Organic Farming will save us all (cont.)


The success of a biofertilizer heavily depends on how long the strain in the ground will live.

How long this strain lives in tough climate conditions should be closely examined and considered a critical step in figuring out how good it is. How the strain resists under different conditions if the key to finding out it's potential.

Not only the strain selection but also the microbial fermentation process technology involved in product development is a very tricky process. Moreover, the fermentation parameters vary from one microorganism to another. Here is difference in the parameter when microorganisms grow in a shake flask and a fermenter. For large-scale production, development of new products, process optimization and training of manpower is a necessity for establishment of an R & TD and Pilot Fermentation Facility. Such a facility is proposed to establish in Russia with state-of-the-art infrastructure consisting of sophisticated precision instruments and well qualified technical personnel.

The microbial product as soil bioinoculant will be developed to provide the customized solution. The customization means that the product will be developed by the native microorganisms population isolated from the region where these products has to be applied. Moreover, the selection and composition of the product will also be customized. The product is developed as per local need and problem specific for example if there is a particular problem at a particular region, the composition of the product will be changed as per the need of aspiration. The other point to be taken care of during development is “single microbial product will be applicable to wide range of crops and also contains multifarious activity”.
