 Availability of quality agricultural inputs viz. Fertilizers like DAP, Urea, SSP, Gypsum and Seeds at right time and reasonable rates is very important for enhancing agricultural production. RAJFED is contributing towards this by providing quality fertilizers and quality seeds to farmers of Rajasthan through its network of member Cooperative Societies (KVSS) at Tehsil level and Gram Seva Sahkari Samities (GSS) at village level. In addition to the normal supply of fertilizer RAJFED is engaged in advance stocking of Fertilizers from 2007-08 to 2022-23 to prevent the shortage of fertilizers in the peak sowing seasons. |

 Advance Stocking of Fertilizers
: Advance Stocking of Fertilizers : Historically there was always crisis of availability of fertilizers in Rajasthan. To overcome this shortage, RAJFED under the directions of Govt.of Rajasthan started advance stocking of fertilizers in 2007-08 wherein a Tripartite MoU for supply of fertilizers was executed between RAJFED, Deptt.of Agriculture, Govt.of Rajasthan and Fertilizers Manufacturers/Importers. The monthly supply schedule as decided by the Deptt.of Agriculture is finalized according to which the fertilizers are supplied by the fertilizer companies.
