Analysis of raw salt output in the first half of the year: According to the latest statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics, domestic raw salt output in the first half of 2024 totaled 27.03 million tons, an increase of 6.864 million tons compared with 20.166 million tons in the same period in the first half of last year, an increase of 34.04%. Among the raw salt output in the first half of the year, the raw salt output from January to June showed an increasing trend compared with the same period last year. There are two main reasons for this. On the one hand, my country's raw salt production capacity continues to increase, and the high production capacity leads to a synchronous increase in raw salt output. On the other hand, the utilization rate of enterprises 'equipment has increased, the start-up situation of equipment is relatively high, and the capacity utilization rate is high. Among them, the output in June increased relatively significantly compared with the same period last year. In June 2024, my country's raw salt output was approximately 8.073 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 24.5%. In addition, my country's raw salt output situation is similar to that of the same period last year, and my country's raw salt output shows a trend of increasing month by month.

Analysis of the situation of various raw salt producing areas in the first half of the year: Judging from the distribution areas of raw salt production, North China is the largest region in my country's total raw salt production in the first half of 2024. Specifically, in the first half of 2024, my country's raw salt production areas will be distributed in the seven major regions of the country, Northeast, North China, Central China, East China, Northwest, Southwest and South China. Among them, North China, Central China and East China are the main production areas of my country's raw salt in the first half of the year.

Among them, judging from the production output data of various raw salt producing areas in my country in the first half of the year, in the first half of 2024, the total output of raw salt production in North China was about 8.4993 million tons, accounting for 31.44% of the country's total raw salt output, reaching nearly one-third of the level; among them, Shandong Province's total raw salt production from January to June reached 6.369 million tons, accounting for 23.56% of the country's total output, making it the largest raw salt production province in the country; The salt-producing categories in North China include lake salt, well ore salt, and sea salt. The total output of raw salt production in Central China ranks second in the country. In the first half of the year, the total output of raw salt production was about 5.1241 million tons, accounting for 18.96% of the country's total raw salt output. Among them, Hubei Province ranks third in raw salt production in my country, with a total output of 3.0366 million tons; the salt production category in Central China mainly includes well ore salts. In the first half of the year, the total raw salt production in East China ranked third in the country. The cumulative output in the first half of the year was about 4.9768 million tons, accounting for 18.41% of the country's total raw salt output. It was only 147,300 tons different from the output in Central China, which ranked second in the production area. Among them, Jiangsu Province ranks second in raw salt production in my country, with a total output of 3.709 million tons; the salt production categories in East China mainly include well ore salt and sea salt. The total raw salt production in the northwest region in the first half of the year was 4.0719 million tons, accounting for 15.06% of the country's total raw salt output. In the first half of the year, the total raw salt production in Southwest China was 3.9653 million tons, accounting for 14.67% of the country's total raw salt output. However, the Northeast and South China regions produce relatively small amounts of raw salt, with 332,000 tons and 60,500 tons respectively, accounting for less than 2%.
