Why Maize ?
12. • Phosphorus (P) is rapidly immobilized by soil particles, creating an urgent need for sustainable
phosphorus utilization and solubilization. The application of chemical fertilizers can result in
adverse environmental effects. Nonetheless, utilizing phosphate-solubilizing bacteria may provide
a promising resolution to these challenges.
• An alternative, effective solution to tackle this problem is the integration of phosphate-solubilizing
bacteria, rock phosphate, and vermicompost.
• This study's outcomes will provide valuable information on the role of phosphate-solubilizing
bacteria, rock phosphate, and vermicompost in enhancing maize growth.
