Biofertilizers

Types of Bio Fertilizers

1) Nitrogen fixing Biofertilizers

2) Sulpher oxidising Biofertilizers.

3) Phosphorus solubilizing biofertilizers.

0The Rhizobium legume association can fix upto 100-300 kg Nha is one crop season.

0The azolla (Anabena azollae) with algae fix up 100-150 kg. N/ha/yr.

0Symbiotic N fixing:

i) Rhizobium

ii) Azolla

0 Non Symbiotic N Fixation: Fixation of atomsphericN by free living microorganisms is known as non
symbiotic N Fixation.l

i) Anaerobic: Anaerobic species which fix N under genera Clostridium, Chlorobium etc.

ii) Aerobic: e g. Azotbactorfix N @ 3-15 kg N/ha/yr.

IMzotobacter chrococcum in natural to alkaline soil.

IMzotobacter agillis is an quatic species

Mzotobacter beijerinkia found in tropical soil, acidic soil.

0 Blue green algae (BGA) :

fix N, its application rate is 10 kg I ha in rice field.

0 Mycorhizae: It is symbiotic association of fungi with roots of vascular plants.

0Vasicular arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM) :

Have been observed in fruit crops like citrus, Pal with beneifical effects.

Mzospirillum:

Maize, Oat, Barly, Sorghum, Pearl Millet and Forage crops.

■ Antibiotics^

Some plant cells have systematic infection of micro organisms. To prevent the growth of these
microbes it is essential to enrich the media with antibiotics

Eg: -Streptomycin or Kanamycin at low concentration effectively controls systemic infection and do
inhibit the growth of cell cultures

■ Growth regulators^ These include ,auxins, cytokinins, gibberillins, ABA. Ethylene

The growth differentiation and organogenesis of tissue occurs only on the addition of one (or) more
of these hormones to the medium.

1) ) Auxins

Auxins have the property of cell division, cell elongation, elongation of stem, internodes, tropism,
Apical dominance abscission and rooting

■ commonly used auxins are

IAA (Indole 3-Acetic Acid)

IBA (Indole 3-Butyric Acid)

2,4-D (Dichloro Phenoxy Acetic Acid)

NAA (Naphthylene Acitic Acid)

NOA (Naphthoxy Acitic Acid)

The 2,4-D is used for callus induction where as the other auxins are used tor root induction.

2) Cytokinins

Cytokinins are adenine derivaties which are mainly concerned with cell division modification of
apical dominance, and shoot differentiation in tissue culture.

Cytokinins have been shown to activate RNA synthesis and to stimulate protein and the enzymatic
activity in certain tissues

•Commonly used Cytokinins are

BAP (6-Benzylamino purine)

BA (Benzy adenine)

2ip (Isopentyl adenine)

Kinetine (6-furfur aminopurine)

Zeatin (4-hydroxy 3 methyl trans 2 butinyl aminopurine)

3)) Gibberillins and Abscisic acid

GA3 is most common gibberillin used in tissue culture.

It promotes the growth (f the cell culture at low density.

Enhances callus growth and simulates the elongation of dwarf or stunted plantlets formation from
adventive embryos formed in culture.

4 ) ABA

ABA in culture medium either stimulates or inhibits culture growth depending on species.

It is most commonly used in plant tissue culture to promote distinct developmental pathways such
as somatic embryogenesis.

India produces 163.7 million tonne milk in 2016-17 worth over Rs.4 lakh crore: Shri Radha Mohan
Singh

Rs.67 crore allocated to Bihar under Rashtriya Gokul Mission: Shri Singh

Shri Radha Mohan Singh addresses Pashu Arogya Mela in Motihari

Union Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Shri Radha Mohan Singh said that India is emerging
as a leader among the milk-producing nations and added that in 2016-17, 163.7 million tonne milk
was produced in the country, which is worth over Rs.4 lakh crore. Shri Singh said it today at the
Pashu Arogya Mela in Semwapur, Motihari.

