Agriculture
In India, agriculture constitutes one quarter of the Indian economy. More significant, it employs two-thirds of the nation's workforce and feeds a population of one billion people. Tata Chemicals believes that empowering farmers, enriching the land and enhancing agricultural productivity are key factors to the nation's prosperity.
TCL touches lives in agriculture through its basket of crop nutrition products and the Tata Kisan Sansar network.
Crop nutrition
In India Tata Chemicals is present in all three crop nutrition groups through its fertiliser product base that spans:
 |
Urea (a nitrogenous fertiliser) |
|
DAP (contains both nitrogen and phosphorus) |

NPK complexes (contains all three nutrients) |
|

|
Imported MOP (potassium based fertilisers) |
|

Tata Kisan Sansar
The Tata Kisan Sansar (TKS) is a network of nearly 600 farmer resource centres that caters to more than 3.5 million farmers in 22000 villages in the northern part of India.
