Why fertilizer companies lack enthusiasm for formula fertilizer

Recently, when reporters interviewed farmers in Shandong, Anhui, and Jiangsu for using spring fertilizers, they found that there were no chemical fertilizers for the distribution outlets of the township and township agricultural production enterprises, and they also processed and processed bagged formula fertilizers, and they did not see the dealers as nearby farmers. Delivery.
It is understood that in the early 1980s, China started the work of soil testing and formulating fertilization. In 2000, it also organized the “100 County Thousand Villages” soil testing and fertilizer application program. From 2005 to 2006, more than 600 counties across the country launched a test soil fertigation practice, accounting for 30% of the country's 2053 counties. The central government has earmarked a total of 700 million yuan in special funds. The application of soil testing and formula fertilization on such a large scale has not received widespread and widespread application despite the fact that it has received significant results. So far, the proportion of peasant households that can truly implement soil testing and formula fertilization has been less than 10%, and most regions still remain at the demonstration level. At present, the popularization of soil testing and fertilizer application technology is basically the singing of “one-corner opera” by the agricultural technology department. Fertilizer companies are the main body but their enthusiasm is not high.
Jiangsu Hengsheng Fertilizer Co., Ltd. is a large fertilizer company in Jiangsu Province. The chairman of the company told the reporter that the experimental soil testing and fertilizer application pilots organized by the state since 2005 were mainly implemented in the agricultural sector, and the subsidy funds were also issued to them. Companies do not know how to participate if they want to participate. The person in charge of several chemical fertilizer companies in Shandong complained that the “Provisional Measures for the Administration of Pilot Fertilizer for Pilot-scale Fertilization for Pilot Soil Testing” issued by the state in 2005 required that formula fertilizer processing enterprises should be made public in terms of production scale, product quality, after-sales service, and sales price. Tender selection, but it is implemented by the agricultural sector. Some processing companies are sponsored by the agricultural sector themselves, and it is impossible for chemical fertilizer companies to participate.
Dong Baoqiang, deputy general manager of Henan Yingqing Chemical Co., Ltd., said that the sales volume of processing and formula fertilizers is limited, and their urea sales in this county account for less than one-twentieth of the total production of the company, and they are also several thousand tons. Most of them are sold to foreign countries and it is of little significance to produce formula fertilizer. Like urea and compound fertilizers are general-purpose fertilizers that can be sold anywhere. Processing and production of formula fertilizer can only be sold and distributed in the local market, go to the field to measure soil and fertilizer, there is also a local farmer, agricultural technology department does not recognize the approval, support does not support the issue. With a small amount of sales, the enthusiasm for production is naturally small. This view has been proven in many companies. The strong targeting of fertilizers in the region and the limited sales of each formula fertilizer have become one of the main reasons why fertilizer companies are unwilling to produce.
Ji Jun, chief engineer of the Jilin Changshan Fertilizer Group, and a vice president of Anhui Wuyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. all think that now, like urea and compound fertilizers, they are relatively easy to sell and do not consider such new products. Moreover, their companies have been producing urea and compound fertilizers all the time. They have to use soil testing and fertilization, which involves technology, talents, etc. The work is also very tedious and is equivalent to cross-industry. In addition, as a production enterprise, the orientation and goal is to produce a qualified chemical fertilizer and sell the product as soon as possible, without considering the efficiency of fertilizer application.
In view of the low enthusiasm of fertilizer companies for the production of formulated fertilizers, relevant experts in agricultural technology promotion stated that soil testing and fertilizer application as an important leap in scientific fertilization in China will bring about a profound change in the production and circulation of chemical fertilizers. With the popularity of this technology, the use of chemical fertilizers will continue to decrease. This is a challenge for fertilizer companies and a good opportunity for development. Enterprises should change the kind of production and management methods that only apply fertilizer production, regardless of scientific research and development, and just sales regardless of after-sale technical services. At the same time, the state should also introduce policies to promote the complementary advantages and organic integration of fertilizer companies and agricultural technology promotion departments to form a marketing service system for soil testing and formula fertilization, which will be widely used by farmers.
