15 of 20 fertiliser ships stuck at Hormuz set sail, relief for farmers

Fifteen of twenty fertilizer ships bound for India have successfully passed through the Strait of Hormuz, easing concerns over supply disruptions. This development, combined with increased domestic urea production over the past three months, ensures sufficient fertilizer availability for the upcoming kharif crop season. Domestic urea production exceeded targets in April, May, and June, while international suppliers have been engaged through diplomatic channels to secure additional supplies. Fertilizer imports are coming from multiple countries, including Oman, Malaysia, and Russia, with some shipments arriving via the Red Sea route.
