Abstract

In the world Human population is increase day by day and due to that big issue create in food security for each people who living this World. The available of land for agriculture purpose is limited and it’s reducing with time by time. We need to develop agriculture practice which increases the productivity of food and other product to meet the large demand of the population growth. Currently application of chemical fertilizer and pesticide for increase the crop production but its cause negative impact on environmental, human health and soil ecology, so it can need to develop new tools as biofertilizer which can reduce the adverse effect on soil ecology and environment. Microbes as biofertilizer contains Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs), endo- and ectomycorrhizal fungi, cyanobacteria and many other useful microscopic organisms led to improve nutrient uptake, plant growth and provide tolerance against abiotic and biotic stress. Biofertilizer is an alternative option for chemical fertilizer and chemical pesticides application in soil.

Keywords: Chemical fertilizer, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), Biofertilizer, Microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs), Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF).
