## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CHEMICALS AND FERTILIZERS (SMT. ANUPRIYA PATEL)

(a) to (e): Urea is provided to the farmers at a statutorily notified Maximum Retail Price (MRP) irrespective of the cost of production. The subsidized MRP of 45 kg bag of urea is Rs.242 per bag (exclusive of charges towards neem coating and taxes applicable). The  difference  between  the  delivered  cost  of  urea  at  farm  gate  and  net  market realization by the urea units is given as subsidy to the urea manufacturer/importer by the  Government  of  India.  Accordingly,  all  farmers  are  being  supplied  urea  at  the subsidized rates.

In  case  of  Phosphatic  and  Potassic  (P&K)  fertilizers,  Government  has implemented  Nutrient  Based  Subsidy  (NBS)  Policy  w.e.f.  01.04.2010.  Under  the policy, a fixed amount of subsidy, decided on annual/bi-annual basis, is provided to manufacturer  /  importer  on  subsidized  P&K  fertilizers  depending  on  their  nutrient content i.e. Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K) and Sulphur (S). Under NBS Scheme, P&K fertilizers are decontrolled and fertilizer companies are allowed to fix MRP  as  per  market  dynamics  at  reasonable  level  which  is  monitored  by  the Government. The fluctuations in international prices of key fertilizers are subsumed while fixing NBS rates for P&K fertilizers annually / bi-annually to ensure affordable supply of P&K fertilizers to the farmers. Further, to make DAP available at affordable price of Rs. 1350 per 50 kg bag, special provisions like Rs. 3500 per MT to cover 'Other Costs' which includes costs incurred from factory gate to farm gate, advantage / disadvantage due to increase / decrease in international prices, provision for GST component included in the MRP and  provision  for  reasonable  return  @  4%  of  net  MRP  (MRP-GST)  have  been extended to both imported and domestic DAP and imported TSP over and above NBS subsidy for Kharif 2025 and Rabi 2025-26 seasons. The  availability  of  fertilizers  viz.  Urea,  DAP,  MOP  and  NPK  has  remained adequate in the country during the last three FYs i.e. 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25. The information regarding requirement, availability and sales of these fertilizers during the said period is placed at Annexure . Further,  to  ensure  timely  and  adequate  supply  of  fertilizers  in  the  country, before the commencement of each cropping season, Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare (DA&FW), in consultation with all the State Governments, assesses the state-wise & month-wise requirement of fertilizers. On the basis of requirement projected,  Department  of  Fertilizers  allocates  sufficient/  adequate  quantities  of fertilizers  to  States  by  issuing  monthly  supply  plan  and  continuously  monitors  the availability. The movement of all major subsidized fertilizers is monitored throughout the  country  by  an  on-line  web-based  monitoring  system  called  integrated  Fertilizer Monitoring System (iFMS). Regular Weekly Video Conference is conducted jointly by DA&FW and D/o Fertilizers with State Agriculture Officials and corrective actions are taken to dispatch fertilizers as indicated by the State Governments.
