According to Baichuan Yingfu statistics, as of June 21, the average market price of sulfur was 9,500 yuan/ton, with prices falling sharply after the easing of US-Iran tensions. In the short term, sulfur demand has experienced negative feedback due to declining phosphate fertilizer production, and if US-Iran tensions continue to ease, sulfur costs will inevitably return to a more rational range. Leading enterprises can ensure cost control through diversified methods such as securing supply sources and purchasing smelting acid. Since May, smelting acid prices have decoupled from sulfur prices due to limitations such as transportation radius. In the medium term, the phosphogypsum-to-sulfuric-acid production process is mature, and industry leaders possess the capital expenditure capability and planning required; after these leading enterprises' projects are gradually put into operation, domestic sulfur supply pressure will be greatly relieved. Fertilizer demand is less sensitive to oil price fluctuations and benefits from the upside potential during grain price increases. Transportation restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz, combined with rising international sulfur and gas prices, have pushed up global fertilizer prices. The impact of insufficient fertilizer supply during peak spring farming season and reduced willingness of farmers to use fertilizers may be reflected in grain prices later, around the second half of 2026 to the first half of 2027. Coupled with low downstream inventories, fertilizer demand is both defensive and offers upward potential.
