Application of biofertilizers (BFs) is very important for the development of sustainable agriculture. These eco-friendly bioproducts improve soil structure and enhance its fertility and crop productivity. The usage of BFs may reduce or totally exclude the amount of chemical fertilizers, at the same time helps to receive residue free, safe and healthy crops. The application of BFs in hydroponic culture is especially important as soilless production of crops is totally based on the usage of synthetic fertilizers and the replacing them with these environment-friendly substances may be a good alternative. This review article is summarizing studies on application of BFs in soilless conditions. The article includes short information about BFs and hydroponics, the ways of application of BFs, the combined usage with inorganic nutrients, as well as the role on the nitrate accumulation in hydroponic conditions.
