  1. Biofertilizer use in Banana

  2. Biofertilizers use in Banana Introduction The importance of biofertilizer as a component of integrated Nutrient Management (INM) is viewed as sustainable crop production system, not only on yield maximization but also for the agro-system stability. In this RLO , types of biofertilizers, importance and methods of their application are described. Modern agriculture utilizes more and more synthetic fertilizers. Excessive use directly or indirectly causes soil ill health and declines crop productivity.

  3. Importance of Biofertilizer Biofertilizers use in Banana • Natural organic fertilizer. • Increases the quality of the soil. • Reduces toxicity of soil, water, food, animals and even people. Cont.

  4. Action of Biofertilizers Biofertilizers use in Banana • Biofertilizers contains a wide range of naturally chelated plant nutrients like • Trace elements • Carbohydrates • Amino acids • Growth promoting substances. • Soil conditioner stimulating microbial activities resulting in improved air-water relationships and soil fertility. Cont.

  5. Uses of Biofertilizers Biofertilizers use in Banana • Organic farming increases yield, quality and the shelf-life of produces. • Resistance to environmental stresses and pest and disease problems. • Foliar applications can increase the • Health • Vigor • Yield • Bio fertilizers are eco-friendly and can be used generously to promote healthy crops. • The quality of the soil is improved.

  6. Types of Biofertilizers Biofertilizers use in Banana • Nitrogen • Rhizobium for legume crops • Azotobacter/ Azospirillum for non legume crops • Acetobacter for sugarcane • BGA and Azolla for low land paddy.

  7. Biofertilizers use in Banana Types of Biofertilizers • Phosphorous • Phosphobacteria for all crops to be applied with Rhizobium, • Azotobacter, Azospirillum and Acetobacter Phosphorous solubilizing bacteria (PSB)

  8. Biofertilizers use in Banana Types of Biofertilizers • Enriched compost • Cellulolytic fungal culture • Phosphobacteria and Azotobacter culture

  9. Vesicular Arbuscular Endomycorrhiza (VAM) Biofertilizers use in Banana • Mycorrhizae is the symbiotic association between plant roots and soil fungus. • Vesicular Arbiscular Mycorrhizae (VAM) plays a great role in inducing plant growth. • Makes resistance to environmental stresses. Cont.

  10. Vesicular Arbuscular Endomycorrhiza (VAM) Biofertilizers use in Banana • AM increase the resistance to root borne or soil borne pathogens and Nematodes. • Enhanced colonization of beneficial soil organisms like • Azotobacter • Azospirillum • Rhizobium • Phosphate solubilizing bacteria.

  11. Recommendation of biofertilizers to Banana Biofertilizers use in Banana 1. For Sucker Treatment Cont.

  12. Biofertilizers use in Banana 2. Basal Application (0-45 days from the date of planting) Cont.

  13. Biofertilizers use in Banana 3. Foliar Application (60-75 days from the date of planting)

  14. Methods of Application Biofertilizers use in Banana Soil application • Mix 4 kg each of biofertilizers in 200 kg of compost and leave it overnight. • 200 g per sq. m in seed/nursery bed. • 2 g per seedling in the Nursery stage. • 5 g per seedling at the time of planting. • 10-15 g per garden tree and fruit tree respectively. Cont.

  15. Biofertilizers use in Banana Methods of Application • 100-200 g per plant of grown tree species. • 3-5 kg/acre of VAM can be applied in 2-3 cm depth. • Mix 4 kg each of biofertilizers in 200 kg of compost and leave it overnight. • Apply this mixture in the soil at the time of sowing or planting. • In plantation crops apply this mixture near root zone and cover with soil.

  16. Sucker Treatment Biofertilizers use in Banana • Suspend 200 g N Biofertilizer and 200 g Phosphobacteria in 300-400 ml of water and mix thoroughly. • Mix this paste with 10 kg seeds & dry in shade. • Sow immediately. • Dip the roots of seedlings in this suspension for 30-40 min before transplanting.

  18. Precautions Biofertilizers use in Banana • Store the biofertilizer packets in cool and dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. • Use right combination of biofertilizers. • Rhizobium is crop specific, so use in specified crop. • Do not mix with chemicals.

  19. Biofertilizers use in Banana Let us Sum Up • Use of chemical fertilizer leads to cause of soil deterioration and water pollution. • In view of the disadvantages associated with the use of chemical fertilizers, it is important to use alternative sources, which are environment friendly. • Biofertilzers, most of which are nitrogen fixing microorganisms, are considered to be suitable alternative source of plant nutrition. • Farmers can adopt this technology to improve the land resources and save natural environment.
