International sulfur trading market has experienced a slow transaction period, and then the rated price of the second quarter satisfied the importers. They began to realize the profit space of the price decline of spot trading, so that their activities have increased significantly. The sulfur price of the Middle East was close to 100 U.S. dollars / ton due to the buyer intended to control it below 140 U.S. dollars / ton. Recently in the Chinese market, price for a large particle sulfur business was still 150 to 155 U.S. dollars / ton, but we do believe that it would be down very soon to match the current international situation. We believe that the price of the pesticides related will be changed according to the change of raw materials.
