Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Core Viewpoints - At the end of February, domestic spring plowing will start from south to north, combined with top - dressing of wheat and the gradual resumption of production in industrial downstream, urea will enter the peak demand season, and the post - holiday demand is expected to be good.
