In terms of raw materials, the prices of raw materials sulfur and phosphate rock fluctuated, the price of synthetic ammonia continued to fall, and the price on the cost side fell. On the whole, the current cost-side support in the diammonium market has weakened, companies have received a small number of new orders, and the market operation is still weak.
