Urea shortage makes Telangana farmers trouble

Hyderabad: Farmers in Telangana facing problems for a shortage of urea during the peak Kharif.  The fertilizer deficit is likely to pose challenges to agricultural productivity.

Districts like Warangal, Khammam and Mahabubnagar have seen long queues outside Rythu Seva Kendras, with some farmers returning empty-handed.

Telangana requires 10.48 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) of urea for the current season. However, only 4.50 LMT were supplied between April and July against the allocated 9.80 LMT. With nearly 5.30 LMT still pending and only 1.20 LMT in stock.

Official agencies monitoring the supply are now asking for not only Aadhar cards but even Pattadar passbooks for verification.
