evidence: Neem Coated Urea was developed by National Fertilizers Limited (NFL) back in 2002. Since then National Fertilizers Limited standardized the techniques for production of Neem Coated Urea at its Panipat Unit. In 2008, the ministry allowed production (not mandatory) of NCU up to 20 per cent. In January 2010, the ministry increased this to 35 per cent. And in March 2015, the NDA government made it mandatory for domestic manufacturers to produce 75 per cent NCU, which was further extended to 100 per cent on May 25, 2015. Modi Sarkar is repeatedly claiming that the NCU is its own initiative. But it was there, well over 13 back in time, before it was made mandatory in the urea production. The year wise production of NCU in metric ton is available before it was made mandatory in 2015. [...] However, Neem-coated urea is being used in India since 2002. Only 100% production policy was adopted by Modi Government in 2015, which defuse Modi Sarkar’s indirect claim on NCU. Neem-coating makes it costlier for black marketers to divert urea to industrial consumers. But it cannot prevent smuggling of subsidised fertilisers in other countries. Prime Minister’s remark on Neem coating urea is baseless wild claim. It might have effectively substituted the standard urea, but there are no studies or reports of direct benefits from Neem coated urea.
