Katyayani Acetogen | Acetobacter Nitrogen Fixing Bio fertilizer

Katyayani Acetogen is a nitrogen-fixing biofertilizer that converts free nitrogen from the air into ammonia, providing plants with essential nitrogen naturally, without the need for artificial fertilizers. This liquid solution has a recommended CFU of 5×10⁸, offering a more effective and longer-lasting alternative compared to powder forms of Acetobacter. It is recommended for organic farming by NPOP and is suitable for organic plantations and export purposes.

Target Crops:

• Sugarcane
• Sweet sorghum
• Sweet corn
• Home garden
• Kitchen/terrace garden
• Nursery
• Greenhouse
• Various agricultural crops

Benefits:

• Reduces the need for nitrogen-based chemical fertilizers
• Promotes root proliferation and increases the number of rootlets
• Enhances nutrient uptake from the rhizosphere
• Cost-effective and eco-friendly
• Recommended for organic cultivation

Dosage:

• Domestic use: 10 ml per litre of water
• Agricultural use: 1–2 litres per acre
• Soil application: Mix 1–2 litres with 25–50 kg of well-rotted FYM/compost/vermicompost and apply per acre
• Sugarcane set treatment: Mix 1000 ml in 100 litres of water and dip sugarcane sets for 15–20 minutes before planting
• Drip irrigation: Mix 1 litre in 200 litres of water and apply per acre

Mode of Action:

• Acetobacter spp. is an obligate aerobic nitrogen-fixing bacterium that fixes nitrogen in the roots, stems, and leaves of plants
• Produces growth-promoting substances such as Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) and Gibberellic Acid (GA), which promote root proliferation and increase rootlets
• Enhances uptake of minerals, phosphate solubilization, and water, improving plant growth and sugar recovery in crops like sugarcane
• Forms a symbiotic relationship with plants like sugarcane and coffee, colonizing their internal tissues to support growth
