India’s Cabinet approved introducing sulfur-coated urea, branded Urea Gold, at a price of Rs 266.50 per 40-kg bag. The price matches that of a 45-kg bag of neem-coated urea, and the government has notified fertilizer manufacturers to proceed with the launch.
Keeping the new product at the existing subsidized price avoids raising farmers’ purchase costs while expanding access to a sulfur-containing fertilizer. The policy could support fertilizer use and crop nutrition in India, but no direct commodity price impact is established.
