30,000 mt. of organic fertilizer imported
The Agriculture Ministry says that 30,000 metric tonnes of
organic fertilizer were imported from Lithuania.
It says the fertilizer will be immediately dispatched to
agrarian development centers in Ampara, Batticaloa, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa,
Kurunegala, Puttalam, Trincomalee and Hambantota for the Maha Season
cultivations.
The government has banned the importation of chemical
fertilizer in a bid to move towards organic farming.
