EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is based on the study which was conducted at MCF Mangalore chemical and fertilizer in Mangalore In this report it contains the information of 4 major departments essential for the working and continued existence of the company for the smooth functioning of these departments and very essential for the success of the company . It is a 24hr process for producing fertilizer and the equipments which are used are advanced so that they are of high quality. Since the production is continuous the marketing team does not have a specific amount of fertilizers to sell, as and when the product is finished it has to be sold to farmers The marketing team uses the distribution channel for selling the product by using the information on climate condition and since this is subsidised industry advertising is banned which makes the job even more complicated The financial position of MCF, since its inception has not been very stable but they are striving hard to achieve financial prospective in the years to come. The company believes in social service and assistance to the people in need. They also conducted educational programs for farmers to educate them on the right type of fertilizer for the right type of soil and crop. MCF has a unique way of managing finance which is done through a inbuilt software SAP which is built in all the systems. This report contains all the workings of the four departments and my observations of the departments.MCF strives for quality and farmer prosperity always and this has made MCF an important player in the fertilizer and chemical industry.

Industry Profile The fertilizer industry presents one of the most energy intensive sectors within the Indian economy and is therefore of particular interest in the context of both local and global environmental discussions. Increases in productivity through the adoption of more efficient and cleaner technologies in the manufacturing sector will be most effective in merging economic, environmental, and social development objectives. A historical examination of productivity growth in Indias industries embedded into a broader analysis of structural composition and policy changes will help identify potential future development strategies that lead towards a more sustainable development path. Man's use of fertilizer dates back to the Neolithic Era but chemical fertilizer is, by historical standards, quite new. They were developed to replenish soils depleted by harvesting and primarily consist of three types, called NPK fertilizers (N for nitrogen, P for phosphorus and K for potassium). Origin The first chemical fertilizer was phosphorus-based and was invented in the early 19th century. It was composed of superphosphate made by treating bones with sulphuric acid. Early Formulation and Development The bone material in phosphorous (P) fertilizer was quickly replaced with phosphate rock and coprolites (fossilized animal focal matter). Potassium (K) fertilizers were first developed in Germany in 1861 and in North America between 1914 and 1919. Use of K fertilizers expanded when potassium deposits were discovered in New Mexico in 1931 and again in the Saskatchewan territory in 1958. The first N fertilizer, Calcium Nitrate was formulated in 1903. Use and Advancement The use of NPK fertilizers (particularly nitrogen and phosphorus) had been steadily rising since 1945. The federally owned Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) was formed in 1933 and was given the responsibility of improving the manufacturing and use of fertilizer nationwide. Today, over 75 percent of the chemical fertilizers manufactured in the United States are made using processes developed by the TVA. Pricing Policy of Government To encourage balanced fertilizer use and make fertilizers available to farmers at affordable prices , the Central Government determines and notifies the selling price of urea as well as decontrolled P & K fertilizers such as Di-ammonium Phosphate (DAP), Muriate of Potash(MOP), Single Super Phosphate(SSP) and complexes. The current selling prices of

Urea and P & K fertilizers are less than the cost of production, the difference between selling price and the cost of production as assessed by the Government is borne as subsidy. The subsidy on Urea is Rs. 22,661.89 per tonne, on complex fertilizer 20:20:00:13 is Rs.5,640.20 per tonne and on DAP is Rs. 15,183.24 per tonne, the total subsidy accounted for the year ended 2010-11 was Rs.1,614 Cr. The New Pricing Scheme (NPS) for Urea announced by the Government of India in March 2007 expired by 31-03-2010. The policy specifies that all Naphtha/Furnace Oil/LSHS based units should convert to gas by 31-03-2010. Despite readiness of the Company for, nonavailability of gas within this deadline is a concern. The policy on Phosphatic fertilizers has been recently announced based on the recommendation of the Tariff Commission effective from 01-04-2008 with some deviations. The concession for the indigenous Di-ammonium Phosphate (DAP) is restricted at the same level of imported DAP, as against higher rate of concession given in the past. Under the new policy, concession for Complex fertilizers will be unit based which amounts to rolling back to unit based pricing policy. Global fertilizer prices Urea prices have been hardening from US$ 229.3 in June 2010 and US$ 327.8 per tonne in March 2011 to US$ 485.90 per tonne in June 2011, but eased marginally there from to US$ 474.8 in July 2011. The prices were 35% higher in April 2011, but the rise surged to 73% higher in May 2011 and ascended further to 112% higher in June 2011, on y-o-y basis, before decelerating to 90% spike in July 2011. Table showing global Urea, DAP & MOP prices in US $ per tonne

DAP prices sizzled from US$ 277.8 per tonne in June 2010 to US$ 650.6 by July 2011. DAP prices were 32% higher in April and May 2011, but the growth increased to 40% higher in June 2011 and 41% higher in July 2011, on y-o-y basis. Likewise, MOP prices flared up from US$ 312.50 in March 2011 to US$ 461.3 per tonne in July 2011. MOP prices were 32% higher in April 2011, 33% higher in May 2011, 37% higher in June 2011 and 44% higher in July 2011, on y-o-y basis.

