Abstract:
In order to investigate the problems of farmer towards getting fertilizer a study was
conducted in Muktagacha upazilla under Mymensingh district during January 2019 to
June 2019 .There only the small scale farmers in total respondents were randomly
selected for interviews. This study is conducted with the direct interview to the farmers.
Farmers are selected randomly by the preference of their Age, land ownership, cultivation
crops, amount of fertilizer they need, how they purchased fertilizer etc. Some discussion
with the local dealers is conducted to know the marketing activities of fertilizer. Most of
the cases farmers are ready to answer the questions but in some matters (Income, actual
production) the tried to hide something or ambiguous. Under this study it is clear that
when farmers have no much money on that time they need fertilizer and when they have
money on that time there is no use of fertilizer also they have no so much market
information. Government subsidy is good enough but they did not get fertilizer on credit
so With all other supports management of farmers need and availability can reduce the
problem.
