SWOT Analysis
Strength: Granular urea offers high content of nitrogen which improves plant growth and development. It dissolves quickly in water and disperses uniformly which ensures even distribution of nutrients in soil. Being granular in form, it is easy to apply granular urea using common fertilizer spreaders.

Weakness: Granular urea is prone to losses due to leaching and volatilization if not applied properly or during rains. Its high solubility can also cause nutrient run-off into water bodies impacting the aquatic life. Improper usage of granular urea leads to pollution and eutrophication of water.

Opportunity: Increasing awareness about benefits of balanced fertilization is driving demand for products like granular urea. The growing organic and sustainable farming practices also provide opportunities to market bio-based and slow-release variants of granular urea. Promoting techniques to minimize losses during application can boost its adoption.

Threats: Stringent regulations pertaining to nitrogen fertilizer usage may hamper market prospects. Availability of substitute fertilizers and adoption of precision farming threatens overall demand for granular urea. Climatic uncertainties pose challenges in judicious application of urea fertilizers.
