Through the support of Cochin Port Trust, this move will ease pressure on movement of fertilizers by rail and road

The Fertilizers & Chemicals Travancore Limited (FACT), a PSU under the Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers had  commenced the use of coastal shipping in July, 2020, as a new and effective mode of transport for the movement of its products. 

Following the successful delivery of the first batch of 20 containers of Ammonium Sulphate dispatched from Cochin on July 30, 2020 through Coastal shipping, to Haldia, West Bengal, the company will send another shipment of 20 containers of fertilizer (560 Mt Ammonium Sulphate) to the same destination.

Filling of bagged fertilizers in containers was completed at FACT plant at Udyogamandal on September 2, 2020 and the ship is scheduled to depart on 4th September 4, 2020.

In West Bengal this product is marketed by HIL (India) Limited, a PSU under the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, which is a sole manufacturer of DDT globally.

Through the support of Cochin Port Trust, this move will ease pressure on movement of fertilizers by rail and road. However, the last mile delivery will continue through rail or road to reach the required destination.
