Europe Ammonium Sulphate Price
Q2 2024:
In the second quarter of 2024, the ammonium sulphate prices in Europe witnessed a drop, primarily due to weakened demand alongside unfavorable weather conditions, which hindered agricultural operations. Extreme weather events, such as windstorms and torrential rain, resulted in flooded fields and postponed sowing timelines, which decreased the demand for fertilizers such as ammonium sulphate. Despite inconsistent charges of raw materials such as sulfuric acid and ammonia, the overall impact on prices was muted on account of low demand. Germany, notably, saw the steepest decline, with bad weather and altered agricultural timetables contributing to a substantial yearly decrease, reflecting the overall regional market downturn.
Q1 2024:
During Q1 2024, the market in Europe faced significant challenges, with Germany experiencing a notable price decline due to decreased need from the fertilizer market coupled with a supply surplus. Adverse climate patterns throughout Europe, varying from cold snaps, heavy rain, and periods of drought, impacted farming, further weakening market demand. Despite a Brief closure of the Novomoskovskiy Azot plant, prices remained unaffected. Traders employed numerous strategies to manage inventory, but prices persistently fell across the quarter.

North America Ammonium Sulphate Price
Q2 2024:
In the second quarter of 2024, the product prices in North America rose at the start of the quarter's two months, mainly due to robust demand from the farming sector in response to beneficial cultivation environment and increased fertilizer usage. Higher costs of key ingredients, including sulfuric acid and ammonia, drove production expenses up, further elevating prices. Supply constraints were exacerbated by logistical disruptions and decreased export operations as a result of shallow water in key shipping lanes. Nevertheless, during the last month, prices experienced a slight decline due to planting delays brought on by geomagnetic storms and atypical weather patterns. Along with sufficient supply and restrained buying patterns, this helped to ease the market constraints.
Q1 2024:
During Q1 2024, the market in North America saw positive trends, primarily due to increased demand from both local and Latin American fertilizer industries. Improved climatic conditions spurred domestic agricultural activities, while a rebound in Latin American crop planting further boosted demand. However, severe winter weather, including bitter cold and heavy snowstorms, resulted in significant production disruptions, such as plant shutdowns in Tennessee and Texas. Moreover, a malfunction in an ammonia pipeline exacerbated the scarcity of this crucial raw material, pushing up production costs and causing a notable increase in product prices from last year.

Asia Pacific Ammonium Sulphate Price
Q2 2024:
In Q2 2024, the Asia-Pacific market faced a significant rates downturn initially. This is supported byreduced freight rates and a surplus supply exceeding demand due to export limitations by key suppliers. Lower need from the agricultural sector, following peak seasonal consumption, further pressured prices downwards. Weather disruptions, including intense rainfall and snowstorms, restricted farming operations, decreasing the demand for fertilizers. However, in the latter part of the quarter, prices rose as stable demand amid excess supply and limited international inquiries created a surplus, adding decreasing pressure on market prices, particularly in China, where bearish market sentiment prevailed.
Q1 2024:
During Q1 2024, the Asia-Pacific market, particularly in South Korea, experienced a sharp rise in prices. This rise was driven by strong, ongoing requirement from the fertilizer industry amid economic instability and was further intensified by supply chain interruptions. Key factors included a lack of exports from China, forcing buyers to seek alternative suppliers. These issues resulted in increased production prices and prompted changes in sourcing approaches, contributing to the overall price hike in the region by the end of the quarter.
