Importance of zinc solubilizing bacteria in the soil

Zinc is an essential micronutrient required for plant growth. But it remains in the soil in an unavailable form which plants cannot use easily. This microelement is helpful in the control of ‘Khaira disease’ in paddy.
Mixing zinc-soluble bacteria in the soil has many benefits such as improving fertilizer use efficiency, crop yield, crop quality, improving soil health and increasing hormonal activity.
Zinc solubilizing bacteria produce organic acids in the soil, which convert the zinc element lying in the unavailable state into the available form for plants, besides this, they maintain the balance of soil pH.
At the time of last ploughing or sowing, apply “Zinc solubilizing bacteria” mixed with 2-4 kg of well-rotted farmyard manure per acre.
