Studies on organic acid based biotech nutrients to enhance Soil organic carbon (SOC) and grain yield in Maize (Zea Mays) crop
Journal Title: International Journal of Science Engineering and Advance Technology - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
Maize (Zea mays) is one of the staple foods in many third world nations. Its production has increased over years as people change their consumption trends. Maize has evolved from a purely substance to a successful commercial crops. Maize is sold mainly for food in schools, relief by World Food programme (WFP). Maize Production has improved with the adoption of innovative technologies in farmer fields. These technologies include Organic acid based biotech formulations, Integrated nutrient management, improved seeds like hybrid and Longe varieties, timely planting, proper spacing and timely harvesting. Organic farming enhances soil carbon and its benefits (Hepperly, 2007).Adoption of Organic farming practices and usage of Lactogluconate based organic manures, vegetable protein and sea-weed based amino-acids, gluconic acid and lactic acid formulations enhanced the soil fertility, soil organic carbon (SOC) and increase in grain yield in Maize crop. As all these products are made from natural ingredients with microbial actions through fermentation, the formulations are ideal substitutes of inorganic nutrients in organic farming.
