INTRODUCTION
The Indian fertilizer industry has been supplying a substantial portion of the
growing demand of fertilizers within the country. India is the third largest producer of
fertilizers in the world. There are 60 large size fertilizer plants in the country, manufacturing a
wide range of nitrogenous, phosphates and complex fertilizers. Besides, there are 81 medium and
small scale single superphosphate units.
The cooperative sector has come to play a significant role in the Indian fertilizer industry. In
terms of nutrients, the share of cooperative sector in the installed capacity is 19.7 % for nitrogen
and 10.2 %for phosphate. Indian Farmers Fertilizer Cooperative Limited (IFFCO), a Multi-unit
Co-operative Society established on November 3, 1967 accounts for 64% of the installed
capacity of Nitrogen and the total of the Phosphate capacity in the cooperative sector. In the last
41 years
IFFCO has emerged as the pioneer venture in the cooperative sector. It has witnessed a meteoric
rise and has blossomed into the largest manufacturer and marketer of fertilizers in the
country. The success of IFFCO has encouraged the growth of the cooperative movement in
INDIA. The following is an organizational structure study of Indian Farmers Fertilizer
Cooperative Limited with special analysis of the IFFCO Aonla plant.

GLOBAL INDUSTRY
The International Fertilizer Industry Association or IFA is a not-for-profit trade association
that represents the global fertilizer industry, on issues related to the promotion of plant nutrients,
improvement of the operating environment of the member companies and the collection and
compilation of industry information.
IFA has some 540 members in about 85 countries. About half of the membership is based in
developing countries. IFA member companies represent all activities related to the production,
trade, transport and distribution of every type of fertilizer, their raw materials and intermediates.
The global fertilizer industry produces some 170 million tonnes of fertilizer nutrients annually.
These are used in every corner of the globe to support agricultural production. There is no
substitute for the nutrients absorbed by crops. As a major source of these, fertilizers therefore
represent an essential ingredient in the drive towards sustainable agriculture and world food
security.
IFA's membership also includes organizations involved in construction, engineering, consulting,
agronomic research and training.

INDIAN INDUSTRY
Fertilizers have played a vital role in the success of India’s green revolution and consequent self-reliance
in food grains production. The increase in fertilizer consumption has contributed
significantly to sustainable production in food grains in the country. Fertilizer is generally
defined as “any material, organic or inorganic, one or more of the chemical elements required for
plant growth”
India is the third largest fertilizer producer in the world. Fertilizer is a crucial input contributing
to about 40 per cent of the productivity of the crop. With expanding agricultural production,
improvement in technology and growing awareness among farmer, the consumption of
agrochemicals has been on the upswing. The agrochemicals industry is made up of insecticides
(74%), herbicides (20%) and fungicides (6%). India is one among the most dynamic generic
pesticides manufacturing countries with a total market size of Rs 89 billion per annum. And yet,
India’s own average consumption of pesticides is very low at 480gms per hectare which results
in crops worth about Rs 120 billion being annually destroyed by pests. Crop protection has
assumed special importance since food grains demand in the country is supposed to reach an
estimated 343 million tonne by 2020.
The agrochemical industry is spread over around 20 large manufacturers and 600 formulators.
While the organized sector contributes 55% to the industry’s output, the small scale sector makes
up for the balance. The Indian industry has been focusing sharply on integrated crop
management (ICM), increasing exports of genuine pesticides and concentrating on farmer
friendly activities.
The pesticide industry is targeting a 10% share of global pesticides market and has been working
on the ICM programmed to introduce safer applications, spray devices and crop protection
through balanced use of biological and chemical pesticide. The exports cover pesticide
intermediates. Pesticides export from India was growing at the rate of 15% and is expected to

witness a more accelerated growth. Spurious chemicals are growing at rates varying from 10% to
12% and have cornered a large chunk of the market.
The generic pesticide players include Excel Industries, Cheminova India, United Phosphorus,
Rallis India, Aimco Pesticides, Bharat Rasayan, Bayer (India), Aventis, Meghmain Organics etc.
producing a range of products like urea, DAP,MOP, Nitrogenous fertilizer(N), Phosphatic
fertilizer(P), Potassic fertilizer(K) and NPK etc.
To conclude, fertilizer is a key ingredient in ensuring the food security of the country, as it
increases the production and productivity of the soil. The domestic food grain production target
has been set at 320 million tonns by 2011-2012. This target can be achieved by higher
productivity through improved farming practices, expansion of irrigation, better seeds and
extensive and balanced use of fertilizers. Towards this end, the government of India is now
planning to raise the production of urea by the end of 11th Five Year Plan by taking concrete
steps to boost production and productivity. All these things show the definite growth of fertilizer
industry in India.

