Importance of Zinc Solubilizing Bacteria in soil

Importance of Zinc Solubilizing Bacteria in soil
  • Zinc is an essential micronutrient required for plant growth. But it remains unavailable in the soil, which the plants cannot easily use.
  • There is a 50% zinc deficiency in India’s arable land. This micro element is helpful in controlling ‘Khaira disease’ in paddy and white bud disease in maize crop.
  • Adding zinc-solubilizing bacteria to the soil has several advantages, such as the continuous supply of available zinc, improving fertilizer use efficiency, crop yield, yield quality, improving soil health and increasing hormone activation.
  • Zinc soluble bacteria produce organic acids in the soil, causing the unavailable state of zinc to convert the available material to the plants, besides maintaining the pH balance of the soil.
  • At the time of last ploughing or at the time of sowing, 4 tonnes FYM or compost should be used by mixing 2-4 kg of zinc soluble bacteria in crops and dispersing it in one acre field.

  • Azola contains a microorganism of green algae species called Anabina which stabilizes atmospheric nitrogen in the presence of sunlight and contains 3.5 percent nitrogen and various types of organic matter which increase fertility of the land.
  • The use of azolla as a fertilizer is expected to increase the production of paddy crop by 5 to 15 percent.
  • The use of Azolla supplies protein, amino acids, vitamins, calcium, phosphorus, iron, which is good for the physical development of animals. 
  • Using azolla feed, it increases 20% more milk production than animals and its milk is found to be more fat and non-fat. 
  • Presently, given the availability of useful nutrients for animals, ajola can be called cheap, digestible and nutritious supplementary animal feed for milch animals, chickens and goats.

Testing soil with gramophone proved a boon for Khargone farmer

06/06/2020Posted on

The most important requirement for farming is the soil, hence the healthy soil is very important to get a good production from any crop. The same fact was understood by the farmer Mr. Shekhar Pemaji Chaudhary, a resident of village Pipri under Bhikgaon tehsil of Khargone district. Shekhar had been cultivating bitter gourd for the last few years, in which there was sometimes some loss or even some benefit, but this time he grew bitter gourd as per the advice of Gramophone, in which he got better profit.

This time, Shekhar got Gramophone agricultural experts to conduct soil testing of their fields before cultivation of bitter gourd and also got soil treatment done according to the advice of experts. By doing this, the nutrients in the soil were replenished and it was ready for harvest. After this, Shekhar cultivated bitter gourd and when it came to production, it was much higher than before.

So in this way, soil testing gave Shekhar good production from the bitter gourd crop. If you also want to get your soil tested, then you can contact our toll free number 18003157566 for this. You will be given every information related to soil testing here. Apart from this, you can also login on Gramophone Krishi Mitra app.

Importance of Rhizobium culture in soybean crop

05/06/2020Posted on
Importance of Rhizobium culture in soybean crop
  • Rhizobium is  a bacteria found in soybean roots which increases the crop yield by atmospheric nitrogen fixing. But currently the amount of undesirable elements in the soil has so much increased that the bacteria of Rhizobium in the soybean crop are unable to function to the best of their ability. 
  • Therefore, using Rhizobium culture produces fast legume in the roots of soybean crop and increases the yield of soybean by 50-60%.
  • The use of Rhizobium culture increases about 12-16 kg of nitrogen to the soil per acre.
  • Rhizobium culture is done by adding 5 grams per kg of seed for seed treatment and 1 kg of culture per 50 kg FYM before sowing for soil treatment.
  • Nitrogen deposited by Rhizobium bacteria present in the roots of the pulses is used in the next crop, which also requires less fertilization in the next crop.
