Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Neutral; - Inter - period: 09 - 01 reverse spread; - Inter - variety: None [3] 2) Core Viewpoints - Downstream agricultural demand is in the off - season, while downstream industrial demand is gradually increasing. The compound fertilizer industry has entered the autumn fertilizer production season with increased production rates but maintains just - in - time procurement. Urea production remains at a high level, and upstream inventory is still relatively high year - on - year. With new production capacity coming on stream, future urea supply will continue to rise. The profit of coal - based urea is acceptable, but cost - side support is weak. August is the export window period, and urea exports continue. Port inventory fluctuates slightly, and the export volume is expected to change little. Attention should be paid to the impact of export - related information on market sentiment [2] 3) Summary by Directory I.
