During Q4’25, Ziram prices showed a mostly stable to slightly firm trend in the global market. The movement was largely influenced by raw material availability and cautious buying behaviour from end users. Feedstock markets linked to amines and sulfur-based chemicals stayed mostly balanced, which helped prevent sharp cost swings for Ziram producers. While some input costs moved unevenly, suppliers managed production carefully to avoid excess inventories.
Demand from the agrochemical sector remained steady but restrained, as buyers focused on meeting immediate seasonal needs rather than building stocks. Many customers preferred contract-based purchases and avoided forward buying due to uncertain crop demand and margin pressure. This cautious demand limited any strong upward movement in Ziram prices.
On the supply side, manufacturers maintained controlled operating rates, aligning production closely with confirmed orders. This approach reduced spot availability in some regions and helped support the market. Overall, the market stayed balanced, with neither strong demand nor oversupply dominating the quarter.

In Q3’25, Ziram prices in Asia saw mild downward pressure, mostly due to balanced inventory levels and moderate demand. The agricultural sector supported steady consumption, especially in crop protection, but buyers remained cautious. Instead of bulk purchases, many distributors focused on clearing existing stock, which kept market activity soft.
Production costs slightly eased during the quarter. Prices of raw materials like DMA showed a downward trend in mid-September, which reduced some cost pressure on Ziram manufacturers. However, this benefit was limited, as the overall market mood stayed cautious and speculative buying was low.
In China, adequate Ziram supply and sufficient inventories held back any sharp price increase. Similarly, in India, demand remained stable, and producers kept operations aligned with actual orders to avoid stock build-up. Throughout the region, pricing was mostly stable with a slight downward tilt by the end of the quarter.
Ziram is a coordination compound of Zinc with dimethyl dithiocarbamate. It is a pale-yellow solid used as a broad-spectrum fungicide. It addresses scabs, leaf curls , brown rot and blight in plants and should be sprayed before the infection. As a protectant fungicide, Ziram remains active on the plant's surface, where it forms a chemical barrier between the plants and fungus. It can be directly sprayed on plants or via soil treatment.
