flag India maintains stable fertiliser supply despite China's export limits, thanks to diversified imports and increased domestic production.

India's fertiliser supply remains stable despite China's export restrictions, with adequate stocks of urea, DAP, and NPKs due to diversified imports from the Middle East, Africa, and Russia, and expanded domestic production. Urea imports reached 8–9 million tonnes by November 2025, up from 5.6 million the previous year, while DAP and NPK imports also rose. Domestic urea capacity has grown by 7 million tonnes, bringing India closer to self-sufficiency. Government digitalisation of subsidies and timely payments have improved supply chain efficiency. Sustainability initiatives, including green ammonia and nano fertilisers, are advancing, supported by strategic partnerships with nations like Saudi Arabia, Morocco, and Russia. India’s fertiliser consumption is near 70 million tonnes annually, serving over 140 million farming households, with domestic production at 51 million tonnes in 2024–25.
