizer supply may be affected and there will be a shortage, thus pushing up the fertilizer price.

In China, the demand for fertilizers in spring ploughing stage mainly includes urea, diammonium phosphate and various compound fertilizers. Because it is unlikely that the production cost will drop sharply, it is expected that the price of spring ploughing fertilizer will run at a high level this year.

However, due to the relatively sufficient market supply and the official measures to ensure a stable price supply, the space for a sharp increase in fertilizer prices may be limited.

The above is an introduction to the market situation of spring ploughing fertilizer in 2023. At present, the market price of chemical fertilizer has risen. With the increase of fertility in the later period, the price may rise further. However, under the control of the National Development and Reform Commission, the problem of price increase of spring ploughing fertilizers will be alleviated. In short, this stage is the peak of fertilizer use, and the price increase of fertilizer is normal, but it will not keep rising. I suggest you collect more market information and buy fertilizer at the right time.
