Improve the shelf life of the bio fertilizer and it should be potent. With this one would realize the difference for the bio fertilizers use in crop production process.

Dear K. Damodara Chari,

Please have look at these useful links.

Good luck!

You can improve agricultural soil by green algae or bacteria, which stimulates the growth and dissemination of awareness by using it to improve the construction of soil and the growth of agricultural crops. Besides its benefits, it reduces the use of mineral fertilizer, it is a friend of the environment

• Professor Jayashankar

From the results of research in Egypt we have reached the use of fresh green algae and added it With water irrigation in the soil at least two times three times a month with the use of 50% of the mineral fertilizer The continuous use of green algae will increase the number of microorganisms in the soil, improve growth and increase production

We can improve acceptance/improve usases of Bio fertilizers by Large scale demonstrations.

Acceptance to consumption of Bio-fertilizer in India will be improved only through efficient combinations of isolates which should give reproducible and sustained results in the farmer's fields

Improve the shelf life of the bio fertilizer and it should be potent. With this one would realize the difference for the bio fertilizers use in crop production process.

The best way we have seen is by demonstration. Let a few farmers in a village take it up first and let the results speak for themselves. Others will automatically follow. There is such a significant improvement over time, it has to be experienced, cannot be described in words.

I don't know of the local conditions in India but what has worked in many agricultural climates globally especially among local territories is education, wide publicity and sensitization on the efficient use of the biofertilizers among farmers.

Educate them first.

By extension works.

Teach them . What, Hows

First and foremost there is a need to demonstrate by on farm strip trials. Secondly teach the practical application for on farm use. Thirdly give a background on the comparative economics and the return on investment. Finally, discuss the issues related to environmental and health impacts. The presentation should be the language of the users and pictorial and hands on teaching with a learning by doing application and demonstration.

Farmers everywhere need to be persuaded to use the biofertilizer stuff. You have to bring positive results somewhere else confirming the real increase in productivity. You can support your work by pictures that can drag them to use.

Also open a discussion with them about the negative use of chemical fertilizer and how badly affects environment and ground water.

For us we use dry yeast to enlarge the plant cells and that certainly gives a high productivity.

You can bring an example Also relating to mycorrhizal fungi spores and their benefits in the saline and compacted soil .

All these examples might change their mind to use the biofertilizer stuff.

We can improve farmers' acceptance of the use of bio-fertilizers by using experimental fields in agricultural areas, allowing farmers to see how to use them efficiently, as well as field comparisons between traditional and other biomass fertilizers and noting the difference in production between the two methods.

Indian farmers were accustomed to use cow dung, ash and vegetable waste mixed compost and burying of water hyacinth as fertilizer previously.

But with introduction of inorganic fertilizers, they were shifted from their habit.

They can be easily trained for use of any organic fertilizer, if properly trained and convinced.

Thanks.

We need to demonstrate the improvement to soil health as soon in the process as possible. Our microBIOMETER test shows the microbial response to changes like that induces by biofertilizers in less than a month. It also shows how chemical fertilizers kills the microbes. The test is ~$10, takes 10 minutes and the microbial biomass is estimated by cell phone and the result stored in the cloud. See it at www.microbiometer.com.

Do extension work, impart on hand training to the farmers and demonstrate the practical application and benifits of bioferilizers for awarness of farmers. To minimize the labor cost apply Bioferilizer through irrigation.

Using the "school field" system. ie To carry out a test with the biofertilizers in a plot of the field of the farmer, and to ask the farmer to cultivate in another parcel of his field the same plant with his usual system. At harvest, he will be able to compare his method of production with that using biofertilizers. It is an vulgarizatio method that almost always operates.

I use comments. Thanks

With the best wishes

Firstly invite to farmers and organize the training on biofertilizers. If possible, some demonstration on biofertilizers may be distribute to farmers.

The best thing is to motivate farmers by actual field demonstration so that they may seek to apply it in their own field.

Training teaching and demonstrate need to be followed by economic analysis to help farmers understand there is an economic basis and opportunity related to their investment. Farming is a business and a bottomline calculation on return from investment is very necessary. While researchers are critical and extensionist much needed in the last analysis the testimony of respected influential farmers will be pivotable for the technology having acceptance. The Research and Extension community need to work to identify the influential lead farmers who can help both demonstrate and testify in terms and ways the farmers can align with.

Firstly, we will have to increase the self live of biofertilizer, because the time between production to hands to farmers is more ;therefore, reduction in their efficiency. And more likely farmer store them (biofertilizer) for nest year therefore proper knowledge should be disseminate through extension worker to the farmer in proper way. Another way is to motivate the farmer for organic farming so that biofertilizer worked properly; because, need of optimum organic matter for optimum functioning of biofertilizer.
