Bio Fertilizerss


One of the major concerns in today's world is the pollution and contamination of soil. The use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has caused tremendous harm to the environment. An answer to this is the bio fertilizer, an environmentally friendly fertilizer now used in most countries. Bio fertilizers are organisms that enrich the nutrient quality of soil. The main sources of biofertilizers are bacteria, fungi, and cynobacteria (blue-green algae). The most striking relationship that these have with plants is symbiosis, in which the partners derive benefits from each other.
Plants have a number of relationships with fungi, bacteria, and algae, the most common of which are with mycorrhiza, rhizobium, and cyanophyceae. These are known to deliver a number of benefits including plant nutrition, disease resistance, and tolerance to adverse soil and climatic conditions. These techniques have proved to be successful biofertilizers that form a health relationship with the roots.
Bio fertilizers will help solve such problems as increased salinity of the soil and chemical run-offs from the agricultural fields. Thus, biofertilizers are important if we are to ensure a healthy future for the generations to come.
Advantages of Bio fertilizers in general
• Add nutrients (Nitrogen) to the soil / make them (Phosphorous) available to the cop.
• Secrete certain growth promoting substances.
• Under certain conditions they exhibit anti-fungal activities and thereby protect the plants from pathogenic fungi.
• Harmless and Eco-friendly low cost agro-input supplementary to Chemical Fertilizers
• Improve soil structure (porosity) and water holding capacity.
• Enhance seed germination.
• Increase soil fertility, Fertilizer Use Efficiency and ultimately the yield by 15-20 % in general.
How Bio Fertilizers Work
There is an abundance of bio polymers like proteins, fats, fibers and other carbohydrates in natural soils. Bacteria in soil digest these large biopolymers to respective smaller monomers. Proteins are digested to amino acids, carbohydrates and fiber to sugars and fats/lipids to fatty acids by the soil bacteria. Plants can easily absorb these small molecules or monomers. Additionally, the soil-bacteria help the plant-roots to absorb Major and minor nutrients present in the soils. The soil-bacteria also release biochemicals which accelerate the plant growth.
