   Fertilizer distribution to padi farmers in the MADA area of Kedah has reached nearly 47 percent, with about 290,000 of the 616,000 bags distributed. However, farmer representatives have voiced concerns that the delay will cause yield losses of 20 to 40 percent, as the padi crops have already passed the optimal age for fertilization.
