In a growing wave of frustration, farmers across several regions of the country have taken to the streets to protest the steep rise in fertilizer prices, which they argue is severely impacting their livelihood and food production capacity. The protests, which have been spreading from rural towns to major urban centers, are becoming a focal point for discussions around agricultural policy, supply chain disruptions, and the economic pressures facing the farming community.
Over the past six months, the prices of key fertilizers, particularly urea and DAP (diammonium phosphate), have increased by as much as 30% to 40%. This surge has been attributed to a combination of global supply chain issues, rising raw material costs, and geopolitical tensions affecting the availability of key fertilizers. For farmers who rely heavily on these products to sustain crop yields, the price hike has pushed many to the brink of financial ruin.
In a statement issued during one of the largest protests in the state of Punjab, a representative of the All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) said, “The rising cost of fertilizers is strangling farmers. We are already grappling with unpredictable weather patterns, poor market prices, and mounting debts. This price hike has made it even harder for us to survive. Without affordable fertilizers, our crops will fail, and the country’s food security will be at risk.”
The unrest has not been confined to Punjab. _________ ________ ______ _______ ______ ______ _________ ____ _______ ___ _______.
