The Uttar Pradesh government has assured farmers that there will be no shortage of fertilizers during the Kharif 2026 season.

The department stated that adequate stocks of Urea, DAP, NPK, SSP and MOP are available throughout the state. Farmers have been advised not to believe rumours regarding fertilizer shortages and to purchase fertilizers only according to their crop requirements instead of storing excess quantities.

Government Assures Timely Fertilizer Supply

State Agriculture Minister Surya Pratap Shahi said the government is making continuous efforts to ensure farmers receive every essential agricultural input, from seeds to fertilizers and marketing support. He said sufficient fertilizer stocks have been arranged to meet the demand for Kharif crops, while regular coordination is also being maintained with the Government of India to ensure uninterrupted fertilizer availability in every district and division.

Farmer Registration Made Important for Fertilizer Distribution

The Agriculture Department has appealed to all farmers to complete their Farmer Registry based on their agricultural land records or ownership documents. According to the department, registered farmers will be able to receive fertilizers as per the recommended crop requirement without any difficulty.
