Biofertilizers-Rhizobium

Product Description :
Rhizobium sp. is the symbiotic nitrogen fixer which assimilates atmospheric nitrogen and fixes in the root nodule, formed in the roots of leguminous plants.
Suitable for:
Ground nut, Black gram, Green gram, Red gram, Cow pea, Bengal gram, Mustard, Soy bean, French bean, Cluster bean, Lab-Lab, Sesbania sp, leguminous trees etc.,
Advantage:

• Nitrogen fixation in the root & Stem nodules through the action of nitrogenase enzyme.
• It adheres on the surface of root and enters through the root hair. Inside the cortical cells it forms symbionts and fix nitrogen.
• The enzyme will reduce the molecular nitrogen to ammonia which is readily utilized by the plant.
• Rhizobium can fix 50-200 kgs N/ha in one crop season and can leave behind substantial quantities of about 20-30 kgs Na/ha for the succeeding crops.
• It can increase yield up to 10-35%.
• Due to rhizobial activities, the root hairs and nodules secrete a mucous substance which enhances the soil fertility and growth of the plant.
• By means of seed treatment, the germination of seeds gets stimulated and in turn increase crops yield potential.

Dosage and Method of application:

• Seed treatment: (200 gm per seed required for one acre.)
