Abstract
Fertilize and pesticides play a vital role in the modern agriculture. Use of fertilizer in agriculture is as old as agriculture it’s self. Fertilizers are the main variable deciding the cost and the quality of the production. With the innovation in agriculture sector NPK become a great substitute of traditional fertilizers. In present research study an attempt has been made to examine the trends and correlation of NPK and productivity. The study is based on secondary data collected from different sources. Study concludes that ratio of NPK was not according to the ideal standard in 1966-67 and not even in 2014-15. The growth of use of NPK remained high as compared to area and production which indicates that per hectare consumption of NPK increased. Further a more strong correlation has been found between use of NPK and productivity as comparison to use of pesticides and productivity.