INTRODUCTION ABOUT IFFCO
The fertilizer industry in India consists of three major players; The Government
owned Public Sector undertakings, Cooperative Societies like IFFCO, KRIBHCO and units
from Private sector. There are about 33 major producers producing N and NP/NPK fertilizers in
the country at present. The fertilizer industry of India had made constructive use of the fertilizer
provided by the Government of India to ensure that the country achieved reasonable self-sufficiency
in food grain production. The fertilizer industry has organized itself through S
Fertilizer Association of India (FAI) to coordinate with the Government of India to achieve the
macro-economic objective related to agriculture sector and to provide other services.
During mid- sixties the co-operative sector in India was responsible for distribution
of 70 per cent of fertilizers consumed in the country. This sector had adequate infrastructure to
distribute fertilizers but had no production facilities of its own and hence dependent on
public/private sectors for supplies. To overcome this lacuna and to bridge
the demand - supply gap in the count ry, a new coope ra t ive soc ie ty wa s
conceived to specifically cater to the requirements of farmers. Thus was born
IFFCO , the world’s largest fertilizer cooperative.
It was a unique venture in which the farmers of the country through their own co-operative
societies created this new institution to safeguard their interests.
Indian Farmers Fertilizer Cooperative limited, a multistate Cooperative has emerged
as a role model for cooperatives Over 44 years of its inception; IFFCO has turned into a true
Cooperative – Of the Farmers, By the Farmers and For the Farmers. IFFCO has
steadily grown in strength and stature from a modest membership of 57 soc ie t ie s in 1967 -
68 to 39564 soc ie t ie s a s on 31 St March,2011. The initial equity capital of Rs.6
lakh contributed by the cooperatives in 1967-68 has also gone up to a paid-up capital of Rs.426

crore. Indian Farmers Fertilizer Co-operative Limited (IFFCO) was registered
on November 3, 1967 as a Multi-unit Co-operative Society. On the enactment of
the Multistate Cooperative Societies Act 1984 which was amended in 2002, the Society is
deemed to be registered as a Multi state Cooperative Society. The Society is primarily engaged
in production and distribution of fertilizers. The bye laws of the Society provide a
broad framework for the activities of IFFCO as a Cooperative Society. A pioneer in this field,
IFFCO’s growth reflects its belief in the strength of the farmer. Several prestigious awards stand
testimony to the fact that IFFCO is driven by its values and the dedication of its people.
This is an organization that believes in fair play and has always followed transparent
and professional practices in corporate governance.

IFFCO-AONLA UNIT
The Indian Farmers Fertilizer Co-operative Limited (IFFCO) is a national level multi-unit
cooperative society engaged in manufacturing and marketing of chemical fertilizers. The Society
was registered in 1987 and presently having a membership of over 37,000 cooperatives as

Pradesh and Kalol and Kandla in Gujarat. IFFCO produced over 6 million tones of fertilizers in
2004-05 and contributed about 18% to the total Nitrogen and 24% to the total P205 produced in
India. IFFCO markets its fertilizers through Cooperative Agencies and Member Cooperative
Societies. Aonla project of IFFCO is one of the six natural gas based fertilizer plants set up in the
country on the H.J.B. pipe line which runs through four statuses. This project has been designed
to produce 7.26 lake tons of Urea per year with plant capacity of 1350 TPD Ammonia and 2200
TPD of urea .The site is 28 km south west of Bareilly on Bareilly Aonla Road .