Indian Scenario
The Indian Fertilizer Industry is one of the allied sectors of the agricultural sphere. India has emerged as the third largest producer of nitrogenous fertilizers. The adoption of back to back Five Year plans has paved the way for self sufficiency in the production of food grains. In fact production has gone up to an extent that there is scope for the export of food grains. This surplus has been facilitated by the use of chemical fertilizers. The large scale use of chemical fertilizers has been instrumental in bringing about the green revolution in India. The fertilizer industry in India began its journey way back in 1906. During this period the first Single Super Phosphate (SSP) factory was established in Ranipet in Chennai. It had a capacity of producing 6000 MT annually. In the pre and post independence era a couple of large scale fertilizer units were established namely the Fertilizer Corporation of India in Sindri, Bihar and the Fertilizer & Chemicals Travancore of India Ltd in Cochin, Kerala. The fertilizer industry is one of the most energy intensive sectors within Indian economy and is therefore of particular interest in the context of both local and global environment discussions. Increase in productivity of this good with the use of cleaner and more efficient technologies in the manufacturing sector will be most effective immerging economic, environment and social development objectives. Being the backbone of agricultural productivity, the role of fertilizers will always remain crucial in developing countries like India, with increase in demand for food the demand for fertilizer supply has experienced an upward shift. There is little doubt that improved productivity can only be attained through better management of inputs, including fertilizers. The Indian Government has devised policies conducive to the manufacture and consumption of fertilizers. Numerous committees have been formed by the Indian government to formulate and determine fertilizer policies. The dramatic development of the fertilizer industry and the rise in its production capacity has largely been attributed to the favourable policies. This has

resulted in large scale investments in all three sectors viz. public, private and co-operative. At present there are 57 large scale fertilizer units. These manufacture an extensive range of phosphatic, nitrogenous and complex fertilizers. The Department of Fertilizers is responsible for the planning, promotion and development of the Fertilizer industry. It also takes into account the import and distribution of fertilizers and also the financial aspect. There are four main divisions of the department. These include Fertilizer Imports, Movement and Distribution, Finance and Accounts, Fertilizers Projects and Planning and Administration and Vigilance. It makes an assessment of the individual requirements of the states and union territories and then lays out an elaborate supply plan. Though the soil in India is rich in silt, it lacks chief plant nutrients like potassium, nitrogen and phosphate. The increase in the production of fertilizers and its consumption acts as a major contributor to overall agricultural development. Agriculture accounts for about one fifth of Indian GDP and provides livelihood to nearly two third of the population. Hence, the government has always been focusing on self-reliance in food grain production and this has resulted in substantial increase in agriculture production and yield. Chemical fertilizers have played a vital role in this regard. The government has consistently been pursuing policies to increase the availability and consumption of fertilizers in the country. Fertilizers production in India is nutrient wise. The three main nutrients- Phosphate, Potash and Nitrogen (Urea) are used for fertilizers creation. Urea, ammonium sulphate, calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) and ammonium chloride are the nitrogenous fertilizers produced in India and single superphosphate (SSP) is the only phosphatic fertilizer that is produced in India. Additionally, nutrients are combined to produce several complex fertilizers. Production of complex fertilizers include DAP (Diammonium Phosphate), several grades of nitro phosphates and NPK complexes. Urea, DAP, SSP and Muriate of Potash (MOP) are the most commonly used fertilizers. Among these, urea and DAP are the main fertilizers that are produced indigenously. Due to the lack of viable resources or reserves of potash in India, the entire feedstock requirement for potassic fertilizers are imported. Thus, Potash based fertilizer demand is entirely met by imports, for Phosphate fertilizer raw materials are imported and lastly Natural Gas and LNG is being imported for Urea fertilizer production. In India, technical problems, power shortages and stringent Government policies lead to

