Throughout April, most areas of liquid ammonia manufacturers is to earn pours, such as in a few enterprises in Shanxi said the ammonia production cost 1300 yuan (ton price, the same below), and in April the price of basic ammonia hovering between 1950-2000 yuan profit clear, most other regions also so, however in the production manufacturers to indulge in happy imperceptibly, ammonia good market changes, enter May, ammonia price not only sharply, and make the downstream were not slow to god. If the price of liquid ammonia north, East and central China and most other producing areas fell by 100 yuan, up to now the price is still in decline, shipments are also poor, the nationwide ammonia mainstream factory price 1800-2400 yuan in cash transactions, are negotiating space, the market began to bottom liquid ammonia thoroughly trip.

First look at the market in different regions of the difference of liquid ammonia. The price is the first ammonia Market in North Hebei area began to fall, the mainstream acceptance ammonia factory price 1960-1990 yuan, individual high-end 2020 yuan, turnover low 50 yuan; Shanxi area of liquid ammonia mainstream factory price 1850-1950 yuan in cash, 50 yuan lower part of large transactions. The East China market prices also decline, due to the increase in the amount of ammonia on the part of manufacturers, prices have fallen sharply, the Shandong area of liquid ammonia spot mainstream factory price 2050-2150 yuan; Jiangsu area liquid cash mainstream factory price 2100-2250 yuan, high-end quote turnover still slightly on the Anhui area; liquid ammonia factory acceptance mainstream transaction 2070-2090 yuan, cash transactions in Anqing area the reference price of 2180 yuan. The central market of liquid ammonia prices fell 100-150 yuan, Henan area of liquid ammonia factory price 2030-2100 yuan mainstream acceptance, turnover low 20-50 yuan, Hubei Dachang ammonia ammonia recovery device, the local daily supply increased 400 tons, the acceptance of the mainstream transaction price of 2250 yuan reference factory.

Secondly, in such a weak market, what are the factors about ammonia price? On the one hand, the recent market downturn urea, urea, a few manufacturers fed downstream marketing agricultural need is extremely light, and with the mining, one or two dealers don't buy Urea, but in the sale of profit sources, undoubtedly reduced or even money, which leads to the enhancement of the urea market wait-and-see attitude, manufacturers of urea it is difficult to control, the price steady downward into the mainstream, even some support in the late summer dressing, but the effect should be slow, and the basic starting time until the end of May and early June, so the short-term market may also not have what improvement, in the comprehensive profits, some manufacturers may reduce urea enterprises operating rate but, to production of liquid ammonia, such as a urea enterprises of East China, Chongqing and other regions will be transferred to the liquid ammonia, and strive for profit maximization of profit, At present, the overall operating rate of urea enterprises is only about 68.6%. On the other hand, compound fertilizer, compound fertilizer market off-season struck, weak current, most areas hit the price war, the high nitrogen fertilizer market also appeared to be optimistic about the bad, such as manufacturers generally will be the introduction of preferential policies, environmental pressure, fertilizer season, although the compound fertilizer industry operating rate of about 58.6%, but local the market is still less than 3, so the purchase quantity of raw material of ammonia is greatly reduced, resulting in ammonia manufacturers take the goods, inventory pressure, prices have to down.

Finally, look at the trend of late, ammonia Market bad factors dominate, favorable factors on downstream chemical industry shortage, some support and fertilizer companies slow to boost the price rebound pressure is bigger, so ammonia bottom trip could have a long journey.
