Dr Bacto's COMBO (NPK Microbial consortia) is a microbial formulation of selective strains of multiple bacteria which are able to synthesize/assimilate atmospheric nitrogen, solubilize phosphate and mobilize potash into an available form, thereby supplementing balanced nutrition to the crops.

It converts non-available forms of some complex bonded micronutrients into available forms.

Mode of Action: Azotobacter spp. in this formulation increase nitrogen uptake, and produce plant growth hormones (IAA, GA), and vitamin enhancement in uptake NO3, NH4, H2PO4, K and Fe. Azospirillum is an associative microaerobic nitrogen fixer. This bacterium induces the plant foods to secrete mucilage which aerates a low-oxygen environment and helps to fix atmospheric nitrogen.

PSB possess the activity to solubilize the Phosphorous by secreting organic acids (Gluconic acid, formic acid, Glutamic acid, Lactic acid, Citrate, and Malic acid) to lower soil pH and turns unavailable forms of soil phosphate to available form.

KMB to mobilize potash available in the soil of the plant activates the numerous enzymes system involved in the formation of organic substances and protein compounds.

Benefits: Increase utilization of atmospheric nitrogen. Solubilizes the unavailable form of phosphate and makes it available to the plants. Mobilize the fix and left potash in the soil and make it available to the plants.

It will increase plant drought tolerance under drought conditions. Increase 20-30% yield and quality of the produce Improve physical and chemical properties of soil and improves the nutrient and water holding capacity.

Reduces disease infestation up to some extent. Cost saving and reducing the dosage of N.P.K fertilizers. Improves the colour, appearance and shelf life of perishable fruits & vegetable

Dose: Mix or dilute 2 litres Dr Bacto's Combo per acre in 200 litre of water and apply in the field through drip irrigation.
