Winner Announcement Blog for Snap it Selfie with Nano Urea Farmers
The Department of Fertilizers under Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers in association with MyGov, organized a selfie contest on the theme “Snap it: Selfie with Nano Urea Farmers”. The aim of the quiz was to spread awareness and test citizens’ knowledge about the benefits, usage, and production of Nano urea.
Nano-urea sprays on different crops gave comparable yields to those obtained under fully recommended doses of fertilizer, 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.
