Product Description:

Rhizobium is a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacterium that forms nodules on the roots of leguminous crops, enabling the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia, which plants can readily use. This naturally occurring process significantly reduces the need for synthetic nitrogen fertilizers and promotes soil fertility, plant health, and sustainable agriculture.

Rhizobium inoculation is crop-specific and must be matched with the appropriate strain based on the legume host. Common host crops include soybean, groundnut, chickpea, peas, lentils, beans, and more.

Key Benefits:

• ✅ Enhances nitrogen availability in legume crops

• ✅ Promotes vigorous plant growth and higher yields

• ✅ Reduces dependency on chemical nitrogen fertilizers by up to 50%

• ✅ Improves soil health through natural nitrogen cycling

• ✅ Supports organic and regenerative farming systems

Application Methods:

• Seed Treatment:
  Mix 200 g (powder) or 200 mL (liquid) Rhizobium with 10 kg of seeds using a mild adhesive like jaggery solution. Dry in shade before sowing.

• Soil Application:
  Mix 2–4 kg powder or 2 L liquid with 50 kg of compost or farmyard manure and apply per acre before or at sowing.

• Root Dipping (Transplanting Crops):
  Prepare a slurry using 1 L of Rhizobium in 10–15 L of water. Dip the root zone of seedlings before transplanting.

Recommended Crops:

• Legumes such as soybean, chickpea, pigeon pea, black gram, green gram, lentils, peas, groundnut, cowpea, French beans, and others

• Select the correct strain specific to each host crop for maximum effectiveness
