After ten years, IFFCO’s Nano Urea and Nano DAP will find a place in the list of biggest experiments done in the agricultural sector

Amit Shah, Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation inaugurated IFFCO’s Nano DAP (Liquid) Plant at Kalol in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Union Minister of Health & Family Welfare and Chemicals & Fertilisers, Mansukh Mandaviya and many other dignitaries were present on this occasion.

Amit Shah said that today is a very important day for the entire Western India including Gujarat as IFFCO’s Nano DAP (Liquid) plant has been inaugurated at Kalol in Gandhinagar district. Minister of Cooperation, while congratulating the IFFCO team for taking India first in the world in Nano Urea and Nano DAP, said that India is an agricultural country blessed with large and fertile cultivable land and climate suitable for three to four crops, a combination not to be found anywhere else in the world. He said that India is the only country where in the last 75 years we have developed such a system that farmers can do farming every month.

Union Minister of Cooperation said that it is the responsibility of the cooperative institutions of India to bridge the gap between the requirement and production of food grains in the country. He said that after ten years, when the list of biggest experiments done in the agricultural sector would be prepared, IFFCO’s Nano Urea and Nano DAP will find a place in it. Shah said that the need of the hour is to reduce the use of urea and move towards natural farming but at the same time, there is also a need to increase production. Shri Shah said that Nano Urea is sprayed not on the ground but on the plants and due to this, there is a zero possibility of destruction of natural elements or the earthworms present in the soil. If all the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACS) use Nano Urea and Nano DAP in partnership with IFFCO then very soon our land will move towards natural farming.

He said that IFFCO has set up pan-India plants in a very modern manner. There can be no greater example of Make in India than this. IFFCO’s Kalol unit will produce about 42 lakh bottles of green technology-based Nano DAP which will definitely benefit the farmers. He said that 60 per cent of the people in our country are dependent on agriculture for earning a living and 60 per cent of the country’s land is suitable for agriculture, but for years both farmers and agriculture were ignored.

Accoridng to the PM, eight more such plants will be established in the country in the coming days

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently addressed a seminar of leaders of various cooperative institutions on ‘Sahakar Se Samriddhi’ at Mahatma Mandir, Gandhinagar, where he also inaugurated the Nano Urea (Liquid) Plant constructed at IFFCO, Kalol. Chief Minister of Gujarat Bhupendrabhai Patel, Union Ministers Amit Shah, Dr ​​Mansukh Mandaviya, Members of Parliament, MLA, Ministers from the Gujarat Government, and leaders of the cooperative sector were among those present on the occasion.

Addressing the gathering, the Prime Minister welcomed thousands of farmers who gathered at the Mahatma Mandir. He said cooperation is a great medium for the self-sufficiency of the village. 

The Prime Minister expressed heartfelt happiness on the inauguration of the nano urea (liquid) plant constructed at IFFCO, Kalol. He said that the power of a full sack of urea has come into a half-litre bottle, leading to huge savings in transportation and storage. The plant will produce about 1.5 lakh bottles of 500 ml per day. Eight more such plants will be established in the country in the coming days.

“This will reduce foreign dependence with regard to urea and will save the country’s money. I am confident that this innovation will not remain confined to urea. In the future, other nano fertilisers will be available to our farmers,” he said.
