  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The probability of an increase in urea production is high due to the recovery of previously shut - down devices and considering short - term enterprise malfunctions. The agricultural demand release has slowed down, and urea enterprises have made appropriate price concessions for transactions. The compound fertilizer's recent improvement in sales has led to a phased increase in its operating rate, and industrial demand has increased moderately. The compound fertilizer operating rate is expected to decline steadily or remain stable. The decline in urea enterprise inventory this week is mainly due to the implementation of new export policies, which have boosted the domestic trading atmosphere and improved the sales of urea enterprises. However, after the urea price increased, the new order transactions of factories slowed down, and the inventory of some enterprises rebounded. It is expected that urea enterprises will continue to reduce inventory slightly in the short term. The UR2601 contract is expected to fluctuate in the range of 1625 - 1670 in the short term [2]. 3.