IFFCO's NPK/DAP
As far as Indian farmer is concerned, IFFCO's NPK/DAP is not
just a source of crucial nutrients N, P, K for the crops, but is an
integral part of his/her quest for nurturing mother earth. The
bountiful crop that results from this care is an enough reason for
the graceful bags of IFFCO NPK/DAP bags to be an integral
part of the farmer’s family. The two grades of NPK produced by
IFFCO, 10:26:26 and 12:32:16, indicating the content of N, P,
K proportion, is tailor made to supply the exact composition
required for replenishment of the soil. The Indian farmer's confidence and trust stems from the
fact that IFFCO's NPK/DAP are merely a part of a complete package of services, ably supported
by a dedicated team of qualified personnel. More importantly, they are aware, IFFCO is a
cooperative society owned by farmers cooperatives.
ABOUT DAP/NPK
DI-AMMONIUM PHOSPHATE
It is the most popular phosphate fertilizer because of its high analysis and good physical
properties. The composition of pure salt of DAP is N-21.19% and P210 -53.76%.Fertilizer grade
DAP is 18:46:0.
NPK COMPLEX GRADES
NPK complex fertilizers produced at Kandla are DAP based grades. At present two grades Grade
I - 10:26:26 and Grade II - 12:32:16 are produced. Granular NPK complexes are free flowing
and do not pose any problem during handling and storage. However, exposure of material for
long period to very high humidity may cause caking. Therefore, NPK complexes are bagged in
quality tested HDPE bags to prevent ingress of moisture.

IFFCO's UREA
IFFCO's Urea is not merely a source of 46% of nutrient nitrogen for crops, but it is
an integral part of millions of farmers in India. A bag of IFFCO's urea is a constant
source of confidence and is a trusted companion for Indian farmer.
When farmers buy IFFCO's urea, they know that what they get is not just a product
but a complete package of services, ably supported by a dedicated team of qualified
personnel.
ABOUT UREA
Urea is the most important nitrogenous fertilizer in the country because of its high N content
(46%N). Besides its use in the crops, it is used as a cattle feed supplement to replace a part of
protein requirements. It has also numerous industrial uses notably for production of plastics. Hat
it is their own urea produced and supplied by a cooperative society owned by the iffco.

BIO – FERTILISERS
A bio fertilizer unit was established at Cooperative Rural Development Trust, Phulpur (Uttar
Pradesh) in 1996 - 97 and other at Kalol (Gujarat) in 2008-09 with an annual capacity of 75 MT
and 165 MT respectively of different cultures such as Rhizobium, Azotobacter, PSM,
Azospirillium and Acetobacter
PHOSPHATE SOLUBILISING MICRO ORGANISM - Several soil bacteria and fungi possess
the ability to bring insoluble phosphates into soluble forms by secreting organic acids. They can
be applied to and recommended for all crops
RHIZOBIUM - It is the most important nitrogen fixing organism. It live symbiotically in the
root nodules of leguminous plants and supply nitrogen to the plant through nitrogen fixation.
Besides, supplying nitrogen to the crop, nitrogen fixed by legume - Rhizobia association would
also leave residual nitrogen for the succeeding crops. The beneficiary crops are Groundnut,
Soybean, Red-gram, Green-gram, Black-gram, Lentil, Cow pea, Bengal-gram and Fodder
legumes.

AZOTOBACTER - It is non symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria recommended for non
leguminous crops like Paddy, Wheat, Millets, Cotton, Tomato, Cabbage, Mustard, Safflower and
Sunflower. The AZOTOBACTER performs well if the soil organic matter content is high.
ACETOBACTER - It is a symbiotic bacteria capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen by living
within the sugar plant. They are found in all parts of plant body. It is suitable for sugarcane
cultivation
AZOSPIRILLIUM - It is an associative micro Europhilic nitrogen fixer is commonly found in
association with the roots of cereals and forage grasses. The beneficiary crop includes
Sugarcane, Vegetables, and Maize, Pearl millet, Rice, Wheat, Fodders and Oil seeds.

INTRODUCTION
Any operating organization should have its own structure in order to operate efficiently. For an
organization, the organizational structure is a hierarchy of people and its functions.
The organizational structure of an organization tells you the character of an organization and the
values it believes in. Therefore, when you do business with an organization or getting into a new
job in an organization, it is always a great idea to get to know and understand their organizational
structure.
Depending on the organizational values and the nature of the business, organizations tend to
adopt one of the following structures for management purposes.
Although the organization follows a particular structure, there can be departments and teams
following some other organizational structure in exceptional cases.
Sometimes, some organizations may follow a combination of the following organizational
structures as well.
BUREAUCRATIC STRUCTURES
Bureaucratic structures maintain strict hierarchies when it comes to people management. There
are three types of bureaucratic structures:
FUNCTIONAL STRUCTURE
The organization is divided into segments based on the functions when managing. This allows
the organization to enhance the efficiencies of these functional groups.

