SHRI BASU DEB ACHARIA :  The Hon. Minister has stated that fertilizer is available. But the availability of fertilizer will not solve the problem of farmers unless farmers get the fertilizer at subsidized rates. Farmers are not getting it.
He has mentioned about only three States. I can mention about more than three States. There are major States like Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal where every year the consumption of fertilizer is increasing.
MADAM SPEAKER: Basu Deb Achariaji, please conclude.

SHRI SRIKANT JENA: Madam, the total scenario of fertilizer in the country is actually satisfactory.  I would request the hon. Members if they have shortage of any fertilizer anywhere in their parliamentary constituencies… (Interruptions) There is absolutely no shortage of fertilizers, including DAP, in the country.  A special care is taken… (Interruptions) With these words I assure this august House that there will be absolutely no problem so far as the availability of fertilizer is concerned.
