    Integrated Nutrient Management (INM)
    Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) is the practice of using organic manures, bio-fertilizers, and chemical fertilizers together in the right proportion. This method ensures that crops receive balanced nutrition, soil fertility is maintained for the long term, and production becomes sustainable.

    Why INM is important
    It maintains soil health, reduces fertilizer costs, improves crop quality and yield, and minimizes environmental damage caused by excessive chemical use.

     

    How to practice INM
    Farmers should test their soil, apply nutrients according to the requirement, use compost, farmyard manure, green manures, and crop residues along with recommended chemical fertilizers, and add bio-fertilizers like Azotobacter or PSB for better results.
