Production of fertilizer nutrients recorded a robust increase during November 2019 over November 2018. Production of N at 1.194 million metric tonnes (MMT) and P O at 0.437 MMT during November 2019 registered sharp increase of 13.8% and 20.7%, respectively, over November 2018. Robust increase in production of urea (13.8%) mainly contributed to increase in N production during November 2019 over November 2018. Similarly, hefty increase in production of DAP (76.3%) and in SSP (17.8%) despite fall in NP/NPKs production (-8%) led to overall increase in P2O5 production during the period. Capacity utilization of N and P2O5 increased from 91.8% and 61.1% during November 2018 to 100% and 73.5%, respectively, during November 2019. Production of N and P2O5fell short from the respective targets by 52.0 thousand tonnes and 16.2 thousand tonnes during November 2019.
