Canada Ammonium Sulphate Prices Movement 2026
Canada recorded ammonium sulphate prices of USD 362/MT in September during Q3 2026. Tighter cross border availability and higher replacement costs across the North American nutrient supply chain lifted values through the quarter. Farm buying interest ahead of the autumn application window kept offtake steady from retailers and distributors, whose lean inventories restricted prompt volumes for spot buyers.
Japan Ammonium Sulphate Prices Movement 2026
Japan’s ammonium sulphate prices moved higher to USD 342/MT in September during Q3 2026. Import dependent buyers faced firmer replacement costs from major supplying origins during the quarter, lifting landed values. Fertilizer formulators and agricultural cooperatives sustained consistent offtake through the period, while cautious inventory positions held by distributors reduced flexibility for buyers seeking prompt delivery.
Germany Ammonium Sulphate Prices Movement 2026
Ammonium sulphate in Germany was priced at USD 392/MT in September 2026 (Q3). Europe’s reliance on imported material meant firmer freight rates and port handling charges pushed landed values higher. Steady demand from fertilizer blenders and agricultural distributors met tight availability of prompt material, which supported firmer producer offers, while conservative inventories limited volumes for spot buyers.
China Ammonium Sulphate Prices Movement 2026
Prices in China reached USD 182/MT in September 2026 (Q3), moving upward from a comparatively low level. Steady export demand absorbed surplus domestic output, and ample capacity from caprolactam and coke oven byproduct streams kept domestic availability comfortable through the quarter. Logistics costs between inland production sites and coastal export terminals added further pressure to delivered values.

What is Ammonium Sulphate?
Ammonium sulphate is an inorganic salt with the formula (NH₄)₂SO₄, traded mainly as a nitrogen- and sulfur-containing fertilizer and also as a technical and food-grade chemical. It is a white crystalline solid that dissolves readily in water. It is produced by reacting ammonia with sulfuric acid, and is also recovered as a byproduct of caprolactam manufacture and coke-oven gas treatment.
Factors Affecting Ammonium Sulphate Prices
Ammonium sulphate prices in Q3 2026 were shaped by ammonia feedstock costs at integrated producers, demand from fertilizer blenders and crop nutrient distributors, and availability of prompt granular material. Logistics costs, freight rates, port handling charges, and distributor inventory levels also influenced offers. In China, caprolactam and coke oven byproduct capacity kept domestic supply comfortable.
Supply and Prices Overview – Q3 2026
During Q3 2026, supply conditions differed by region. Prompt availability was limited in the USA, Canada, Japan, and Germany, where distributors held lean or cautious inventories. China had comfortable domestic availability from caprolactam and coke oven byproduct streams and remained the lowest priced market at USD 182/MT, while the USA was highest at USD 430/MT.
Ammonium Sulphate Price Index
The ammonium sulphate price index in Europe moved upward through Q3 2026, supported by firmer replacement costs and steady agricultural demand. In North America, the index also moved upward on tighter availability and steady crop nutrient demand. In Asia Pacific, the index moved upward on firm export demand and steady fertilizer consumption, with Japan recording higher landed values.
Ammonium Sulphate Market News – Q3 2026
