PGPR Our customised microbes or Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) are a group of beneficial bacteria that live in the soil, specifically around the roots of plants. They have wide ranging benefits that can significantly enhance the growth, health and resilience of your crops. PGPR are an invaluable tool for farmers looking to improve plant nutrition, enhance disease resistance, and bolster their crops’ ability to handle environmental stresses. By integrating PGPR into your farming practices, you can cultivate healthier, more resilient plants that deliver better yields, all while reducing your dependency on synthetic inputs. These bacteria may be small, but their impact on your farm can be huge. PGPR as a Natural FertiliserA key feature of many PGPR is the ability to fix nitrogen form the air and convert it into a for that plants can use. Reducing reliance on synthetic fertilisers and increasing the sustainability of your farm. Plant Growth and Root Developmentin our collection we have PGPR that stimulate plant growth via the production of plant hormones. Promoting faster growth and stronger root systems, increasing nutrient uptake and plant stability. Disease DefencePGPR also play a crucial role in reducing abiotic stress from drought, salinity and extreme temperatures. They do this by breaking down a precursor of ethylene, a plant stress hormone and through this reduction in ethylene PGPR help to de-stress making them more resilient to harsh environmental conditions.
