The Fertiliser Distribution Regulatory Task Force in Rajasthan on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) gave direction for ensuring timely distribution of full quantity of fertilisers allocated by the Centre during the upcoming rabi crop season. Farmers in the State will get uninterrupted supply of fertilisers in accordance with their demand.

An effective action will also be taken to curb irregularities such as hoarding, black marketing, forced tagging and illegal storage of fertilisers. As many as 744 fertiliser inspectors have been deployed across the State to oversee the task.
