## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CHEMICALS & FERTILIZERS

(SMT. ANUPRIYA PATEL)

- (a) to (e) Following steps are taken by the Government every season for ensuring timely and adequate availability of fertilizers in the country:
- (i) 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.
- (ii) On the basis of requirement projected by DA&FW, D/o Fertilizers allocates adequate  quantities  of  fertilizers  to  States  by  issuing  monthly  supply  plan  and continuously monitors the availability.
- (iii) The movement of all major subsidized fertilizers is monitored throughout the country  by  an  on-line  web-based  monitoring  system  called  integrated  Fertilizer Management System (iFMS).

- (iv) The State Governments are regularly advised to coordinate with manufacturers and importers for streamlining the supplies through timely placement of indents.
- (v) The distribution  of fertilizers  within  the  State  at  district level  is  done  by  the concerned State government.

Further, the availability  of fertilizers viz.  Urea,  DAP, MOP and NPKS has remained adequate across the States during the last three seasons i.e. Kharif 2024, Rabi 202425,  and  Kharif  2025  season.  The  state-wise  information  regarding  requirement, availability and sales of these fertilizers during the said seasons is placed at AnnexureA .

Moreover,  with  a  view  to  ensuring  the  availability  of  Urea  to  farmers  at  affordable prices,  Urea  is  supplied  under  the  Urea  Subsidy  Scheme  at  a  statutorily  notified Maximum Retail Price (MRP). The MRP of 45 kg bag of Urea is Rs. 242 per bag (exclusive of charges towards neem coating and taxes as 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 rate.

Further, for Phosphatic and Potassic (P&K) fertilizers, the Government  has implemented  Nutrient  Based  Subsidy  Policy  w.e.f.  01.04.2010.  Under  NBS  policy, P&K fertilizers are covered under Open General License (OGL) and companies are free to import / manufacture these fertilizers as per their business dynamics. The NBS subsidy is provided to manufacturer / importer on notified P&K fertilizers on its PoS sale during the season, depending on their nutrient content to ensure availability of fertilizers  to  farmers.  The  volatility  in  international  prices  of  key  fertilizers  and  raw materials is  considered  while  fixing  NBS  rates  for  P&K  fertilizers  so  that  fertilizers remain affordable to the farmers

Besides, to make DAP available at affordable price of Rs. 1,350 per 50 kg bag, special provisions like Rs. 3,500 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 Rabi 2025-26 season to keep the prices of fertilizers stable.

Furthermore,  in  order  to  address  the  issues  of  diversion,  hoarding  and  blackmarketing, fertilizers  are  declared  as  an  essential  commodity  under  the  Essential Commodities  Act,  1955  and  notified  under  Fertilizer  Control  Order,  1985.  State Governments  are  empowered  to  take  action  against  persons  involved  in  said malpractices, as per provisions of EC Act. Any complaints received at Department of Fertilizers level regarding these malpractices is sent to concerned State Government to  take  appropriate  action  under  Essential  Commodities  Act,  1955  and  Fertilizer Control Order, 1985. Accordingly, the information regarding enforcement measures taken by the States, as informed by them, from 01.04.2025 to 30.01.2026, to curb these malpractices is placed at Annexure-B .
