Nano Urea has been provisionally included in Fertilizer Control Order (FCO) 1985. In the preliminary trials, Nano-urea spray on different crops gave comparable yields to those obtained under fully recommended doses of fertilizers, with savings on top-dressed nitrogen.

Nano Fertilizers hold great promise for application in plant nutrition because of their size-dependent qualities, high surface-to-volume ratio, and unique optical properties. Nano Fertilizer releases plant nutrients in a controlled manner, contributing to higher nutrient use efficiency.

In this context, participate & send your ideas regarding innovations in the Fertilizer Sector, which can help increase farmers’ income.

Last date of submission is 14th February 2023.

effort working people should be on mainstream ... collectively start it.. Head_Hand_Handi(craft)_Jard= work ..hardwork who take whole their life in effors why not give honouring 2 them .. _why in bitish practice of honouring court or honourable now all system will be honourable or none each time entry/exist of court 5times a day bow/Bend by lawyer,salute by police Respect 2 Work not Person.. & 4 which work they on post'justice'thats actually missed not seen_few amount person r in jail & core o money they escape ..then pending cases anyways.. _in health employment & high degree holders why not in police requirements those who come from health/sports ncc background... Indian r 2 much unaware about health health can take 15 th of age but education at any age.. eg_if after20 a disabled(in criteria)take degree&5 yers practice can be judge ... & high degree why divert lower post give concession in business anyways in farm edible seed & verious ways 2 start own farming ...

Using the micro-dosing method, farmers apply about 8 kg to 10 kg of nitrogen fertilizer per hectare, approximately a fifth of the recommended application rates. Micro-dosing is affordable and, when adopted by smallholder farmers, enhances fertilizer use.

There is also great scope for using micronutrient fertilizers to address micronutrient deficiencies not just in soils, but also in humans and animals. Applying micronutrients to soils is considered to be one of the most promising ways to fight malnutrition and alleviate nutrient deficiencies worldwide, especially for zinc, selenium and iodine. This method has been shown to be particularly effective for increasing the concentration of zinc in grains.

Nutrient recycling is another growth area, with the fertilizer industry and many start-ups actively pursuing phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen recycling to support sustainable agriculture and the circular economy. The major objective needs to be to develop fertilizers from recycled nutrients that have a higher than normal and more consistent nutrient concentration than traditional organic fertilizers, making them more economical to move over larger distances. Replace mined phosphates by recovering phosphorus from a variety of ash materials. These secondary sources of phosphate include meat and bone ash, sewage sludge ash and struvite (containing between 20 and 35% P2O5). Wastewater nitrogen recovery facilities have also been built by producers such as Yara.

In addition to precision ag tools to further improve fertilizer efficiency, other areas with potential for innovation include products that can improve plant resilience to flooding and droughts, organo-mineral offerings that combine organic and mineral fertilizers, and products mixing mineral fertilizers with biologicals and biostimulants. Developing techniques to produce “green ammonia” entirely from sustainable, carbon-neutral inputs, like biomass or renewable electricity. Next-generation technologies such as electrochemical processes, photocatalytic devices, and advanced nuclear concepts being developed, the industry may in the future be producing low-cost, carbon-neutral nitrogen fertilizers.

Another area is new materials to help nutrient delivery, such as nanoparticles and graphene, as well as solutions that help with the fourth aspect of the 4Rs, namely the right place for fertilizer application. Replenishing soil nutrients by placing fertilizers in depths of 20 to 60cm, known as subsoil fertilization, for example, can potentially increase yields from 50 to 100%, according to studies, so developing methods for affordably delivering fertilizers to those depths could be very significant

Develop a new material that offers both fast and slow release boron to better match the needs of crops, as well as a manufacturing process that increases the solubility of zinc in fertilizers, improving crops’ early growth.
