New Delhi - Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO) has started exporting the world’s first Nano urea invented and manufactured indigenously in India to the US. An agreement to export Nano urea was signed between IFFCO and Kapoor Enterprises Inc of California.

It came amid Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ongoing visit to the US. The nano urea is a revolution in the agriculture sector as it has the potential to reduce storage space and money. A 500 ml bottle of IFFCO Nano Urea Liquid has the capacity to replace at least one bag of conventional Urea. In a tweet, Managing Director and CEO of IFFCO Dr. U S Awasthi said the Nano Urea has the capacity to reduce chemical fertiliser usage and to control air and water pollution as well as save soil. So far, India has sold more than 5.7 crore bottles in the Country.
