The Government of India has ensured record availability of fertilisers for farmers during the year 2024-25 to meet their agricultural needs in a timely manner. The Chemical and Fertilisers Ministry said that against an estimated national requirement of about 152.50 crore bags of fertilisers, the government ensured a total availability of around 176.79 crore bags.
The Ministry said that this surplus availability reflects the Government’s strong commitment to supporting farmers and maintaining uninterrupted agricultural activities across the country. It said that this achievement was made possible through close coordination among the Railway authorities, Port authorities, State Governments, and fertiliser companies.
The Ministry said that it held regular review meetings with fertiliser companies, continuously monitored demand and supply and resolved supply-related issues promptly. These proactive steps ensured that no region in the country faced a shortage of fertilisers.
