International ammonium sulfate prices rise steadily

Last week, international ammonium sulfate prices continued to climb steadily across major markets. The bulk ammonium sulfate FOB prices remained stable in key regions, with the Baltic Sea and Black Sea both reporting rates between $110 and $112 per ton. In China, the FOB price held steady at $114–$115 per ton, reflecting a strong market demand. On the CIF basis, Southeast Asian markets saw some upward movement, with prices ranging from $142 to $148 per ton. Notably, the low end of the range increased by $3, while the high end rose by $6, indicating growing pressure on supply chains. Meanwhile, Brazil maintained its CIF price at $144–$146 per ton, showing relative stability despite global trends. The overall increase in prices is attributed to rising production costs, limited availability of raw materials, and sustained demand from agricultural sectors. As the market continues to evolve, traders and buyers are closely monitoring developments in key regions to adjust their strategies accordingly.
