This report gives an in-depth analysis of chemical fertilizers industry in India. Fertilizers are any solid, liquid or gaseous substances containing one or more plant nutrients. They are either applied to the soil, directly on the plant or added to aqueous solution; in order to maintain soil fertility, improve crop development, and crop quality. The purpose of fertilizers are to supplement the natural supply of soil nutrient, build up soil fertility in order to satisfy the demand of crops with a high yield potential and to compensate for the nutrients taken by harvested products or lost by unavoidable leakages to the environment, in order to maintain good soil conditions for cropping. Manufactured fertilizers are classified according to different criteria as number of nutrients, types of combination, physical condition and nutrient release. With nearly 1.2 billion population, India requires a robust, modernized agriculture sector to ensure the food security to its population.
