Abstract

A district-level analysis of fertiliser consumption\ha based on data for 346 districts is presented. During 1984-85, the number of districts with a nutrient consumption of 10 kg\ha or less was 95 for N, 214 for P and- 302 for K. Mean farm-level investment in fertilisers varied from Rs 3\ha to Rs 1600\ha among districts with an all-India mean of Rs 228 \ha. Such analyses may be useful in the formulation of area-wise on-target fertiliser promotion programmes.
