his week potassium chloride market prices will remain stable trend, the potassium chloride market mainstream offer price at 1944 yuan / ton.

quotations analysis

Product: this week the potassium chloride market prices remain strong, the overall market performance is relatively light, although the emergence of downstream order phenomenon, but a wait-and-see attitude are not new single turnover. The shipment of domestic potassium eased slightly, various regions have different degrees of volume, Saline Lake group 60% station grain price in 1970 yuan / ton. The port, in the absence of demand to support the case, some traders realized psychological enhancement, resulting in prices slightly loose, 62% White Russian basic potassium in 2050-2080 yuan / ton, 60% Russian red potassium prices in 1960-1980 yuan / ton, a single on the actual.

Downstream industry chain: fertilizer plant devices continue to back production, the manufacturer of the whole device starts into about 5. The market demand gradually started, the market order enthusiasm slowly improved, operation support strong market to a certain extent.

Market forecast

At present, the major port dealer sales release, the venue can sell sufficient supply. Is expected in the short term price of potassium chloride will be relaxed.

From the disk, because the current demand in the doldrums, plastic spot and futures prices are weak, North China recent spot price has dropped to 10000 yuan / ton, but the price drop but is conducive to traders and downstream enterprises to actively promote material delivery, demand.

Sinopec is expected to gradually digest inventory pressure

During the Spring Festival, the domestic petrochemical enterprises have accumulated inventory, the week of February 3rd to a peak of polyethylene inventory accumulation, petrochemical stocks reached 980 thousand tons, an increase of 67%; port inventories increased 48%; total inventories increased 44.7%. The Spring Festival holiday spot market most closed, suspend the accumulation of a large number of stock circulation cause. At the same time, January polyethylene imports increase, port cargo export difficulties and other factors also lead to a substantial increase in the port inventory, part ofport full phenomenon.

Although the short-term polyethylene stocks sharply accumulation, but not too much pressure.

First, inventory accumulation is mainly affected by the effect of the Spring Festival, the market has long been expected, so the pressure on prices is not too large;

Second, after the first working day of the peak of 980 thousand tons of petrochemical stocks have slowly fall in;

Third, the recent Petrochemical stocks relatively the same period in three years is not high, the same period of 2014 inventory 1 million 150 thousand tons, the same period of 2015 inventory 950 thousand tons, inventory 940 thousand tons over the same period in 2016. Therefore, the short term, high inventory will have a certain pressure on the market, but the overall pressure is not too large. Is expected to accumulate 2 months late during the Spring Festival will gradually digest inventory, the possibility of PE price rebound.

In summary, the fundamentals of plastic quietly began from “no” to “Thailand” change, plastic prices are expected to rebound.

But after the southern mountain area of farmland in silence, looking around, there is no shelter grass green rice production, years of accumulated under the agricultural packaging waste pollution shocking. Ditch, pesticide bottles scattered messy, ridge next to no plastic tray burn free packing, wind projections, a small pile of herbicide bag was Roll Heaven, the air floated strange smell.

“A year grain seedling using County tens of millions of millions of bags, pesticide bottles, many are thrown in the fields, become a ‘bomb’ pollution!” recently, “Economic Reference News” in an interview with reporters in Hunan and other major agricultural province, many cadres and the masses, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, seedling such as agricultural new varieties to improve agricultural production efficiency emerge in an endless stream, at the same time, also increased the amount of agricultural packaging waste. The recovery system is not perfect, such as the old seedling tray, pesticide bottles, bags and other pesticides was largely abandoned in the fields, resulting in farmland pollution is becoming more complex, not all old waste, pollution and new arrival, makes the heart sick.

To improve the efficiency of agricultural upgrade

When the Southern farmers plowing agricultural reserve stage, with Hunan County of Hengyang agricultural supply, large grain of Liu Cuiqing believes that the past agricultural variety, supply shortages often, these problems are now gone for ever, ample supply of agricultural means of production, and agricultural upgrade, new varieties are more and more, brings convenience to agricultural production.

