With an aim to provide some relief to the farmers with respect to high fertilizers prices, the Union Cabinet has approved a Rs 22,303 crore subsidy on Phosphatic and Potassic (P&K) fertilizers for Rabi Season 2023-24 (from October 01, 2023 to March 31, 2024). This move will ensure farmers continue to get soil nutrients at reasonable rates despite high global prices. The Union Cabinet has approved nutrient-based subsidy rates (NBS) for various nutrients, like nitrogen, phosphorous, potash and sulphur for the Rabi crop season (October 1, 2023 – March 31, 2024).

Subsidy for the current Rabi season will be like this - for the Nitrogen it will be Rs 47.2 per kg, Phosphorus will be Rs 20.82 per kg, Potassium subsidy will be Rs 2.38 per kg and the Sulphur subsidy will be Rs 1.89 per kg. Di-ammonium phosphate will continue to be sold at the old rate of Rs 1,350 per bag, while for Muriate of Potash (MoP) the rate will go down. The approved schemes will make sure availability of fertilizers to farmers at subsidized, affordable and reasonable prices and rationalization of subsidy on P&K fertilizers in view of recent trends in the international prices of fertilizers and inputs.

Government is making available 25 grades of P&K fertilizers to farmers at subsidized prices through fertilizer manufacturers/importers. The subsidy on P&K fertilizers is governed by NBS Scheme with effective from April 01, 2010. In view of the recent trends in the international prices of fertilizers & inputs i.e. Urea, DAP, MOP and Sulphur, Government has decided to approve the NBS rates for Rabi 2023-24.
