Applications of Biofertilizers 

There are mainly three applications of biofertilizers which are commonly used.

1. Seed treatment or Seed inoculation:   

In this method, the nitrogen and phosphorous fertilizers are mixed together in water. Then the seeds are dipped in this mixture and dried with the application of this paste and have to be swon as soon as possible before the seeds get damaged.

2. Soil Treatment:

All the Fertilizers along with the compost fertilizers are mixed together. They are kept for one night. Then the next day this mixture is spread on the soil where the seeds have to be swon.

3. Seedling root dip:

This method is generally applied to rice crop. A bed of water is spread on the land where the crop has to grown. The Seedlings of rice are planted in water and then kept it for eight to ten hours.
