Nitrogen fertilizers<\/strong><\/p>\n

The urea market continues to strengthen. The main support comes from active demand in the US, Brazil and Europe, while the market awaits China\u2019s decision on new export volumes.<\/p>\n

Key factors:<\/strong>
\n\u2013 Egypt, the Middle East and Nigeria are strengthening amid active demand.
\n\u2013 European demand remains high, especially in certain regions of Northern and Central Europe.
\n\u2013 Brazil remains active in purchasing.
\n\u2013 The market is awaiting a new round of export quotas from China.
\n\u2013 Urea shipments through the Strait of Hormuz have been suspended again.
\n\u2013 High grain and gas prices further support the market.<\/p>\n

BINFIELD assessment: the nitrogen market retains growth potential in the short term. The key uncertainty factor remains the volume of Chinese exports. Additional supplies from China may restrain growth, but high demand and logistics risks currently support the market.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n

Ammonium sulphate \/ AS<\/strong><\/p>\n

AS remains resilient amid the general strengthening of the nitrogen segment.<\/p>\n

Key factors:
\n\u2013 China remains the main source of supply.
\n\u2013 Export levels remain stable, while Brazil shows more active demand.
\n\u2013 Logistics and export restrictions continue to affect batch availability.<\/p>\n

BINFIELD assessment: AS remains resilient but still depends on Chinese exports. Product availability and delivery times currently matter more than short-term market fluctuations.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n

Phosphate fertilizers \/ DAP, MAP, TSP<\/strong><\/p>\n

The phosphate market is becoming increasingly dependent on demand in South Asia. India is actively increasing purchases, while demand in Brazil and other Western markets remains weak.<\/p>\n

Key factors:<\/strong>
\n\u2013 India is actively buying DAP ahead of the peak season.
\n\u2013 Bangladesh and Pakistan are also creating additional demand.
\n\u2013 OCP is increasing supply volumes to India.
\n\u2013 MAP remains under pressure from weak demand in Brazil.
\n\u2013 The high cost of sulphur continues to support phosphate production costs.
\n\u2013 Risks around the Strait of Hormuz keep raw material supplies uncertain.<\/p>\n

BINFIELD assessment: DAP remains stronger than MAP thanks to demand in South Asia. The high cost of sulphur and limited supply form the lower price limit of the market, despite weak demand in Western regions.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n

Sulfur<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sulphur remains one of the key factors of the phosphate market. High raw material costs support the production costs of DAP, MAP, TSP and SOP, and supply complications via the Middle East increase the risks.<\/p>\n

BINFIELD assessment: as long as sulphur remains expensive and logistics risks persist, a significant decline in phosphate fertilizer prices is unlikely.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n

Potash fertilizers \/ MOP, SOP<\/strong><\/p>\n

The potash market remains stable with a weakening trend in most markets. The exception is the US, where limited supply and autumn demand support the market.<\/p>\n

Key factors:<\/strong>
\n\u2013 Bangladesh completed a large tender for standard MOP.
\n\u2013 Indonesia continues its tender activity.
\n\u2013 Chinese imports may slow down after significant supply volumes.
\n\u2013 In Brazil and other Western markets, seasonal demand remains weak.
\n\u2013 SOP remains relatively stable.<\/p>\n

BINFIELD assessment: for MOP, the base scenario remains stable with moderate downward pressure. Asian purchases restrain the decline, but high stocks and weak seasonal demand do not yet create conditions for sustained growth.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n

Overall conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n

The market enters September with a stronger nitrogen segment and a marked difference in phosphate dynamics. Urea is supported by active demand and logistics risks, DAP by demand from South Asia and the high cost of sulphur, while MAP and MOP remain under pressure from weak demand in Western markets.<\/strong><\/i>
\nThe main factors in the coming weeks are new Chinese export volumes, Indian demand, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz and raw material costs. For purchasing, the focus of risk is shifting from expecting lower prices to product availability and delivery times.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":1196,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"sections-articles":[40],"class_list":["post-1195","articles","type-articles","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sections-articles-analitics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/1195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"sections-articles","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/binfield.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sections-articles?post=1195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
