Part 1: Ammonium Sulphate Nitrate - Overview As the fourth product of Waypoint's product series, we look at ASN a solid nitrogenous fertiliser with a nitrogen content of 26% and sulphur content of 13%. ASN's high ammonium nitrogen content allows for a sustainable nitrogen supply, and limited soil washing, while supporting the availability of secondary nutrients like manganese, iron, and boron. Its sulphur content supports protein synthesis and enzyme function.

Part 2: Ammonium Sulphate Nitrate - Crops The second of our 2-part series continues with an exploration of ASN's common crop applications and its pros and cons. ASN's combination of slow acting ammonium nitrogen (19%) and quick acting nitrate nitrogen (7%) allows for use prior to sowing as well as for topdressing. This product can be applied directly or bulk blended.

Ammonia is a key commodity, with large investments into Blue and Green ammonia imminent. It is a key resource for fertilisers, chemicals and energy. Chinese Ammonia exports decreased by 76.6% in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The August contract price for Ammonia in Tampa has been set at $475 USD per metric ton CFR, an increase from the July price of $415 USD per metric ton.

In our latest update, we've analysed key trends in the Chinese raw materials and fertilisers market. Notably, sulphur prices have risen sharply, while nitrogen and phosphate fertilisers show a mixed trend, reflecting both price drops and stability in various segments. Potassium fertilisers are experiencing stable to declining trends. As supply and procurement professionals, how can we navigate these fluctuations and leverage potential opportunities? #Supply #Procurement Waypoint Commodities

The recent Crowdstrike update outage highlights the global supply chain's heavy reliance on IT systems, revealing significant vulnerabilities when these systems fail. With many systems offline for an extended period, ports and shipping companies scrambled last week to manage the backlog in an already disrupted supply chain. The recovery process may take weeks as IT teams work to restore systems and ensure smooth operations. To mitigate future risks, businesses need to prioritise implementing redundant systems and backup plans to maintain operations during IT disruptions.
