All fertilizers companies viz Public sector, Cooperative and Private sector are required to sell subsidized fertilizers under brand name “BHARAT” across the country. The objective of the scheme is to increase the availability basket of fertilizers; take care of dilemma among farmers in choosing from plethora of brands manufactured by various companies available in the markets, reduce the crisscross movement and further ensure timely supply of fertilizers across the country including the States of Maharashtra, Bihar, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan. By consolidating branding under a single “BHARAT” brand, the scheme fosters transparency, combats malpractices, and ensures equitable access to essential nutrients for crops. The mandate of Department of Fertilizers is to ensure adequate availability of fertilizers at State level. The distribution of fertilizers within the State at district level is done by the concerned State Government. (c) Following Steps are taken by the Government every season for ensuring uninterrupted, timely and adequate supply of fertilizers across the States/UTs: (i) Before the commencement of each cropping season, Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare (DA&FW), in consultation with all the State Governments, assesses the State-wise & month-wise requirement of fertilizers. (ii) On the basis of requirement projected by DA&FW, D/o Fertilizers allocates adequate quantities of fertilizers to States by issuing monthly supply plan and continuously monitors the availability. (iii) The movement of all major subsidized fertilizers is monitored throughout the country by an on-line web based monitoring system called integrated Fertilizer Management System (iFMS). (iv) Regular Weekly Video Conference is conducted jointly by DA&FW and D/o Fertilizers with State Agriculture Officials and corrective actions are taken to dispatch fertilizers as indicated by the State Governments.(v) The distribution of fertilizers within the State is done by the respective State Government. The availability of Fertilizers has remained adequate during the last three years and the ongoing Kharif 2026 (from 01.04.2026 to 19.07.2026) season across the States/UTs. The information regarding requirement, availability and sales of fertilizers across the States/UTs during the said periods is placed at Annexure. (d) and (e) In order to address the issues of black-marketing, sub-standard fertilizers, hoarding and diversion, fertilizers are declared as an essential commodity under the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 and notified under Fertilizer Control Order, 1985. State Governments are adequately empowered to take action against persons involved in said malpractices, as per provisions of EC Act. Any complaints received at Department of Fertilizers level regarding these malpractices are sent to concerned State Government to take appropriate action under Essential Commodities Act, 1955 and Fertilizer Control Order, 1985. However, Department of Agriculture & Farmer’s Welfare, in consultation with the State Governments, is regularly monitoring the enforcement action taken by States against the cases of black marketing, hoarding, sub-standard and diversion on weekly basis.
