Punjab Speaker Sandhwan urges farmers to use Fertilizers judiciously

Chandigarh, November 3, 2024 (Yes Punjab News)

Stressing on excessive usage of fertilizer reduces land fertility, Punjab Vidhan Sabha Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan urged farmers to use fertilizers as per expert-recommended quantities during the upcoming wheat sowing season.

S. Sandhwan advised minimizing urea use and utilizing DAP fertilizer as prescribed by experts, citing NPK as a phosphorus substitute. He said that other bio fertilizers can also be used.

The Speaker said that farmers can contact Veer Kisan Call Center (toll-free: 18001801551) for more information.

The Speaker said that in situ management of paddy straw increases the soil fertilisation. He informed that the Agriculture Department has formed various teams to prevent forced sales of unnecessary products with DAP by dealers.

S. Sandhwan praised farmers who avoided the practice of stubble burning and encouraged others to join this eco-friendly campaign.
