On the 6th, the domestic urea market prices steadily increased

As of today, December 6, 2012, the domestic urea market has seen a gradual uptick in prices. Recent developments indicate that the market in Shandong Province has experienced a slight price hike due to an influx of new orders. This change seems to have had a ripple effect, with neighboring regions like Hebei, Henan, Jiangsu, and Anhui also reporting stable pricing trends. Currently, the price of urea in Shandong stands at approximately 1940-1980 yuan per ton. In Hebei, it's hovering around 1930-1970 yuan per ton, while in Henan, the range is between 1920-2000 yuan per ton. Meanwhile, Jiangsu is seeing prices at 2030-2060 yuan per ton, and in Anhong, urea factory prices are reported to be around 1980-2020 yuan per ton. Interestingly, the northeastern region has begun its winter storage season, yet manufacturer sales remain somewhat sluggish. Local urea producers are keeping their quotes steady at around 1950-2030 yuan per ton, while the wholesale price of urea in Liaoning has shown a minor uptick. Overall, the domestic urea market appears to be on the mend. Manufacturers across most regions report low inventory pressures, suggesting that the market may continue its upward trajectory in the near term. However, analysts predict that there won't be much room for further price increases in the coming weeks.
