The world’s first nano urea liquid makes its presence felt. It has been introduced by Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO). The nano urea liquid is indigenously developed after years of dedicated and sincere research by IFFCO’s scientists and engineers through a proprietary technology developed at Nano Biotechnology Research Centre, Kalol. The liquid is found to be effective and efficient for plant nutrition. This increases the production with improved nutritional quality. It will also give a huge positive impact on the quality of underground water, very significant reduction in the global warming with an impact on climate change and sustainable development. A 500 ml bottle of the liquid will replace at least one bag of conventional Urea. Hence, it will reduce the input cost to farmer. The production of IFFCO nano urea liquid will commence from June 2021. The commercial rollout will start soon thereafter. IFFCO has priced Nano Urea at ₹ 240 per 500 ml bottle for the farmers, which is 10 percent cheaper than the cost of a bag of conventional urea.
