Incorporating PRIMA Agro Tech’s microbial fertilisers into the cultivation of C4 plants significantly improves their nutrient uptake and overall health, leveraging the advantageous effects of microbes on photosynthesis.
Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens, known for their beneficial plant interactions, promote safe growth. They enhance nutrient availability through phosphorus solubilization, nitrogen fixation, and the production of growth-promoting compounds. These processes are vital for the robust development of C4 plants, such as maize, sugar cane, sorghum and millet, ensuring they access essential nutrients efficiently.
Furthermore, these microbes boost the plants’ resilience to abiotic stresses, including drought, which notably benefits C4 crops typically exposed to such challenges. They also strengthen the plants’ defences against diseases, mitigating stress from pathogens and potentially leading to healthier crops with improved yields.
Employing microbial fertilisers is a comprehensive strategy with precise applications to foster microbial quorum sensing and enhance seed immunisation. This approach establishes an enriched microbial ecosystem around the plants, with microbes that solubilize phosphate and improve the root environment to advance sustainable and efficient agricultural practices, a step forward in pursuing more regenerative farming practices.
