SUN BIO AZOS (BIO FERTILIZER AZOSPIRILLUM)

About SUN BIO AZOS (BIO FERTILIZER AZOSPIRILLUM)

• Sun Bio Azos contains associative symbiotic Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria, Azospirillum.
• It fixes atmospheric nitrogen and make it available to the plants by living in close proximity with the root zone.
• It is tolerant to low pH and salt.
• It can form cyst to tide over unfavorable conditions.
• Thus it thrives and maintains its population during favorable conditions.
• It can provide 30 to 50% of nitrogen requirement of the plant.

Sun Bio Azos Biofertilizer Technical Details

• Technical Name: Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria Azospirillum (CFU: 2 x 109Cells / ml)
• Mode of Action: When Azospirillum is applied to the soil the dormant cells get activated and start to divide & redivide by using the Carbon sources available in the root exudates & rhizopshere. In many plants it attaches itself to the root & uses the carbon sources from the root exudates therefore this is described as an associative N-fixing bacterium. Sometimes it enters into the internal cortical tissues and becomes endophytic. It produces growth promoting substances like Indol Acetic Acid (IAA), Gibberellins & promotes root proliferation. The ammonium ion that is produced by this reaction is in the form of nitrogen that is used by living systems in the synthesis of many bio-organic compounds.

Key Features and Benefits

• The effective strain used in Azos culture fixes about 15 to 20 kg N/ha.
• In certain conditions, anti-fungal activities exhibited by this culture indirectly manage fungal diseases.
• Sun Bio Azos Azospirillum reduces expenditure on chemical nitrogenous fertilizers by up to 30%.
• It increase crop growth, yield and quality.
• Increases soil microbial activity thereby enhancing soil fertility.
• Certain growth promoting substances released by Sun Bio Azos are useful for increasing seed germination, plant growth, vigour and yield.
