Market Overview
Zinc Sulphate prices in Germany, the highest-cost reporting region, rose 6.1% in H1 2026, climbing from USD 0.659/KG in Q1 to USD 0.699/KG by Q2 as firmer zinc metal and sulphuric acid feedstock costs and recovering agricultural micronutrient fertiliser, water treatment, and rayon fibre production procurement reversed the brief Q1 2026 pricing correction. Globally, the average rose from USD 0.489/KG in Q1 to USD 0.519/KG in Q2, a 6.0% gain. For H2 2026, a global average of USD 0.522-0.582/KG is expected, with continued firming on Middle East supply disruptions and growing agricultural micronutrient and industrial zinc sulphate sector demand globally.
Zinc Sulphate is an inorganic salt produced by dissolution of zinc metal, zinc oxide, or zinc ore concentrates in dilute sulphuric acid, followed by purification and crystallisation to yield either the monohydrate ZnSO4 monohydrate at above 35 percent zinc content or the heptahydrate grade, with the monohydrate dominant for bulk agricultural applications due to higher zinc content, lower shipping cost per unit zinc, and better flowability in granular blending. The largest pull comes from agricultural zinc micronutrient fertiliser applications, where zinc deficiency is among the most prevalent and impactful micronutrient conditions globally, particularly affecting paddy rice, wheat, maize, and vegetable yields on calcareous and alkaline soils across South Asia, China, and dryland regions, applied as soil or foliar zinc correction. Water treatment corrosion inhibition in cooling towers and reservoirs, viscose rayon spin bath coagulation chemistry, pharmaceutical zinc supplement formulation, and electroplating bath additive add significant further demand. Zinc metal LME price, sulphuric acid costs, agricultural sector zinc demand, and regional production capacity all feed into the price.
Zinc Sulphate Price Forecast for 2026
The balance of supply and demand for Zinc Sulphate through H2 2026 leans moderately firm. Zinc metal LME prices and sulphuric acid costs firmed from Middle East and mining supply disruptions. Agricultural zinc micronutrient programme procurement is growing with expanding zinc-deficiency correction in South Asian and Chinese cereal crop production, and industrial and water treatment demand is recovering.
The main upside risk is sharp zinc metal LME price increases alongside accelerating agricultural micronutrient programme procurement. The main downside risk is continued Chinese zinc sulphate production surplus maintaining competitive price pressure below the forecast range.

| China | 0.376 - 0.436 | Large production capacity keeps it the most affordable |
| Germany | 0.671 - 0.731 | High zinc import and energy costs keep it the most expensive |
| India | 0.521 - 0.581 | Growing agricultural micronutrient and industrial demand holds firm |

Prices respond mainly to zinc metal LME prices, sulphuric acid availability, agricultural planting season procurement cycles, and zinc mining output. Zinc LME spot prices and paddy rice and wheat planting data are key upstream signals.
China holds the largest zinc sulphate production capacity, followed by India, Europe, and North America. Any zinc metal LME price shift ripples across markets within one quarter.
Buyers can use quarterly trends and forecasts to time agricultural micronutrient and industrial contracts around zinc LME cost cycles, build cover when zinc metal signals tighten, and monitor paddy rice and wheat planting seasons as primary demand signals.
