Biofertilizers are defined as preparations containing living cells or latent cells of efficient strain of microorganisms that help crop plants in uptake of nutrients by their interactions in the rhizosphere, when applied through seed or soil. They accelerate certain microbial processes in the soil which augment the extent of availability of nutrients in a form easily assimilated by plants.Biofertilizer enhances nutrient availability and its efficiency, which results in improved growth and yield of spice crops.The biofertilizers are ecofriendly, cost-effective and organic-based inputs,which not only maintains soil health but also improves the growth and yield of spices.Hence, to popularize the biofertilizers in spices, novel nitrogenous biofertilizers viz; Microbacterium, Cellulosimicrobium, Paenibacillus and Azospirillum zeae were mass produced and distributed to the spice farmers of Wayanad district in Kerala under AINP on Soil Biodiversity-Biofertilizers, KAU, Thrissur Centre.The main objectives were to popularize native biofertilizers for spices so as to improve the growth of black pepper and ginger.
