Horticulture Season İn Kashmir
Kashmiri men work in apple orchards using fertilizers such as Urea, DAP, Potash, and Calcium for improved yield in Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on April 28, 2026. Fertilizer prices have increased significantly in 2026 due to conflicts in the Middle East affecting supply chains and raising import costs for essential nutrients. India has approved a INR41,534 crore subsidy for the 2026 Kharif season to stabilize prices of DAP and other complex fertilizers for farmers. (Photo by Nasir Kachroo/NurPhoto)
