Handbook of Vermiculture Technology and BioTechnology - Process and Formulations

<p align="justify"> <strong>What is BioFertilizers?</strong></p> <p align="justify"> The fertilizers which are used to improve the fertility of the land using bilogical wastes. they are extremely beneficial in enriching the soil with those micro-organisms, which import organic nutrients to the farm producers &amp; impact trength to combat with diseases too. the farm produces donot contain traces of hazardous &amp; poisonous materials. thus those products are accepted across the world's as organic ones. hence, for organic farming the use of biofertilizers is mandatory.</p> <p align="justify"> <strong>BIOFERTILIZERS FEW TERMS :</strong></p> <ol> <li align="justify"> <strong>Phospho : </strong>it releases insoluable phosphorous in soil &amp; fix this phosphorus in clay minerals which is of great significance in an agriculture.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Rhizo : </strong>rhizo bacterial plays a very important role in agriculture by inducing nitrogen fixings nodules on the roots of legumes such as peas, beans, cloves &amp; alfalfa.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Azotobactor : </strong>atmosphere contains 78% nitrogen which is very important nutrient for plant growth. Azotobactor fixes the atmospheric nitrogen in ths soil &amp; make it available to the plants . it protects the roots from other pathogens present in the soil.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Trichoderma : </strong>it is non-pathogenic &amp; eco-friendly product . the product is autogonistic hyper parasitic against different pathogens in the field &amp; economically well established biocontrol agent.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Composer (decomposing culture) : </strong>this breaks down any organic matter such as dead plants from yard waste, cattle waste etc., there by increasing the soil productivity.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Tricho-card : </strong>trichogramma is an efficient destroyer of eggs of many leaf &amp; flower eaters, stem fruit, shoot borers etc. it can be used in a variety of crop as well as in horitculture &amp; ornamental plants, such as sugarcane, cotton, brinjal, tomato, corn, jawar, vegetables, citrus, paddy, apple.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Vermi-compost : </strong>it is 100% pure eco-friendlly organic fertilizers. this organic fertilizer has nitrogen phosphorus, potassium, organic-carbon, sulphur, harmones, vitamins, enzymes &amp; antiboitics which help to improve the quality &amp; quantity of yield. it is observed that due to continuous misuse of chemical fertilizers soil losses its fertility &amp; gets salty day by day. to avoid this vermi-compost is used.</li> <li align="justify"> <strong>Bio-compost : </strong>it is eco-friendlly organic fertilizer which is prepared from the sugar industry waste material which is decomposed &amp; enriched of with various palnts &amp; human friendly bateria &amp; fungi. Bio-compost consists of nitrogen, phosphate, solubilizing bacteria &amp; various useful fungi like decomposing fungi, trichodorma viridea which protects the plants from various soil borne diseases &amp; also helps to increase soil fertility which results to a good quality products to farmers.</li> </ol>
