29. What Are Bio fertilizers (BF)?
Microbial inoculants that are carrier-based preparations
containing beneficial microorganisms in a viable state.
Intended for seed or soil application.
Designed to improve soil fertility in N and P
Provide growth promoter substances.
Protects atmosphere
Reduce 25% of chemical fertilisers
Also reduces the spread of soil borne diseases
31. Microbial inoculants
Artificially multiplied cultures of certain soil organisms
that can improve soil fertility and crop productivity.
Rhizobia were discovered in 1895, followed by the
Azotobacter and then the blue green algae and a
host of other micro-organisms.
Azospirillum and Vesicular-
Arbuscular Micorrhizae
(VAM) are fairy recent discoveries.

35. Uses Of Bio Fertilisers
Enhances soil productivity
Improves physical condition of soil and facilitates supply free air and
water
They take nutrients like Nitrogen from atmosphere or from soil and
supply to the plants
Equalises the physical and chemical characters of soil, thereby
prevents the deficiencies of micro nutrients
Facilitates Unavailable phosphorus is made available to the plant
Required Hormones, vitamins and Enzymes are supplied to plants
Less cost
Bio fertilisers live independently or symbiotic with plants
They facilitate and supply unavailable form of phosphorus to
available form
36. Application of Bio fertilizers
Seed treatment or seed inoculation
Seedling root dip
Main field application through FYM
37. NITROGEN FIXING BACTERIA
These fertilisers take atmospheric
Nitrogen through roots and convert
into nitrates
Example
Azotobacteria is used for the
non legume crops
Rhizobium is needed for the
legume crops
Blue green algae are needed to
grow rice
Acetobacter is used to grow
sugarcane
38. RHIZOBIUM CULTURE
Bacteria that grows in root
nodules of legumes [soya bean,
etc.]
Rhizobium INOCULANTS: Use of
Rhizobium culture in legumes is
most promising.
On average, its use can supply
15-20 kg N/ha to legumes:
increase yield up to 20 per cent.
39. AZOLLA
It absorbs atmospheric
Nitrogen and coverts
to Ammonia and
nitrate form and supply
to plants
Azolla is used as bio
fertilizer for wetland
rice and it is known to
contribute 16-20 kg
N/Acre per rice crop..

42. Classification of Pesticides
Based on nature of Pest.
1 Acaricides- For control of Mites.
2 Algicides - For Destruction of Algae and aquatic
Vegetation.
3 Bactericides- Control of Bacteria.
4 Fungicides – Control of fungi.
5 Herbicides – Control of Weeds.
6 Insecticides – Control of Insects.7 Molluscicides – Control of
Mollusks.
8 Nematocides – Control of Nematodes.
9 Rotendicides – Control of Rats and others.
10. Repellent – Repelling insects.
11.Attractants – Attracting Insects.

58. What are Nematodes
• Nematodes are minute threadlike
worms ,plant nematodes generally live
in the soil in large numbers infesting
roots .Galls and Curling of plant part.
• Rodents – feed and destroy all type of
grains at every stage right from the
field to godown ,warehouse, shops
hotels and home.

59. What are Diseases ?
• When Plants fails to perform its
normal growth and function
resulting in lower yields and poor
quality of produce. Bacteria, Fungi.
• Some disease like symptoms are
also produced by plants due to
deficiency of certain nutrients, Soil
condition and Water Logging
condition.

61. Cowpea Bruchids (Callosobruchus spp.)
Beetles: Weevils, Grain Borers,
Bruchids, Khapra Beetles
The main beetle pests of
storage are Bruchids (e.g.
cowpea seed beetles and
bean Bruchid), grain borers
(e.g. the larger and the lesser
grain borers), weevils (e.g. grain
weevils), flour beetles, Khapra
beetles and dried fruit beetles.
The larvae and some adult
beetles feed in the seeds and
grain, leaving them full of small
holes. Sometimes a fine dust is
found around the holes, being
the excrements of these
beetles. Beetle damage
renders grains and seeds
unsuitable for human and, in
case of heavy attack, even for
animal consumption.
