The Agriculture Inputs Company Limited´s branch office at Janakpur has been providing adequate quantity of fertilizer at subsidized rate to 175 cooperatives in Mahottari district.
However, most of these cooperatives are said to charge extra money as transportation fees while selling the fertilizer to the farmers.
The Agriculture Inputs Company Limited´s branch office sells 50 kilograms of urea fertilizer at Rs. 952, the DAP fertilizer at Rs. 2,301. But the farmers say that some of the cooperatives sell the same amount of fertilizer in the range of Rs. 3,000 to Rs. 3,500.