DIVISIONAL STRUCTURE
These types of organizations divide the functional areas of the organization to divisions. Each
division is equipped with its own resources in order to function independently. There can be
many bases to define divisions. Divisions can be defined based on the geographical basis,
products / services basis, or any other measurement.
MATRIX STRUCTURE
When it comes to matrix structure, the organization places the employees based on the function
and the product. The matrix structure gives the best of the both worlds of functional and
divisional structures. In this type of an organization, the company uses teams to complete tasks.
The teams are formed based on the functions.
Every organization needs a structure in order to operate systematically. The organizational
structures can be used by any organization if the structure fits into the nature and the maturity of
the organization.

East zone Kolkata
West zone Bhopal
North Central zone Lucknow
South zone Bangalore
Each headquarter has certain no. of neighboring states under it & the functioning of those states
is controlled by the particular headquarter; each state has a State Office under each zone. Under
each state office there is Area Office & under each Area office there are Service sectors.
The organization Structure of IFFCO consists of Board of Director. The government of India
nominates two member of the board. The member of cooperatives societies nominates rest of
the members. A chairman is the functional Head of his organization since he has an elected
member. There is also a vice chairman elected by the member of the Board of director. Once of
the members of Board of directors is the Managing Director. The MD is the Executive Head
since he is an appointed member. The MD is responsible for carrying out all the function of the
organization.

MARKETING & DISTRIBUTION
A strong marketing team and a sound distribution network make the bottom line secure. Backed
by this belief, IFFCO has gone all out to extend its reach, resulting in the highest-ever sales of
fertilizer material this year. With the completion of Kalol Expansion Project, IFFCO is all set to
realize the objective of producing 100 lake tone of fertilizers, thereby attaining the distinction of
world leader in fertilizer production. Every fourth bag of fertilizer produced and every third bag
of fertilizer sold in the country belongs to IFFCO. Around 40,000 cooperative societies and 158
Farmers Service Centers spread cross 29 states and union territories in India make
sure that IFFCO’s products- NPK/ NP/DAP/UREA- are easily available to farmers.
These impressive figures have been made possible largely because of the fact that IFFCO
distributes its products through cooperative channels. Though the cooperative
structure may differ from state to state, the goal is to reach out to each district, taluka and village
and hence sell more. This year, IFFCO has dispatched around 86 lake tone of fertilizer material
from its plants and ports by rail and road. With the aim of delivering to the
doorstep of the farmer in all parts of the country, the organization hired storage space at more
than 1,700 locations.
IFFCO’s Farmers Service Centers not only supply material less than one roof, they are used as
contact points for providing technical know-how to farmers. These Centers also
organize promotional programmed such as soil test campaigns and farmers’ meetings.. During
2009-10, IFFCO has notched up a record sale of 93.24 lake tone of fertilizer material
comprising of 54.29 lake tone of urea and 38.95 lake tone of NPK/ DAP /NP witnessing a
growth of 8.3% as against 86.10 lake tones in the previous year. Best ever marketing
productivity also sprang to 6158 tone/head.

DISTRIBUTION & WAREHOUSHING
Distribution of Urea and inter-state movement is under government controlled and is regulated
under the Essentia l Commodit ies Act (ECA) 1956. Under ECA, supply plan for
Urea is formulated by the government in consultation with the State Department Of
Agriculture and Fertilizer industry. IFFCO urea is moved from factory to field warehouse
by both road and rail. Movement through rail is resorted to on a ne ed ba s is to
dis tant loc a t ions at the shor te s t t ime . Consumption of urea is seasonal thereby
rendering transportation, storage and distribution is very important.

