The Fertiliser Association of India (FAI) today organized a high-level
Fertiliser Industry Strategy Session in New Delhi, bringing together senior
officials of leading fertiliser companies to deliberate on the sector's
long-term priorities, emerging challenges and opportunities in supporting
India's food and fertiliser security objectives.
The session provided a
platform for government officials, industry leaders and experts to exchange
views on the evolving operating environment for the fertiliser sector and
identify strategic actions required to ensure sustainable growth and nutrient
security for Indian agriculture. The programme also featured sector-specific
deliberations covering Urea, Phosphatic & Potassic (P&K), Single Super
Phosphate (SSP) and emerging fertiliser segments, enabling participants to
identify priority issues and formulate recommendations for consideration by
policymakers.
The session included
presentations on the current industry landscape, key policy developments and
future growth drivers. Participants also engaged in discussions on
strengthening India's fertiliser security, improving ease of doing business,
enhancing domestic manufacturing capabilities, advancing innovation and
promoting balanced nutrient management.
Speaking on the occasion,
Mr. Sankarasubramanian S, Chairman FAI, said, “The fertiliser
industry has demonstrated remarkable resilience in ensuring nutrient
availability to farmers despite a challenging operating environment. Going
forward, sustained collaboration between industry and Government will be
essential to strengthen India's fertiliser security and support the sector's
long-term growth. As a key pillar of India's food security, our collective
focus must remain on improving nutrient-use efficiency, promoting balanced
plant nutrition and advancing sustainable agricultural development."
As part of the event, FAI
also felicitated former Directors of the Association in recognition of their
contributions to the development of the fertiliser industry and the growth of
the Association.
