THE Vidarbha Economic
Development Council (VED)
has formally requested the
Government of Maharashtra
(GoM) to facilitate the establishment of a nano urea manufacturing plant in Vidarbha.
This crucial step aims to benefit local farmers by providing

A delegation from VED
Council, led by President Rina
Sinha and Past President
Shivkumar Rao, recently met
with Devendra Fadnavis,

Maharashtra, to discuss the
establishmentof theproposed
plant. Nano urea, a breakthrough innovation in fertilizer technology, uses nanotechnology to deliver nitrogen to
plants more efficiently.
This
sustainable solution ensures
better absorption and minimizes environmental impact
compared to traditional urea.
When applied as a foliar spray,
liquid nano urea efficiently
penetratesplantleaves, releasing nutrients in a controlled
manner and reducing wastage.

essential product but also
reducecosts,significantlybenefiting the region's farmers.
