In June, the market of ammonium phosphate raw materials rose, and the demand for downstream compound fertilizer was still weak. The amount of pre-sale orders of monoammonium phosphate was large, and the price increased slightly. Monoammonium phosphate industry is more optimistic, but the downstream compound fertilizer follow-up is insufficient, against high prices.