Agriculture Minister said that in 2015-16 total milk production in Bihar was 8.29 million metric
tonne, which was 5.33% of the whole country. Bihar has 6.67% of the country's total cattle
population. Therefore, there is a need to increase milk production and productivity in the state. Shri
Singh said that Comfed/Sudha are playing important roles in collection, processing, and marketing of
milk in Bihar. Shri Singh said dairy farming has been a traditional source of livelihood and it has a
deep connection with the agricultural economy. At present, there are 19 crore cattle in the country,
which amounts to 14% of the total cattle population of the world. Out of them,15.1 crores are
Indigenous cattle, which is 80 % of the total cattle population. The country's dairy cooperatives
provide an average of 75 to 80 percent of its sales to the farmers. In Bihar, Comfed/Sudha are
providing an appropriate value of the milk to the farmers through cooperative agencies. In
comparison to 15 million men, 75 million women are engaged in this field.

The Minister said that India has 30 crore bovines, which is 18% of the total bovine population of the
world. The country's indigenous bovine is the result of traditional and scientific knowledge and
hardwork of hundred years. Today, we have 40 breeds of cattle along with Yak and Mithun and 13
breeds of buffaloes.

Shri Singh said that indigenous animals are more suitable for the country, particularly suitable for
climate and environment of their reproductive areas. Mainly so, Indigenous breeds are least affected
due to climate change.

Shri Singh said, Bachaur is the indigenous cattle breed of Bihar. There is 6.73 lakh Bachaur cattle
breed in the region, out of which 2.99 lakh are reproductive animals. He said that there is a huge
possibility of increasing productivity of Indigenous breeds in the country through commercial farm
management and balanced nutrition. For the first time, the government has initiated Rashtriya
Gokul Mission with an objective to conserve and propagate indigenous breeds in an organized and
scientific manner. Till now Rs.1,077 crore has been sanctioned for the proposals received from 27
states under the scheme. And so far, Rs.499.08 crore has been released under this scheme.

Shri Singh said, Rs.67 crore has been allocated to Bihar under Rashtriya Gokul Mission. And so far,
Rs.22.5 crore has been sanctioned for the implementation of this scheme. This scheme will help in
increasing milk production and milk productivity in the region. Under this programme, 1250 MAITRI
centres are being set up to facilitate artificial insemination for cattle on the doorstep. This will also
give a new direction to the conservation of the indigenous breeds. Along with other components,
setting up of Gokul Gram is also included under Rashtriya Gokul Mission. One Gokul Gram will have
500 animals with high genetic quality, out of which 300 will be reproductive animals. The Gokul
Grams will rear Lal Sindhi, Sahiwal and Gir breeds along with Bachaur.

0The Rhizobium legume association can fix upto 100-300 kg Nha is one crop season.

0The azolla (Anabena azollae) with algae fix up 100-150 kg. N/ha/yr.

0Symbiotic N fixing:

i) Rhizobium

ii) Azolla

0Non Symbiotic N Fixation: Fixation of atomsphericN by free living microorganisms is known as non
symbiotic N Fixation.l

i) Anaerobic: Anaerobic species which fix N under genera Clostridium, Chlorobium etc.

ii) Aerobic: e g. Azotbactorfix N @ 3-15 kg N/ha/yr.

IMzotobacter chrococcum in natural to alkaline soil.

■ Antibiotics^

Some plant cells have systematic infection of micro organisms. To prevent the growth of these
microbes it is essential to enrich the media with antibiotics

Eg: -Streptomycin or Kanamycin at low concentration effectively controls systemic infection and do
inhibit the growth of cell cultures

■ Growth regulators^ These include ,auxins, cytokinins, gibberillins, ABA. Ethylene

The growth differentiation and organogenesis of tissue occurs only on the addition of one (or) more
of these hormones to the medium.

1) ) Auxins

Auxins have the property of cell division, cell elongation, elongation of stem, internodes, tropism,
Apical dominance abscission and rooting

■ commonly used auxins are

IAA (Indole 3-Acetic Acid)

IBA (Indole 3-Butyric Acid)

2,4-D (Dichloro Phenoxy Acetic Acid)

NAA (Naphthylene Acitic Acid)

NOA (Naphthoxy Acitic Acid)

The 2,4-D is used for callus induction where as the other auxins are used tor root induction.

