Clicks: 18. “The sales of urea containing alginic acid produced by Urumqi Petrochemical are excellent!” Farmers are now lining up to place orders. ”On April 11, Jia Mingjun, deputy general manager of Changnong Agricultural Production Materials Co., Ltd. in Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, said. In the first quarter of this year, the company sold 23,000 tons of urea containing alginic acid produced by Urumqi Petrochemical Company, thereby helping to prepare for spring plowing in the Xinjiang region. Since Wushi Petrochemical successfully developed urea containing alginic acid, the excellent quality of this product has generated a strong response in the market; word of mouth from customers has led to an increase in orders year after year. According to Hu Chengnian, head of the Chemical Sales Section in Urumqi Petrochemical’s Marketing and Logistics Department, Urumqi Petrochemical strictly adheres to the 24-word marketing philosophy of the group company, organizing production and sales activities on an order-based basis. All products, including urea alginate, are produced and sold in their entirety; in the first quarter of this year, sales volume increased by five times compared to the previous year. In Niuquanzihu Village, Laolonghé, Yushugou, Changji, Xinjiang, farmer Li Xiaotong is busy working in the fields. As a long-time customer of Wushihua’s urea products, Li Xiaotong purchased some urea containing alginic acid in 2021 and tried using it in certain cotton fields. “Last year, we experienced a late spring cold spell; I planted cotton in May. To my surprise, the yield per mu from the cotton fields using urea containing alginic acid was nearly 30 kilograms higher than that of my neighbors’ fields! ”Li Xiaotong told reporters that, thanks to the positive experience from last year, he purchased 32 tons of urea containing alginic acid at once this year, using this new type of urea, which boosts yields significantly, in both 500 mu of wheat fields and 500 mu of cotton fields. “Urea containing alginic acid achieved the yield increase target for all the crops in our experiments, with the fertilizer application amount reduced by 20% compared to conventional urea. ”Ma Ning, a doctor from Shandong Agricultural University and manager of the R&D department at Wuzhoufeng Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., said that the new urea product developed by Urumqi Petrochemical aligns with the currently implemented “dual reduction of fertilizers and pesticides” initiative, and offers significant ecological benefits. It also shows significant effects in increasing cotton yields, with an increase of 7%-16% per mu, which will play an important role in promoting Xinjiang’s cotton textile industry and contributing to the rural revitalization of the region.
