# Fertilizer Outlook - Good news from China :: Content :: Tập đoàn Hoá chất Việt Nam (Vinachem)

> China is again selling urea into export markets after largely retreating earlier in 2018, pushing Gulf urea prices down $3 to $285.45 per tonne, about $22 below mid-October highs. Ammonia prices held steady over Thanksgiving week but are expected to ease into winter, and Chinese plants have cut output to curb pollution and due to lost natural gas feed.

## Why it matters

Renewed Chinese urea exports add supply to the world market and offset some of the tariff-related pain in trade, pressuring global nitrogen prices lower. Any further plant curtailments in China could limit that downside.
