Abstract:

Biofertilizers comprises living microorganisms symbiotically associated with plants, when applied to soil or a propagule intends to increase the soil fertility, seed germination and plant growth by encouraging the efficient supply of nutrients to the plants. Since past 50-60 years, soil management practices are mostly reliant on inorganic fertilizers, which has invited serious fortune to the environment (ruining soil fertility and increased pollution) and human health problems (disease risk). Heeding to it researchers have found an eco-friendly alternative by the way of incorporating microbial biofertilizers to supersede chemical fertilizers. Microbial biofertilizers has been analysed as substitute in procuring soil fertility and expanding vegetable production. Microbial fertilizers are promising enough to outstand the chemical fertilizers ensuring sustainable agriculture without disrupting the environment.
