ACHIEVEMENTS Consumption of Fertilizers ( in NPK) has increased to 84.02 kg/ha from 52.11 kg/ha during the last five years. Still it is far below the national average Constraints in timely supply Large distances from ports / factories Bottlenecks at ports Availability of railway rakes More transit time Large geographical area of the State Thin railway network Increase road transportation Inadequate storage capacity Weak credit structure Weak economical condition of farmers Less purchasing power Less ability for advanced procurement and storage Fertilizers’ requirement: Issues
Fertilizers’ requirement: Issues (Cont..) • Arrangements made for Kharif 2011 by State Government • Assessment for Kharif 2011 requirements made • Increased support to MARKFED for import of DAP and pre-positioning this year • Funds • Government Guarantee • Compensation for interest / storage charges /maintenance / local transport • Compensating PACS for interest burden due to advanced storage
Fertilizers’ requirement: Issues (Cont..) • Introduction of NBS policy • Impact on availability, particularly of DAP • Companies not finalized import arrangement • Freeing of MRP likely to make fertilizers costly • Adversely impact poorer States / Regions / Sections of farmer • Freedom of movement control likely to lead to • Shortage of fertilizers in the hinterland states like M.P. with companies preferring to sell fertilizers mostly in costal states • Reimbursement of only rail freight likely to cause • Shortage at places away from railway rake points as the Fertilizer Companies may not show interest in supplying fertilizers there
