Sailung Enterprises unlikely to Import Fertilizer within Extended Deadline
Notice (8): Undefined index: caption [APP/View/Articles/view.ctp, line 241]

November 3: The government is unlikely to get chemical fertilizers even within the extended deadline because it awarded the contract to import fertilizers to a company that had not prior experience in importing fertilizers.

Sailung Enterprises, which was awarded the contract to import 30,000 metric tons of urea, has not been able to bring the fertilizer even as the deadline of contract is about to expire.

The deadline for Sailung Enterprises was extended for the second time to import 30,000 metric tons of urea even though it failed not bring 25,000 metric tons of urea within the initial deadline. Due to the inordinate delay, the farmers could not get chemical fertilizers during the wheat cultivation season.

Only a week is left for the contract agreement expire. However, the company has not brought the fertilizers yet. Sailung Enterprises was awarded the contract to import the fertilizers on July 2. Even after 110 days of getting the contract, the company has not been able to bring fertilizers yet.

Bishnu Pokharel of Agriculture Inputs Company Limited informed that the company should bring the fertilizers within the extended deadline.

But he added that the possibility of Sailung Enterprises bringing the fertilizers is extremely low this time as well. He said that the contract was given to the wrong company for the purchase of fertilizers. Pokharel added that they were unaware about as the weaknesses of the company before. It is widely believed that an inexperienced company was given the responsibility of importing fertilizer due to political pressure.
