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.
