Biopesticides and biofertilizers are the natural, environmentally friendly alternative to chemical pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. Biofertilizers can make better soil condition, healthier plants growth, and enhance sustainable environment. By the late March 2019, there are 33 biofertilizer licensed products. The products’ functions include phosphate solubilizing, potassium solubilizing and root function reinforcement in the soil (Table 1).
