Sustainable agricultural practices are widely accepted as an alternative to the use of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. As the main agents for breaking down organic material and recycling nutrients, microorganisms interact with plants at the root level, and in turn, influence growth and nutrition of the entire plant.
Plants are further affected by other variables such as temperature, moisture, and most importantly, pathogens.
Pathogens cause serious diseases in plants resulting in yield loss. Fungal diseases that are soil borne are evolving ad becoming more resistant to the fungicides currently being used, fueling the need for alternatives.
A natural and environmentally friendly option is to apply a microbial supplement of scientifically selected microorganisms that will colonize the plant roots and displace the pathogens.