FINANCE & ACCOUNTS
FINANCE & ACCOUNTS DEPARTMENT
In spite of constraints in availability of raw materials, and inordinate delays in receipt of large
subsidy amounts from Government of India, IFFCO has yet again delivered an impressive
financial performance in all its major parameters, namely, Revenue Growth, Operating Margins
and Resource Utilization testifying to robustness of its Corporate Strategy of creating multiple
drivers of growth. This was possible due to higher production, sales volume and improvement in
operating efficiencies. The Society achieved the highest ever.
Sales turnover of Rs211.9 billion in 2010-11 . This represents an increase of 18 per cent over the
previous year. It was brought out by higher volume of Sales of Fertilizer materials, which
increased to 93.24 Lakh tone fertilizer during 2009-10 as against 86.10 lakh tone in the previous
year. The performance is even more satisfying when viewed in the light of challenging business
environment of fertilizer industry.

PRODUCTION
The largest producer of fertilizers in the country, IFFCO has five state-of-the-art
plants that ensure its special position. These are considered to be among the best professionally
managed fertilizer plants in the world.
IFFCO had set up the KALOL plant for manufacture of Nitrogenous Fertilizer and KANDLA
plant for manufacture of Phosphoric fertilizer. These plants commenced commercial production
in the year 1974-75. Ammonia - urea complex was setup at Phulpur in the state of Uttar Pradesh
in 1981.

The ammonia - urea unit at Aonla was commissioned in 1988. As part of the new vision and in
order to augment its complex fertilizer manufacturing capacity, IFFCO
acquired DAP/NPK/NP plant in Paradeep, Orissa in September 2005. This was a historic
moment, for it was the first private sector unit to be acquired by any Indian cooperative.
The Paradeep unit was expected to achieve an optimal production load during 2008-09. During
2007-08, IFFCO’s plants rolled out 68.47 lake tonne of fertilizer material comprising 39.63 lake
tone of urea and 28.84 lake tonne of NPK/ DAP / NP which
be a r s ample te s t imony to its supe r la t ive pe r formanc e . IFFCO market share in

( AONLA TOWNSHIP GATE)

SWOT analysis is a technique through which managers create a quit overview of a company’s
strategic situation. It is based on the assumption that an effective strategy derives from a sound
fit between firms internal resources (strength & weakness) and its external situation
(opportunities & threats). A good fit maximizes a firm’s strength and opportunities and
minimizes its weakness and threats.
STRENGTH:-
1. Fertilizer is the basic raw material for agriculture production NO GOVT. can dare to
make policies which are not conducive to the farmers.
2. Demand of fertilizer is more in the country than the production capacity therefore
whatever is produced will be sold.
3. Government ensures the availability of raw material (NG/NAPHTHA) at reasonable price
as it has at subsidy of fertilizer is subsidizing product.
4. IFFCO is a co-operative organization and selling its product through co-operative
channel. There are only to organization IFFCO & KRIBCO. It means not much
competition in the channel.
5. All plants are of latest technology of art and are in healthy condition.
WEAKNESS:-
1. As per by law of the company it can fallows the co-operative channel only for sale of its
product. In case demand fall short in the channel company end up with higher stock
inventory.
2. Price of the product cannot be raised and government pay the subsidies as per its
calculation of fertilizers cost.

OPPORTUNITY:-
1. IFFCO can cut on cost by reducing energy consumption for per MT of UREA, thereby
enhancing its profitability. IFFCO has taken up energy saving product in all its five
AMMONIA plants at the cost of Rs 410 corer.
2. IFFCO can also reduce its fixed cost per MT of UREA by enhancing its production
capacity & thereby increase in production and profitability. IFFCO has taken up capacity
enhancement project for all its Ammonia & Urea plants.
3. IFFC O also taken up power project at Chhattisgarh.
4. IFFCO has also contributed 25% Equity in OMAN India fertilizers company (OMIFCO).
5. IFFCO is also perusing a multiproduct KISSAN SEZ at NELLORE in A.P.
6. IFFCO has also entered into a long term of take and supply agreement with international
holdings of AUSTRALIA for supplying rock phosphate to insure raw material supply
NPK/DAP fertilizers plants.
THREATS:-
1. NG supply in the country is not sufficient to meet present country requirement. However
NG in liquid form is imported from various gulf countries and rigidified at petro net in
Gujrat to meet demand of fertilizers units.
2. If supplies of NG suffer due to an region. It will be reflected in production of IFFCO.
3. NAPHTHA is also imported Gulf countries. Its rates are not stable in the international
market & it availability is also affected by its international demand.
4. Rock phosphate is also imported to produce NPK/DAP at IFFCO’s Kandla & Paradeep
unit. Supply of Rock phosphate is also a threat to the production NPK/DAP. It rate are
not stable in the international market.

