The international market is quite volatile. In recent years, there has been geo-political disruptions. In spite of that, the fertiliser industry in tandem with the Government has been ensuring availability of fertilisers to the farmers.

This is the high time that the State Governments should come forward to provide a level playing field to the fertiliser companies under PMPRANAM Scheme to promote new-age fertilisers along with traditional fertilisers among the farmers for sustainable agriculture.

Strengthening the soil–plant– animal–human continuum through effective micronutrient management offers one of the most cost-effective and sustainable pathways for achieving food and nutritional security in India

The fertiliser industry is demonstrating leadership in sustainability by embracing energy efficiency, conserving water, reducing emissions, protecting biodiversity, and exploring renewable pathways

Concerted and collaborative efforts of the industry, Governments, and all concerned stakeholders will go a long way to improve NUE for betterment of soil health, farm productivity and the farmers.

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
