Market outlook forecast:

In terms of supply, maintenance equipment has been restored one after another, Nissan has been continuously improved, and market supply has become loose. As new production capacity is gradually put into production, Nissan may increase significantly. In terms of enterprises, the number of orders waiting for enterprises is gradually increasing. The National Day holiday is approaching, and most companies are making profits at low prices to collect orders. On the demand side, downstream procurement enthusiasm is still weak, mostly just in need of replenishment, and the market atmosphere is relatively weak.

On the whole, supply is currently continuing to recover, and companies are gradually transferring profits and absorbing orders. It is expected that the urea market price will mainly decline in the short term, and it is still necessary to continue to pay attention to the increase in Nissan in the later period.