He said that with the seedling as an example, before or in the fields of direct seeding, either in nursery seedlings after transplanting to field in manual transplanting. Direct sowing while saving time and labor, but not a strong seedlings, encountered “unusually cold spell” cold dew wind “, will lead to a large area of dead seedlings. Nursery seedlings can improve the survival rate of seedlings, but the method is too traditional, time-consuming and laborious. In recent years, the tray is popularized, seedling raising process less cumbersome, seedling quality is guaranteed, the survival rate is greatly improved, also convenient for transplanting and throwing, save a lot of manpower.

Compared with the past, pesticide varieties are more and more. In the city of Xiangtan agricultural market, dealer Peng Jianlai said vividly before pesticide varieties, the toxicity is too large, the idea is similar to the farmers’ pesticide insecticide would rather kill one thousand, you can not let go of a”. In recent years, the wrong idea gradually reversed, according to the types of diseases and insect pests, pesticides are generally divided into a subdivision, insecticides, fungicides, acaricides, nematicides, rodenticides, defoliants, herbicides, plant growth regulators and other categories.

Peng Jianlai told reporters, each class consists of many types of pesticides, pesticides now common on the market about 100 kinds of pesticides, pesticide refinement, farmers are more targeted, more efficient and less pesticide, pesticide residues.

With all kinds of economic crop acreage increased, the plastic film is also a large number of entering the field of agricultural production, some become plastic, some become greenhouse film, popular with farmers welcome. Xiangtan County farmers Hu Xiaocheng told reporters that the film can maintain soil moisture, improve soil temperature, prevent pests and microorganisms can grow crops, in season vegetables, from the economic point of view, these bring a good agricultural economic accounts.

Although there is no substantial growth, the 2017 new year since international oil prices remained at $55, but if the Brent crude oil futures prices, compared to 2016 rose nearly $22 a barrel at the beginning of the year. From the industry point of view, pessimism facing the 2017 oil industry obviously compared to 2016 to ease a lot.

On the one hand, OPEC members continue to be exposed to cut news;

On the other hand, the United States is increasing the number of oil shale. Although compared to last year’s low, crude oil prices actually rose a lot, but for a large company legislator who, 2017 investment expansion will still not strong. In addition, liquefied natural gas (LNG) will usher in a much wider range of excess supply is also a important variable in 2017 or.

In fact, OPEC, shale oil and LNG like three huge undercurrent, the “fighting game” a situation of tripartite confrontation will determine the price trend in 2017.

In January 17th, BP’s chief executive, to the media said that this year the company’s annual investment remained below $17 billion, compared to $6 billion less 2014. The company in 2016 and finally out of the “Gulf of Mexico” quagmire, since the end of last year in the assets invested more than 4 billion dollars.

While the national producers in this round of rebound in oil prices played a very important role, in December last year, the organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and 11 countries reached an agreement to cut output, although the implementation of this agreement is to be audited, but many countries have begun to implement, and has certain effect in the market.

For Chinese, oil and gas market ushered in a more uncertain year in 2017 will be. “Compared to 2016 2017, there will be tens of millions of tons of the refinery production.” Anxunsi Chinese research director Li Li told reporters. In addition to the new capacity, refined oil wholesale market price war.

The decision to implement the lower limit of oil production

At present, the domestic mainstream market operators have turned the crash mode of methanol, for example, Inner Mongolia fell 230-280 yuan / ton, East China fell 80-100 yuan / ton, Shandong fell 190-260 yuan / ton, down in other areas, local.

The traditional downstream not to provide enough support for the methanol market:

At present, formaldehyde, dimethyl ether, acetic acid, two MTBE started as a whole were 30%, 20%, 80%, 50%, olefin started around 70-80%, the Spring Festival approaching, the majority of traditional downstream enterprises or will from the city, methanol demand will continue to weaken, the price will continue to fall.

People familiar with the market all know, the domestic methanol plummeted almost is about to start from mid December 2016. At that time, methanol imports profit has been narrowed to a few yuan from hundreds of yuan, import enthusiasm will decline, and support domestic methanol prices.

