SPECTRUM : This organism is a free living nitrogen fixing bacterium, fixes atmospheric nitrogen in symbiotic association with plants thereby helping in reducing the use of chemical fertilizers. This increases the yield by 20% – 25% at a lower cost. It encourages better seed germination, impair disease resistance, improve soil health and soil fertility, secretes growth promoting hormones to increase crop productivity, reduces the dosage requirement of nitrogen (nearly 20% – 30%) and benefits the next crop. It can be used in crops like Cereals, Pulses, Cotton, Oilseeds, Vegetables, Fruit crops, Plantation crops etc.

MODE OF ACTION : The dormant form of Azotobacter spp. cells on reaching the soil gets activated and produces fresh batch of active cells.
