Soils naturally contain many nutrients, out of which nitrogen, phosphorous, calcium and potassium are of prime importance. These nutrients are essential for plants’ growth and development. When soil nutrients are missing or in short supply, plants suffer from nutrient deficiency and stop growing. Then, application of fertilizers to soils as per requirement is very important to provide balanced nutrients to the plants grown on it. The soils of Assam are basically acidic in nature. The productivity potential of soil is also limited. Together with cultivation of crops for years, the soils need to be replenished periodically.

  • Redesigning India's Urea Policy
    Redesigning India’s urea policy Sid Ravinutala MPA/ID Candidate 2016 in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Public Administration in International Development, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. Advisor: Martin Rotemberg Section Leader: Michael Walton ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Arvind Subramanian, Chief Economic Adviser, Government of India for the opportunity to work on this issue as part of his team. Credit for the demand-side solution presented at the end goes to Nandan Nilekani, who casually dropped it while in a car ride, and of course to Arvind for encouraging me to pursue it. Credit for the supply-side solution goes to Arvind, who from the start believed that decanalization throttles efficiency in the market. He has motivated a lot of the analysis presented here. I would also like to thank the rest of the members of ‘team CEA’. We worked on fertilizer policy together and they helped me better understand the issues, the people, and the data. The analyses of domestic firms and the size and regressivity of the black market were done by other members of the team (Sutirtha, Shoumitro, and Kapil) and all credit goes to them. Finally, I want to thank my wife, Mara Horwitz, and friend and colleague Siddharth George for reviewing various parts and providing edits and critical feedback. Finally, I would like to thank Michael Walton and Martin Rotemberg for providing insightful feedback and guidance as I narrowed my policy questions and weighed possible solutions. I also had the opportunity to contribute to the chapter on fertilizer policy in India’s 2016 Economic Survey.