Through the above analysis can be found, the fundamentals of methanol is entering the “market freeze” period. At the end of a traditional downstream weakening, and the slowdown in the domestic olefins started as a whole; on the other hand, haze, snow and other special weather areas contain mainland Sinotrans goods cycle longer, take the goods inside the enthusiasm is not high, how to digest inventory based.

According to the signs that, years ago, the domestic methanol market prices will continue to decline. However, years after the return, with the downstream replenishment emotional drive, commodity market or periodic callback, methanol will be rising trend.

with China’s agricultural industry development, the use of herbicides for weed control by farmers more and more.

Not long ago, the safety and environmental protection problems such as paraquat herbicide and pesticide use is restricted to zero growth policy implementation, brings many challenges and changes to the future development of herbicide.

Bring the chain reaction of paraquat delisting crisis

In recent years, China has become the world’s largest pesticide producer and exporter. Herbicide resistance problem has become a serious problem in our country must pay attention to the. Paraquat delisting, as one of the successor of glyphosate since entering January, the country entered the period of light storage.

Some experts said that the next period of time, the pesticide industry will gradually break through the existing mode of marketing and development, realize the organic integration of new industry with the traditional way, enrich the development mode of market operation.

At present, domestic enterprises in China pesticide registration up to more than 2 thousand and 100, which including 675 enterprises, more than 2 thousand enterprises in preparation; sales of 100 million yuan and below up to more than 1800, most of the enterprises the main product category is single, economic strength and anti risk ability is weak. In 2015 the domestic preparation of the top 10 sales total sales of 9 billion 74 million yuan, the total output value of domestic pesticide use market according to the estimate of 40 billion yuan, the market concentration (CR10) of only about 23%, which belongs to the excessive competition in the industry. Over the years, the industry, scattered and weak characteristics significantly.

The main export varieties of Chinese pesticide glyphosate ranked first

Although in recent years in China pesticide market recession, but there is still a considerable part of pesticide products export sales, according to the relevant departments of statistics, as of 2016 China’s top 10 pesticide export volume has been officially released.

“The oil is in the global supply and demand rebalancing process, $40 / barrel bottom has been proven, in the OPEC agreement to cut output and consumption in the demand for rigid support, the bottom oil prices in 2017 will gradually rise, but the US shale oil and oil prices rose to restart or limit. Oil prices are expected in 50 to 75 U.S. dollars / barrel interval operation.” Hengtai chemical energy futures analyst Yu Tianbing said.

What is the main logic of methanol market operation in 2017?

How to supply the story will be staged? The first important point is: to admit the supply-demand balance now measure the domestic methanol market has been gradually transformed into the national market as the center of East China market. In 2017 the methanol will also be launched around this centre, to seek a new balance between demand and supply of the main source of new.

The time difference between the 2017 domestic methanol supply and demand exists, or after the first strong weak trend, the overall price of methanol will move the center of gravity to 2600 yuan / ton, the upper limit is MTO device profit effect, the first pressure or in 3000 yuan / ton, second pressure in 3500 yuan / ton, the cost of supporting under consideration is expected in 2200 2300 yuan / ton range.

“The oil center of gravity, the cost of supporting the olefin enhanced, while the downstream products and terminal demand good performance, the industry overall inventories remain low, the continuation of the 2017 restocking market, but the continuous release of new capacity or limit or PP, see above 11000 yuan / ton, LLDPE above 12000 yuan / ton.” Yu Tianbing believes that in the crude oil driven by the increase in the overall cost of downstream chemicals. At the same time, the industry overall inventory is low, is expected to start restocking market. Specifically, all varieties of target: PTA on 7000 yuan / ton, methanol reached 3500 yuan / ton, asphalt is expected to reach 3500 yuan / ton.

Industry insiders bluntly, the most likely impact for natural rubber supply. Because of the weather factors, leading to the reduced supply of rubber. From the output data, in 2016 the vast majority of gum in yield than in 2015 dropped to a certain extent. Some countries, such as India, Malaysia, in the years of low yield.
