Dr Mandaviya also underlined the efforts of the government in making Nano urea available to the farmers. He also pointed out the challenges in bringing Nano urea ranging from getting approvals from various departments, convincing the farmers to tackling conventional urea lobby.
He also said that it is an alternate fertiliser. We for the years, used urea and DAP to increase the productivity.

Today, the productivity of the soil is declining and crop production is saturated, it was essential to go to alternate fertilisers.
