IFFCO's five fertiliser units in the country are functional and continuously operating in shifts to produce the fertilisers and essential soil nutrients so that this pandemic does not affect the agriculture activities.

"During these trying times where social distancing is practised, we are using apps like FaceTime /WhatsApp/Zoom/ Google Duo for video calls/messages, exchange of PPTs, PDFs and various other marketing material," said Amit Goyal, CEO, India Sotheby's International Realty.
