Biofertilizers are microorganisms containing formulations used to supply nutrients to the plants in an eco-friendly manner. N 2 fixers, phosphate solubilizers, phosphate mobilizers, and plant growth promoters are the types of biofertilizers widely used by farmers for the enhancement of soil fertility and agricultural production (Baby …
In summary, the adoption of biofertilizers in agriculture offers a multifaceted range of benefits that extend beyond enhanced crop production. These benefits align with the principles of sustainable farming, encompassing soil health improvement, environmental impact reduction, cost-effective farming, and the conservation of biodiversity.
Biofertilizers are classified as N-fixing, phosphate solubilizing, phosphate mobilizing, potassium solubilizing, potassium mobilizing, and sulfur oxidizing. The first commercial outbreak of biofertilizer is launch of "Nitragin" in 1895. For the preparation of biofertilizer, microbes need to be mass-cultivated, maintaining culture pH ...
