The world’s largest processed fertiliser cooperative, Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited, has announced an exceptional financial and operational performance for FY 2025–26, marking a historic milestone with its highest-ever Profit Before Tax (PBT), projected to surpass Rs 4,106 crore. The achievement is accompanied by robust growth in production and sales across both conventional and nano fertilisers.
Driven by its philosophy of “Sahakar Se Samriddhi” (Prosperity through Cooperation), IFFCO continues to strengthen India’s agricultural ecosystem through innovation, sustainability, and an unwavering commitment to farmers, according to a company release. The projected record-breaking PBT underscores the cooperative’s financial strength, operational excellence, and strategic focus on innovation-led growth. This accomplishment reflects not only commercial success but also IFFCO’s commitment to reinvesting in farmer welfare and rural prosperity.
IFFCO reported total fertiliser production of 90.62 lakh metric tonnes (MT) during FY 2025–26, demonstrating significant operational efficiency across its plants. This includes 48.28 lakh MT of urea production and 42.34 lakh MT of NPK, DAP, water-soluble fertilisers (WSFs), and specialty fertilisers. Several units, including Phulpur, Aonla, and Paradeep, achieved record-breaking outputs. Improved efficiencies and logistics performance, including enhanced port operations at Paradeep, further strengthened production capabilities. This strong production base ensured uninterrupted supply to farmers despite global uncertainties.
On the sales front, IFFCO achieved total fertiliser dispatches of 119.68 lakh MT, reflecting strong demand and an efficient nationwide distribution network. Nano fertiliser sales crossed 301 lakh bottles, including 221 lakh bottles of Nano Urea Plus Liquid and over 64.89 lakh bottles of Nano DAP Liquid.
First-year sales milestones for Nano Zinc and Nano Copper further reinforced IFFCO’s leadership in next-generation agri-inputs. Conventional fertiliser sales also remained strong at 118.75 lakh MT, covering urea, DAP, and NPK variants. This balanced growth across conventional and nano segments highlights IFFCO’s dual commitment to productivity and sustainability.
IFFCO continues to lead the transformation of Indian agriculture through cutting-edge solutions such as nano fertilisers, bio-stimulants, and advanced agri-technologies. These innovations align with the national vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat by reducing import dependency while enhancing crop productivity and soil health. The introduction of nano fertilisers and bio-stimulants reflects IFFCO’s dedication to reducing the chemical load on soil, improving nutrient efficiency, and promoting sustainable farming practices.
At the core of IFFCO’s success lies its deep-rooted commitment to farmers and soil health. The cooperative remains focused on enhancing farmer incomes through cost-effective inputs, promoting balanced crop nutrition, educating farmers on efficient fertiliser usage, and protecting soil health for future generations. Its efforts go beyond productivity, aiming at responsible growth that safeguards the environment and strengthens rural livelihoods.
Chairman Dileep Sanghani stated that as IFFCO steps into FY 2026–27, the organisation will move forward with comprehensive cooperative growth and renewed energy, driven by innovation and a shared commitment to farmers. He emphasised that every milestone represents not just business success but a step towards better service to farmers, the backbone of the nation.
He also urged farmers to adopt nano fertilisers and leverage the strength of the cooperative movement for their progress. He further encouraged employees and officials to continue working with passion and purpose, guided by cooperative values and the vision of “Sahakar Se Samriddhi,” to build a more prosperous future.
Sanghani said “I express my gratitude to the country’s most popular Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah, Union Fertilizer Minister J. P. Nadda, and Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan for their guidance and support.”
Managing Director K J Patel also congratulated the entire IFFCO family for the commendable achievements in production and sales of both conventional and nano fertilisers. He noted that the outstanding performance of joint ventures and associates during FY 2025–26 reflects collective dedication, resilience, and a strong pursuit of excellence.
As IFFCO enters FY 2026–27, it remains focused on scaling innovation, expanding global collaborations, and strengthening India’s agri-value chain. With a clear vision rooted in cooperation, sustainability, and farmer-first values, the cooperative is well-positioned to continue its journey as a catalyst for self-reliant, resilient, and prosperous agriculture, the release added.
