September 17 , 2026 13 hrs 0 min 28 0

The Integrated Fertilizer Management System (iFMS) has entered a new phase with digital tools to improve transparency, fertilizer availability and supply-chain monitoring.
New dashboards monitor fertilizer production, imports, dispatches, movement, stocks and retail sales at national, State, district and retailer levels.
iFMS covers over 14 crore Aadhaar-linked fertilizer buyers, more than 2.5 lakh retailers and around 7 crore metric tonnes of fertilizer transactions annually.
The system uses transaction data to analyse fertilizer purchases based on buyer category, landholding, crop, district and fertilizer type.
iFMS also supports administration of nearly ₹2 lakh crore in fertilizer subsidies annually.
