Fertilizers-Issues

•Change in price policy and impact on consumption•Different Sales Tax Policy in Different states and impact on

quality and price•Timely supply & supply of allotted quantity •Rake restriction•Rake congestion-ICT intervention to minimize human errors

Issues

1. Increased Seed subsidy

2. Improvement in dibbler / power dibbler for encouraging cultivation through SWI in large scale

3. Uniform subsidy norms for farm implements

4. Establishment of FMTTI in Bihar

5. Central intervention in Promoting Farm Machinery Manufacturing Units

6. First release be made in April and Second in September to effectively implement Kharif & Rabi Programme.

7. Increase allocation as per Agriculture Road Map

8. Allocation of Central schemes have not been communicated, which impedes advance planning.
