Group 1 - The global fertilizer market is entering a high-price and tight balance phase, with ongoing supply disruptions in overseas nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers leading to an upward shift in price levels. Potash is expected to see high cost-performance demand potentially exceeding expectations [1][2] - As of January 22, 09:44, the chemical ETF (159870.SZ) rose by 0.55%, and the related index for segmented chemicals (000813.CSI) increased by 0.74%. Key constituent stocks such as Wanhua Chemical rose by 1.07%, Jinhai Technology by 3.44%, Cangge Mining by 1.68%, Hebang Bio by 6.17%, and Hengli Petrochemical by 1.60% [1] - In the nitrogen fertilizer sector, due to risks in Iran and the Middle East, the FOB price for granular urea in the Middle East is currently between $420 and $430 per ton, while the CFR price for urea in Brazil and Southeast Asia is between $430 and $440 per ton. China will not lift urea exports during the spring plowing season, indicating that the global urea market has entered a new high-price platform [1] Group 2 - In the phosphate fertilizer sector, China's sulfuric acid exports halved from January to April, raising global phosphate production costs. From January to August, phosphate exports were suspended, reducing global phosphate supply. The CFR prices for MAP and DAP in Brazil have increased by approximately $40 per ton since the beginning of the year, currently ranging between $680 and $700 per ton, supported by rising sulfur/sulfuric acid costs [2] - For potash, the CFR prices in Brazil and Southeast Asia are currently between $360 and $380 per ton, showcasing a prominent cost-performance advantage compared to nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers. Institutions believe that the demand for potassium chloride may further replace nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers by 2%-3% [2] - Since 2024, there has been strong demand for potash from China, India, and Brazil, with current inventories at low levels, indicating significant potential for further increases in global potash prices [2]
