In the age of sustainable farming and organic practices, VAM (Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhiza) biofertilizer has emerged as a game-changer for enhancing crop productivity while maintaining soil health. At Central Biotech, we are committed to empowering farmers with high-quality, research-backed biofertilizers that bring long-term benefits to agriculture without harming the environment.

What is VAM Biofertilizer?

VAM biofertilizer contains spores of beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi that form a mutualistic association with plant roots. These fungi extend themselves deep into the soil, forming structures called vesicles and arbuscules, which help in efficient nutrient exchange between the plant and the soil. This biological connection significantly increases the plant's ability to absorb phosphorus, zinc, copper, and other micronutrients that are otherwise immobile in soil.

Benefits of VAM Biofertilizer

Improved Nutrient Uptake: VAM increases surface area of the root system, ensuring better absorption of essential minerals.

Enhanced Plant Growth: It stimulates root development, leading to stronger and healthier plants.

Drought Resistance: Helps plants retain water and tolerate moisture stress more effectively.

Soil Enrichment: Improves soil structure, aeration, and microbial activity.

Reduces Chemical Dependency: Minimizes the need for synthetic fertilizers, promoting organic agriculture.

Eco-Friendly & Cost-Effective: Supports sustainable farming practices at a lower cost.

How is VAM Biofertilizer Produced?

At Central Biotech, we adopt a scientifically managed mass multiplication technique under greenhouse conditions. Host plants are grown in sterilized soil and inoculated with AM spores. As the roots get colonized, the spores are harvested and mixed with a quality carrier medium. The result is a potent biofertilizer with high spore count, long shelf life, and proven field performance.

Application Guide for Farmers

Crops: VAM biofertilizer is ideal for cereals, vegetables, pulses, oilseeds, fruit crops, ornamental plants, and more.

Dosage: Apply 2–5 kg per acre, depending on the crop and soil condition.

Application Method:

Mix with compost or farmyard manure.

Apply directly in the root zone during sowing or transplanting.

Ensure moist soil conditions for best fungal colonization.
