About this item

• Azotobacter is an aerobic, free living soil microbe which plays an important role in the Nitrogen cycle in nature. This organism directly converts the atmospheric nitrogen, which is inaccessible to the plants, into ammonium ions and release them to the soil. They also synthesize phytohormones like Auxins, Gibberellins and Cytokinins, thus stimulating plant growth.
• Suitable for all crops – cereals, vegetables, plantation crops, ornamental plants and even legumes.
