Bio-fertilizers are an environmentally friendly and cost-effective renewable source of plant nutrients that supplement fertilizers. Bio-fertilizers contain living or latent micro-organisms cells that are capable of fixing the atmospheric nutrients or solubilize the insoluble nutrient for the plant’s absorption. They are also excellent for enhancing nutrient availability in soil.

These are categorized based on fertilizers capability to solubilize the specific nutrient.

Nitrogenous Bio-fertilisers:  Capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen, the bacterial organisms present in the Nitrogenous bio-fertilizer either fix atmospheric nitrogen or solubilize insoluble forms of soil nutrients. IFFCO’s nitrogen-fixing bio-fertilizers are Rhizobium, Azotobacter, and Acetobacter.

Phosphate Solubilising Bacteria (PSB): Capable of fixing phosphorous and make it available for plants uptake by solubilize insoluble forms of phosphate.

Potassium Mobilizing Bio-fertiliser (KMB): Capable of solubilizing Potassium from insoluble compounds and providing it for plant uptake.

Zinc Solubilizing Bio-fertiliser (ZSB): Capable of solubilizing ZINC from insoluble compounds and providing it for plant uptake.

NPK liquid consortia: a consortium of nitrogen, phosphorus & potassium solubilizing micro-organisms
