Farmers in Bihar receive regular assistance from the government to improve their crop yields during the Kharif season.
The government emphasizes the use of Urea and DAP fertilizers to achieve better results.
Efforts have been made in the past to prevent the illegal sale of Urea, ensuring that farmers can access these fertilizers at fair prices and quality.
Helpline for Farmers
The government has established a helpline number to assist farmers with any agricultural concerns or complaints.
Farmers can easily register their problems using this helpline.
For instance, the Agriculture Department of the Bihar Government has set the fixed price for a 45 kg bag of Urea (neem coated) at Rs 266.50, while a 50 kg bag of DAP costs Rs 1,350.
Pricing and Availability
Similarly, the price of a 50 kg bag of MOP has been set at Rs 1,700. Both Urea and DAP fertilizers are accessible at government and private agricultural centers and shops throughout the state.
The government helpline is available for calls from 10 am to 6 pm.

The Agriculture Department of the Government of Bihar has introduced a helpline number for fertilizer-related issues.
Farmers with concerns regarding agricultural fertilizers can call the helpline at 0612-2233555. Additionally, complaints can be sent via email to fertilizer.bihar@gmail.com.
