DIFFERENT TYPES OF BIOFERTILIZERS
Biofertilizers are the substance which contains microorganisms in it which when sprayed on seeds,plant ,soil helps in providing the nutrients required for the growth of the plant.There are different types of biofertilizers available in the market
Lets us learn the the biofertilizers that can be grouped based on their nature and function
- N fixing biofertilizers
- P solubilizing biofertilizers
- P mobilizing biofertilizers
- Biofertilizers for micro nutrients and
- Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria
Different types of biofertilizers
- Rhizobium : The symbiotic nitrogen fixing Bacteria which infect root nodules which performs function of reducing nitrogen to ammonia which plant can readily utilizes and produce protein and vitamin
Eg. Rhizobium leguminosarum – pea group
2.Azotobacter: Free-living Nitrogen fixing aerobic Bacteria. These cells are abundantly available at rhizosphere
Growth is restricted by less amount of organic matter in soil
Used as biofertilizer in non leguminous plants like rice, vegetables etc
- Azospirillum: Nitrogen fixing bacteria In nonleguminous plants like cereals, millets, cotton etc.
- Cyanobacteria : onecelled to many celled aquatic blue green algae
- Phosphate solubilizing microorganisms
- Azolla : Free floating water fern which fix atmospheric nitrogen along with Blue green algae
It works great in case of rice
- Plant growth promoting Rhizobacteria

VAM - Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizae.
Fungal microfilaments (hyphae) adhere to the roots and improve nutrient accessibility. It’s made up of 90% Endo mycorrhizae and 10% Ecto mycorrhizae. Aids in the absorption of nutrients from the soil, particularly Phosphorus (P). Plant establishment, growth, and soil aggregation are all aided by this substance. During dry periods, it improves resistance. Plant productivity is increased.
Dosage: 4 kg/acre with any Fertilizer.
