Outcome of Zonal Conference on Fertilizers for Kharif 2014

This conference discussed balanced fertilizer use, nutrient promotion, soil testing, and ICT tools for efficient fertilizer application. Emphasis was placed on promoting bio-fertilizers and organic manures to enhance nutrient value. Recommendations included converting DAP demand into SSP to improve cost-effectiveness.

  1. Outcome of Zonal Conference on Fertilizers for Kharif 2014

  2. ENSUING RABI SEASON 2013-14

  3. Sales vis-a-vis Requirement of Fertilizers up to January (31.01.2014)in Rabi 2013-14

  4. Sales vis-a-vis Requirement of DAP up to January (31.01.2014) in Rabi 2013-14

  5. Sales vis-a-vis Requirement of MOP up to January (31.01.2014) in Rabi 2013-14

  6. BALANCED USE OF FERTILIZERS

  7. Computed requirement vis-à-vis consumption‘N’ Nutrient

  8. Promotion of balanced use of fertilizers • Consumption of Urea (‘N’) to be curtailed in Andhra Pradesh, Punjab • Promoting Site Specific Nutrient Management (SSNM) • Soil testing based application of fertilizers • Use of soil fertility maps developed by IISS Bhopal • Use of area specific customized fertilizers • New ICT based Tool ‘Nutrient Expert’ developed by IPNI/CIMMYT for maize and wheat • Convert 5% of DAP demand into SSP demand as SSP is indigenously produced and cheaper fertilizer compared to DAP. In Nutrient value, it provides extra value for Ca and S • Micro-nutrients

  9. Soil Fertility Maps • Indian Institute of Soil Sciences (IISS) Bhopal has uploaded the soil fertility maps of about 170 districts of 19 major states on their website (www.iiss.nic.in/index.html) • These maps show status of availability of various nutrients ‘N’, ‘P’, ‘K’ etc in terms of low, high, medium etc. • INM Division is compiling the practices being adopted by various states in respect of soil tests /fertility maps based application of fertilizers

  10. Status of Nitrogen(‘N’) Nawada, Bihar Darbhanga, Bihar

  11. Status of Phosphorous(‘P’) Churu, Rajasthan Ganganagar, Rajasthan

  12. Status of Potassium (‘K’) Hoshiarpur, Punjab Bathinda, Punjab

  13. Status of Micronutrient ’Zn’ Akola, Maharashtra Nasik, Maharashtra

  14. Status of Micronutrient ’B’ Bhiwani, Haryana Hisar, Haryana

  15. INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT • Promote use of Bio-fertilizers 1. Phosphorous solublizing bio-fertilizers (PSB) • Current production of bio-fertilizers as per recommended dose of bio-fertilizers (kg/hectare) can cover only 10% of total gross cropped area of our country. • State Governments were requested to Start a campaign to Increase PSB coverage 2. Potash mobilizing bio-fertilizers (KMB) 3. Consortia Bio-fertilizers is also being notified in FCO • Use of Organic Manures/Green Manures

  16. FERTILIZER USE EFFICIENCY • To enhance fertilizer use efficiency, • Use of urea products such as neem coated urea, zincated urea, sulphur coated urea, urea briquettes etc may be promoted in place of plain urea

  17. Assessment of requirement of fertilizers for Kharif 2014

  18. All India Fertilizer requirement for Kharif 2014

  19. Comparison of Requirement of fertilizers in last two Kharif seasons

  20. THANK YOU
