Synopsis

Biofertilizer is a substance which contains living microorganisms which, when applied to seed, plant surfaces, or soil, colonizes the rhizosphere or the interior of the plant and promotes growth by increasing the supply or availability of primary nutrients to the host plant. Biofertilizers add nutrients through the natural processes of nitrogen fixation, solubilizing phosphorus, and stimulating plant growth through the synthesis of growth-promoting substances. Biofertilizers can be expected to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Biofertilizers provide eco-friendly organic agro-input and are more cost-effective than chemical fertilizers. This book details on the technology of biofertlizer, uses and benefits of biofertilizer and its impact on environment.
