As soon IFFCO MD posted the video on Twitter, it went viral. Earlier, we had reported in these columns that IFFCO’s field trials are going on in almost all the states and in several union territories.

Presently, the field trials are in progress on farms of over 11,000 farmers. Besides, IFFCO is also planning to set up a Nano Fertilizer plant at its mother unit in Kalol in Gujarat in May in the wake of encouraging results of the field trials of Nano Fertilizers in various parts of the country.

The Nano products have been researched and developed indigenously at the IFFCO Nano Biotechnology Research Centre (NBRC) in the Kalol Unit. Recently, IFFCO launched another Nano lab in its Aonla unit.

It is being said that these nanostructured formulations will reduce the requirement of conventional nitrogen chemical fertilizers by 50%, deliver nutrition to the plant in an environmentally sustainable manner and be available to the farmers at reduced costs.
