Nano DAP Experiment Reveals Yield Decline
A study by Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) found that using nano diammonium phosphate (DAP) instead of traditional DAP led to a 16.1% decrease in wheat yields. The study also showed reduced plant growth and lower nutrient uptake with nano DAP. Despite government promotion of nano DAP as a cost-effective alternative, the study raises concerns about its effectiveness in supporting sustainable agriculture. More research is needed to understand the long-term impact of nano fertilizers on crop productivity and soil health, highlighting the need for a careful reevaluation of India’s fertilizer strategies.
