Kuala lumpur: The National Farmers' Organisation (NAFAS) has fully completed the supply of 8,275 metric tonnes of urea fertiliser for the Muda Agricultural Development Authority (MADA) area, ahead of schedule. In a statement today, NAFAS said the supply, equivalent to 413,750 bags of urea fertiliser, was carried out through its subsidiary, Malaysian NPK Fertilizer Sdn Bhd (MNFSB), and delivered to designated stockists, namely Area Farmers Organisations (PPK).
According to BERNAMA News Agency, the supply was fully completed on July 31, 2026, just 23 days after the Letter of Acceptance (SST) was issued on July 1. This supply was also completed earlier than the expected full delivery date of Aug 7, 2026, for urea fertiliser for the MADA area.
NAFAS stated that the total requirement for Padi Compound Fertiliser 1 was 22,117.46 metric tonnes, with the entire requirement fulfilled through deliveries to the designated stockists. However, the supply of Padi Compound Fertiliser 3 is not managed or carried out by NAFAS or MNFSB. Therefore, any issues or delays related to its supply do not fall under the scope of the contract or the responsibility of either party.
The organization clarified its scope of responsibilities to prevent any confusion regarding its involvement in the supply of agricultural inputs in the MADA area. NAFAS also acknowledged that the smooth supply of agricultural inputs is directly linked to planting activities, productivity, and the welfare of padi farmers.
NAFAS reaffirmed its commitment to being a solutions partner to the government in addressing issues faced by farmers, aligning with its role in supporting the national food security agenda. The organization assured that the interests and welfare of farmers and padi planters would continue to receive attention.
NAFAS will continue to collaborate with the government, MADA, and related agencies to ensure the agricultural input supply chain is implemented optimally for the benefit of padi farmers and the sustainability of the national padi sector.
