Realizing the full potential of biofertilisers requires strengthened R&D efforts, targeted technology development and robust industrial infrastructure, along with improved research– extension linkages and decentralized production systems

Natural farming is vital for improving physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil on sustainable basis. It should be given more impetus, wherever, feasible.

Union Budget 2026-27 reflects the government’s intent to sustain high economic growth through continuity, investment-led expansion, and rural support.

The Indian fertiliser industry has responsibly been ensuring availability of fertilisers across the country to the farmers. Fertiliser management in all aspects from production, distribution, marketing and application have to be aligned to the same objective of sustainability in each element of value chain.

Fertiliser management at every step of supply chain will play significant role in sustainable growth in farm productivity and help in achieving climate goals.

The future of agriculture lies in the convergence of smart agri-food systems, environmental stewardship, and sustainable agronomy.
