Therefore, downstream replenishment enthusiasm has gradually increased, and the trading atmosphere in some markets has improved. Specifically, prices in Northeast China rose to 1,960 - 2,160 yuan/ton. Prices in North China rose to 1,940 - 2,090 yuan/ton. Prices in Northwest China rose to 2040 yuan/ton.

Market outlook forecast:

In terms of futures, futures prices continued to rise during the week, bringing positive emotional support to the spot market. Observe the recent spot market: On the supply side, cost coal prices are weakening, factories are willing to produce, and new urea production capacity will be released in the long run. Therefore, supply may enter a surplus stage, and urea profits will passively expand as coal prices fall; On the demand side, some corn manure has been shipped in East China and North China, and the Northeast region has begun to enter the topdressing stage. Most compound fertilizer manufacturers produce on demand, and the industry continues to pick up. However, non-manufacturing real estate has been in a poor trend in the near future, and industrial demand has been unstable. Demand for urea is expected to increase slightly. Overall, the urea market may continue to fluctuate upward in the near future.
