Promote biofertilisers as alternative to chemical ones

BIOFERTILISERS are “natural fertilisers that contain living microorganisms (live biomass or dormant cells of effective microbial strains) which, when applied to seed, plant surfaces, or soil, colonises the rhizosphere (i.e., plant-root interface) and promotes growth by increasing the supply or availability of primary nutrients to the host plant”.
