In the context of climate change, agriculture faces complex and unique problems. Crop production is directly dependent on natural resources, weather, and climatic conditions. As a result of rising temperatures, variable rainfalls, invasive pests, and more, the sector, farmers, and farm communities are facing several challenges. These effects tend to worsen as climate change accelerates, making it critical to implement mitigation strategies as soon as possible to curb its long-term impacts.

Biofertilizers refer to the latent or living cells of effective strains of micro-organisms, which help plants grow by associating with them in the rhizosphere when the seeds are sown into the soil. It increases the supply of nutrients to the soil by the processes of nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, release of phytohormones, and more, which facilitates the availability of the nutrients required for the plants to grow, increases plant’s capacity to absorb nutrients, and increases biomass. When used efficiently in agriculture, they offer a healthy environment that lasts for future growing seasons.
