Chouhan said that it should be ensured that maximum number of PEX and private retailer points remain operational in the district. It should be ensured that Fertilizers are delivered every month at the retailer points as per the sale of the previous year. Fertilizers should be provided to farmers through societies, so that the double lock of Markfed does not get crowded. All sales should be made through POS. Chouhan was reviewing the fertilizer arrangement in the state for Rabi 2021-22 in Mantralaya.
The Chief Minister expressed displeasure over the mismanagement in distribution of fertilizers in Damoh, Chhatarpur, Guna, Bina. Chouhan said that we are in constant touch with the Center. The state is getting enough rakes of fertilizers.
