Why does the Government of India promote the use of 'Neem-coated Urea' in agriculture?
1
Release of Neem oil in the soil increases nitrogen fixation by the soil microorganisms
2
Neem coating slows down the rate of dissolution of urea in the soil
3
Nitrous oxide, which is a greenhouse gas is not at all released into atmosphere by crop fields
4
It is a combination of a weedicide and a fertilizer for particular crops