problems in production expansion and high import prices is a matter of concern especially for farmers. Fertilizer in the agricultural process is an important area of concern. An impetus to the growth of fertilizer industry in India was given by Green revolution in Sixties. Further a significant addition to the production was witnessed in seventies and eighties. The fertilizer industry has played a pivotal role in achieving self-sufficiency in food grains as well as in rapid and sustained agricultural growth. India is third largest producer and consumer in the world after China and the United States. The growth of Indian fertilizer has been largely determined by the policies pursued by the government which mainly confine to controls on the pricing, distribution and movement of fertilizers. However, fertilizer consumption also depends on various agriculture related factors such as soil quality, farming methods, cropping pattern, rainfall and irrigation patterns, different geographical aspects, calamities, availability of technology and information, varieties and quality of seeds as well as access to capital and credit and other inputs. The average annual growth of fertilizer consumption achieved at the end of the Tenth Plan was about 4%. During the start of the Tenth Plan Period the country was drought affected, and therefore, its consumption of fertilizers fell by about 7.30% over the previous year. However, the growth in consumption started picking up during the following years. In fact, the increase in consumption was higher than the growth in production and the balance was met with imports. Indian fertilizer sector has been caught unawares of spike in global fertilizer prices on the one hand, and factoring in lower prices in the nutrient based subsidy scheme. After hard posturing for couple of quarters, finally the Indian fertilizer industry inked deals on import of Muriate of Potash (MOP) in US$ 490 500 per tonne levels, on an average. India is dependent on imports for its entire MOP requirements as there are no known potash resources in the country.

Name of the Concrete mixture SNF liquid SNF powder 18,998 49,000

Because of this type of fertilizer pricing policy and control on the raw material the production of the fertilizer is shrunken. The pricing policy of the Government will affect the profitability of the company. According to the employees of the company the government pricing policy should be removed, so that the company can fix its own sales price for its products. .

Soil Conditioners - In the changing agriculture scenario, where the fertile and productive land area is shrinking due to unscientific and surfeit use of chemicals and fertilizers, there is an urgency to correct the soil condition to suit for modern agriculture.

Soil conditioners are termed as materials which when added to the soil help in improving or maintaining its physical conditions with improved physical and chemical health of soil that resultantly improve biological health. In the Integrated Nutrient Management approach, soil conditioners are integral part of the agronomic package.

Mangala Setright for Alkaline Soils - Mangala Setright for Alkaline Soils brings down the pH of alkaline soils and neutralizes the adverse p. Mangala Setright for Acidic Soils brings increases the pH of acidic soils and neutralizes the toxicities.It improves physical and chemical health of the soil.

Organic Products - The productivity of Indian soils has drastically come down. This has
necessitated increasing the productivity per unit area per unit time. This is becoming difficult as the soil health has deteriorated alarmingly. One of the main reasons of this is the ever reducing soil organic matter content. Improving the soil organic carbon content by application of suitable organic matter and manures is the only option. For realising the benefit of application of organic matter, the product should be well decomposed and of good quality. Moreover, if the product can offer more benefits to the farmer than a mere organic manurial value, it is then the farmer realised more value for money.

ASSESSMENT OF THE INTERNSHIP I am thankful for the opportunity given by SBS (Swiss Business School) to apply my knowledge in obtaining maximum information from MCF Mangalore chemical and fertilizer. I have gained more practical knowledge and I have learnt what the major functional areas in the organization are. The company has to work day in and out to make sure there are no errors. For the organization to function at its best all the functional areas of the organization must be functioning at their optimum level and MCF has succeeded in doing so. My experiences in MCF in these months have been very informative. The most creative part of this company is how the company creates awareness and makes sure that the product reaches in the best possible manner to the end consumer. While observing I found that every functional department in the firm gave me knowledge of the chemical and fertilizer department. I would conclude by saying that the months of internship and organizational study in MCF was a benefit to me because now I have the knowledge of management and practical experience from the company.

CONCLUSION The overall study of the organization reveals that the company has 4 departments and each department is functioning to the best of its capacity to improve and achieve its targets. The financial department has implemented SAP software for efficient collection of data, the turnover of MCF is Rs 2,523.83cr for the year 2010-2011 and it is the only chemical and fertilizer manufacturing company in Karnataka. It has been certified by ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. It has grown tremendously since it started in 1966. Here we come to know that marketing department plays a very important role in educating the farmers and informing them about the usage of fertilizers which helps in selling the product.The Human Resource department is involved in taking care of the needs of the employees and in training the employees. The works department is involved in the day to day running of the plant and for the maintenance of the plant.