2) Cytokinins

Cytokinins are adenine derivaties which are mainly concerned with cell division modification of
apical dominance, and shoot differentiation in tissue culture.
Cytokinins have been shown to activate RNA synthesis and to stimulate protein and the enzymatic
activity in certain tissues

•Commonly used Cytokinins are

BAP (6-Benzylamino purine)

BA (Benzy adenine)

2ip (Isopentyl adenine)

Kinetine (6-furfur aminopurine)

Zeatin (4-hydroxy 3 methyl trans 2 butinyl aminopurine)

3) ) Gibberillins and Abscisic acid

GA3 is most common gibberillin used in tissue culture.

It promotes the growth (f the cell culture at low density.

Enhances callus growth and simulates the elongation of dwarf or stunted plantlets formation from
adventive embryos formed in culture.

4 ) ABA

ABA in culture medium either stimulates or inhibits culture growth depending on species.

It is most commonly used in plant tissue culture to promote distinct developmental pathways such
as somatic embryogenesis.

India produces 163.7 million tonne milk in 2016-17 worth over Rs.4 lakh crore: Shri Radha Mohan
Singh

Rs.67 crore allocated to Bihar under Rashtriya Gokul Mission: Shri Singh

Shri Radha Mohan Singh addresses Pashu Arogya Mela in Motihari

Union Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Shri Radha Mohan Singh said that India is emerging
as a leader among the milk-producing nations and added that in 2016-17, 163.7 million tonne milk
was produced in the country, which is worth over Rs.4 lakh crore. Shri Singh said it today at the
Pashu Arogya Mela in Semwapur, Motihari.

Agriculture Minister said that in 2015-16 total milk production in Bihar was 8.29 million metric
tonne, which was 5.33% of the whole country. Bihar has 6.67% of the country's total cattle
population. Therefore, there is a need to increase milk production and productivity in the state. Shri
Singh said that Comfed/Sudha are playing important roles in collection, processing, and marketing of
milk in Bihar. Shri Singh said dairy farming has been a traditional source of livelihood and it has a
deep connection with the agricultural economy. At present, there are 19 crore cattle in the country,
which amounts to 14% of the total cattle population of the world. Out of them,15.1 crores are
Indigenous cattle, which is 80 % of the total cattle population. The country's dairy cooperatives
provide an average of 75 to 80 percent of its sales to the farmers. In Bihar, Comfed/Sudha are
providing an appropriate value of the milk to the farmers through cooperative agencies. In
comparison to 15 million men, 75 million women are engaged in this field.
The Minister said that India has 30 crore bovines, which is 18% of the total bovine population of the
world. The country's indigenous bovine is the result of traditional and scientific knowledge and
hardwork of hundred years. Today, we have 40 breeds of cattle along with Yak and Mithun and 13
breeds of buffaloes.

Shri Singh said that indigenous animals are more suitable for the country, particularly suitable for
climate and environment of their reproductive areas. Mainly so, Indigenous breeds are least affected
due to climate change.

Shri Singh said, Bachaur is the indigenous cattle breed of Bihar. There is 6.73 lakh Bachaur cattle
breed in the region, out of which 2.99 lakh are reproductive animals. He said that there is a huge
possibility of increasing productivity of Indigenous breeds in the country through commercial farm
management and balanced nutrition. For the first time, the government has initiated Rashtriya
Gokul Mission with an objective to conserve and propagate indigenous breeds in an organized and
scientific manner. Till now Rs.1,077 crore has been sanctioned for the proposals received from 27
states under the scheme. And so far, Rs.499.08 crore has been released under this scheme.

Shri Singh said, Rs.67 crore has been allocated to Bihar under Rashtriya Gokul Mission. And so far,
Rs.22.5 crore has been sanctioned for the implementation of this scheme. This scheme will help in
increasing milk production and milk productivity in the region. Under this programme, 1250 MAITRI
centres are being set up to facilitate artificial insemination for cattle on the doorstep. This will also
give a new direction to the conservation of the indigenous breeds. Along with other components,
setting up of Gokul Gram is also included under Rashtriya Gokul Mission. One Gokul Gram will have
500 animals with high genetic quality, out of which 300 will be reproductive animals. The Gokul
Grams will rear Lal Sindhi, Sahiwal and Gir breeds along with Bachaur.
