India’s Fertilizer Sector

Agriculture is the livelihood for the majority of Indians. And these people shoulder the task of reaching food grains to more than a billion Indians, every day. From 2002-03 to 2019-20, the food grain production in India has had a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 3%, having touched almost 300 million tonnes in 2019-20.

Contributing much to this growth, the Fertilizer consumption in the country has seen a CAGR of 2% from 50 million tonnes in 2009 to more than 61 million tonnes in 2020. Both urea and non-urea sales have grown steadily during this period.
