MONO Azospirillum is a common soil inhabitant of tropics. It is an associative symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacterium. The organisms form associative symbiosis with many plants particularly with those having the C4 – dicarboxyliac pathway of photosynthesis. It fixes nitrogen in the roots of many non-leguminous crops like cereals, millets, forage crops and vegetables, etc. Besides fixing nitrogen,it also produces growth promoting substances/hormones such as indole acetic acid, gibberellins, pantothenic acid, thiamine and niacin required for vegetativegrowth of the plants. Moreover, it promotes root proliferation and improves the plant growth and yield. it increases the rootlet density and root branching resulting in the increased uptake of mineral and water.
Benefits
• Increases yield up to 10-30%
• Increases the root let density and root branching/root biomass
• It can supply 20-40kg of nitrogen per hectare per season
• Fixes atmospheric nitrogen and produces phytohormones
Doses/Method OF Application
Seed treatment
Take 3-5 gm and properly mix it with 1kg of seeds and dry it under the shade for half an hour before sowing.
Seedling dip/Sett treatment/planting material
Take 100 gm and dissolve in 80-100 liters of water. Mix it using a clean bamboo stick and then dip the planting material in this solution for 30 minutes before using it in the field.
Soil Application
Take 1 kg mix it with 100-150kg well-decomposed farmyard manure. Broadcast it over one acre of land before last ploughing or first irrigation.
