Bio-Bacter liquid formulation
Background:
Nitrogen is one of the major nutrients required by plants. Most of the requirement of nitrogen is met through use of chemical fertilizers. However, the use of chemical fertilizers is detrimental to the soil and environment. Use of green technologies like microbe-based technologies can supplement the use of chemical fertilizers.
Technology Details:
The formulation contains effective strain of Azotobacter which is free living nitrogen fixer. It is a multipurpose strain and not only contributes nitrogen but also produces IAA and can solubilize little amount of P. Azotobacter is not specific for any crop plant and can be routinely used to supplement nitrogen in all the crops. When applied as seed inoculant it can add 15-20 kg/ha nitrogen to the soil.