ANALYSIS:-
With the finding of NG at KG basin of RIL most of requirement of fertilizers units will be meet
for the countries on resources and dependability on the import will be reduce thereby ensuring
the raw material supply to the fertilizer unit at reasonable price. Further IFFCO has made long
term agreement for procurement of Rock phosphate with various countries to overcome. It major
threats of raw materials for the production of NPK/DAP therefore it can be said that IFFCO is on
sound footing to protect it stability and enhance it profitability by cutting on cost and increasing
production in years to come.
STRATEGIES:-
1. IFFCO is doing its best to conserve energy & keeps it consumption at lowest label.
2. Enhance its production by enhancing the capacity of the existing plants & constructing
new plant.
3. Reducing cost by low energy consumption & increasing production to enhance it
profitability.
4. Ensure supply of raw material by entering into agreement nationally or international with
the suppliers.
5. IFFCO also care for the community. This commitment is reflected in many ways on day-to-
day bases. IFFCO believes in the welfare of society. It has embarked on much
corporate social responsibility (CSR) project. These projects cover education community
development environment & health.

FINDINGS
 Majority of the farmers are using IFFCO product and rest are using other including Tata,
Narmada & others.
 60% of the farmers are waiting for a particular brand of fertilizers
 Most of the farmers are selecting the fertilizers on brand basis and second major criteria
to select the fertilizers are availability.
 90% of the farmers desired for the plastic bag and only 10%for the jute bag
 70% of farmer’s desire 50kg pack & rest 30% prefer 25kg pack.
 In a village about 60% farmers meetings,15% Field Day,10% Socioeconomic &15%
Other Promotional Programmed were organized by IFFCO.
 I found that farmers are satisfied with the IFFCO fertilizers even in un adopted villages.
 There are a number of reasons to prefer the plastic bag:
o Moisture control.
o Reusable and strong.

SUGGESTION
1. The organiza t ion should e s tablish a na t iona l leve l commit te e which
c an familia r ize the government with the ground realities in the Fertilizer sector and
also advise the government in forma t ion of Polic ie s rega rding dis t r ibut ion
of fe r t il i ze r s , impor t of fe r t il ize r s and subsidies.
2. The re should an Ent repreneur ship Deve lopment Ce ll a t a ll plants
which should encourage innovation amongst employees. This would infuse some
of the positives of an organic design in to the organizational environment. This cell
should lay new business ideas and innovations in front of the top levels of management.
3. Unnecessary sub-divisions in departments should be eliminated to promote
efficiency. In the Personnel & Administration department one sub-division can handle
both Legal Matters and Contract Laws.
4. The Inspections & Plant Health Department can be dissolved. The
Maintenance Department can have an additional sub-division for Inspections & Plant
Health. This will streamline the organizational structure and also increase the efficiency
of overall maintenance.
5. The Co - ope ra t ion should not be r igid in its approa ch and should be
re ady to fa c e sudden variations in business environments. Managers
should not limit themselves to following regulations blindly but should proactively
analyze situations.

CONCLUSION
The organizational study of the IFFCO Aonla Plant and also the analyses of IFFCO
in general demonstrate that a bureaucratic organizational structure is not always inefficient. In
fact if properly applied it has many positive aspects especially in large and complex
organizations. For example some types of rules and regulations are required to avoid
unpredictability and arbitrary action. Some sort of hierarchal arrangement is necessary to manage
the large number of people in an organization. Therefore the key is to utilize the characters of a
bureaucratic structure but not to over emphasize on them as those results in rigidity in the
structure. In a bureaucratic organizational structure an efficient business environment may be
created by having the right mix of mechanistic and organic models. IFFCO's experience has
also shown that cooperative sector can succeed even in high investment high
technology areas like fertilizer production. The large scale extension activities and cooperative
development programmed have strengthened the bond between IFFCO and the Indian
farmers who are the consumers as well as members of the village level cooperative
societies. The confidence generated by this success has paved way for a vigorous
growth programmed to expand its existing units as we ll as e s tablish new units .
This will enable IFFCO to eme rge as a globa l le ade r in production and marketing
of chemical fertilizers located in a single country.
