The role of microbial fertilizers in diversified cropping systems

Agronomic, Biochemical and Metabolic Responses of Tomato to Vermicompost and Mineral Fertilization in Loam and Clay Soils

The intensive use of mineral fertilizers in horticultural systems has improved crop productivity but also increased concerns regarding soil degradation and environmental sustainability. In this context, vermicompost derived from buffalo manure may represent a sustainable alternative for nutrient management and organic...

Synergistic effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal inoculation and phosphorus fertilization on soil microbial properties, plant physiological characteristics, in chicory–berseem clover intercropping

Addressing climate change and the demand for sustainable food production including forge production, this study investigates the potential of intercropping chicory ( Cichorium intybus L.) and berseem clover ( Trifolium alexandrinum L.) with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and phosphorus fertilizers to en...

Effect of Biofertilizers and Growth Promoting Microorganisms on Productivity and Profitability of Mungbean [(Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] under Mungbean-Wheat Cropping System

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2022 and 2023 at Dr. BRC Agricultural Research Station (ARS), Mandor, Rajasthan, to evaluate the effect of biofertilisers and growth-promoting microorganisms on growth, yield, and profitability of mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek, var. GM-4) under the mungbean–wheat cr...

Effect of Liquid Bio- fertilizers on Enhancing Plant Growth and Development of Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.)

Liquid biofertiliser offers a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilisers for enhancing mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) growth and yield amid increasing global food demand. A field trial was conducted during 2024 and 2025 to determine the effects of seed treatments on early establishment, subsequent vegetative growth,...

Evaluation of natural farming system in capsicum for sustainable plant health management

The indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers has seriously threatened the ecosystem and led to the eradication of beneficial microflora and fauna, besides having adverse effects on human health. Natural farming (NF) offers an environmentally friendly and sustainable approach to address these issues....
