The administration of plant growth-promoting microbes as inoculants to attain improved crop
yield with enhanced soil fertility is the most efficient technique for achieving sustainability in …

The use of microorganisms in agriculture as bioinoculant is a very important practice and a
growing need too. In spite of countless research, the rate of success is remarkably low. To …

Commercial production of legume inoculants began in 1895 in the USA and UK. In the
1980s they are produced in all continents. Most are used with powdered organic carriers …

The use of peat as a currier for Rhizohium inoculants in many countries is hindered by its
unavailability or high cost. The capability of soil to support survival of rhizobia implies that …

Additives in bioformulation ensure longer shelf life, proper spreading upon application and
better adherence to seed surfaces thereby leading to enhanced plant growth and tolerance …

Azotobacter vinelandii was cultured on technical lignin, derived from Kraft pulping
processes, for biofertilizer production in solid-state fermentation. The effects of the ratio of …

The traditional carriers viz., lignite and peat used in the biofertiliser industry are non-
renewable, costly, non eco-friendly and have very limited reservoirs in India. Therefore, the …

In the present investigation four carriers-bagasillo, peat, charcoal and coal were evaluated
for the production of bioinoculants. The bacteria used for bioinoculant development were …

This paper reports the improvement of the survival ability of an inoculated phosphate
solubilizing bacteria (PSB; Burkholderia cepacia) over a long period by enriching it with …

Wheat straw impregnated with a nutrient solution was used to culture Rhizobium
leguminosarum. The fermentation was carried out in a periodic pressure, oscillating, solid …
