Nano Urea has been provisionally included in Fertilizer Control Order (FCO) 1985. In the preliminary trials, Nano-urea spray on different crops gave comparable yields to those obtained under fully recommended doses of fertilizers, with savings on top-dressed nitrogen.

Nano Fertilizers hold great promise for application in plant nutrition because of their size-dependent qualities, high surface-to-volume ratio, and unique optical properties. Nano Fertilizer releases plant nutrients in a controlled manner, contributing to higher nutrient use efficiency.

In this context, participate & send your ideas regarding innovations in the Fertilizer Sector, which can help increase farmers’ income.

Last date of submission is 14th February 2023.

Improves Environment: It will also have a huge positive impact on the quality of underground water, a very significant reduction in global warming with an impact on climate change and sustainable development.

Improves Plant Nutrition: It has been found effective and efficient for plant nutrition which increases production with improved nutritional quality. It will boost a balanced nutrition program by reducing the excess use of Urea application in the soil and will make the crops stronger, healthier and protect them from the lodging effect.

Nano Urea is cost-effective and required in low quantities. The most critical benefit of using Nano Urea for agriculture is its minimal impact on the environment. This will result in reducing the release of greenhouse gasses and improve the quality of air and water.

Dear Sirs, there are two main aspects to augment Fertilisers for our farms. 1. Recycling, vegetables market waste, in all Urban and Semi-urban habitations. Huge quantities of all types, leaves stems tubers roots, flowers and fruits are thrown away every day in every town and cities. These along with with other organic waste make full compliment for plant nutrition and provision should be made to utilise them in nearby structures, for compost processes. 2. Rock phosphate sulphate and such other fertilizer rocks are again a plenty all over our nation. Addition of these rock dusts would provide most of the macro and micro nutrients for all crops. one reason what makes Gangetic plains so fertile for ages. This natural phenomenon has to be harnessed, atleast in those mountainous areas where there is seasonal slips, those are simply left as mud slips , such must be collected processed with out harm to environmental conditions, and added to other fertilizer wherever necessary, ..

The farmers should able to get the fertilizer without any mediator and also should encourage the farmers adopting organic farming yo get organic fertilizers.

Good to know about the controlled-release fertilizers! There are symbiotic relationships in nature. One idea is to test the feasibility of using Biostimulants (microorganisms or plant extracts) at crop level to improve plant growth and health. If biostimulants are successful, it would reduce the need for chemical fertilizers altogether. Thank you 🙏

Precision Agriculture is being used in other countries. The farmers in India may use technology like sensors, drones, and GPS mapping to optimize fertilizer application, increasing efficiency and reducing waste. Since the small farmers would not be able to afford expensive technologies, such technologies should be made available at the local level with finance options. Thank you!
