Fertilisers on sale mostly adulterated: report
Most of the non-urea fertilisers including the organic which are sold in the market are highly adulterated, revealed a report of the Soil Resource Development Institute. The SRDI analysis report of the 2007-08 fiscal also said that the degree of adulteration in the fertilisers is in some cases up to 77 per cent. The farmers, who cannot discern the standard of the fertilisers, are being cheated by the unscrupulous private fertiliser producers who sell the spurious products in the market, experts said.
