India Reports Record Fertiliser Stocks, Assures Supply Amid West Asia Tensions

India's fertiliser stocks have reached a record 177.31 lakh tonnes ahead of the kharif season, marking a 36.5% increase from last year. The government assures farmers that domestic supplies remain secure despite geopolitical tensions in West Asia and potential LNG supply disruptions. It has imported 98 lakh tonnes of finished fertilisers and secured long-term agreements with international producers. Gas allocation to the fertiliser sector is prioritized, and farmers are encouraged to proceed with sowing without concern over supply shortages.
