Kisan Tak Bharat Agriculture Conference 2026: Are we destroying our own farms by overusing chemical fertilizers? Deepak Fertilizers CMD SC Mehta drops four bitter truths about Indian agriculture that every farmer and policymaker needs to hear. Did you know that crop yield per acre has actually dropped by 7% over the last 50 years? Or that crops only absorb 30% of the Urea and DAP we dump into the soil, leaving the rest to poison our environment?

He also proposes a massive policy shift: transfer the massive ₹3 lakh crore fertilizer subsidy directly to farmers' bank accounts!
