A Green Urea Mission is a proposed plan to reduce the environmental impact of urea production and consumption in India. The mission aims to:
Reduce emissions: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 60%
Reduce subsidies: Reduce subsidies by 65%
Eliminate imports: Eliminate urea imports
Improve water and air quality: Reduce water and air pollution
Reverse land degradation: Reverse land degradation
Support small farmers: Support small farmers
Grow new industries: Grow the green hydrogen and carbon capture and utilization (CCU) industries
Lower production costs: Lower the cost of producing urea
The mission is estimated to have a net benefit of around $1 trillion over the next 25 years.
Some say that the mission's success depends on the extent of government control over the urea sector. Others say that the urea industry is keen to contribute to the net zero goal and that green urea can be competitive in the future with proper policy support.
Some ways to reduce urea consumption include: Growing green manure crops like Sunn hemp and Incorporating technolgies like nano urea.
