  1. Difference between biofertilizers and chemical fertilizers Fertilizers are food supplements for plants. To increase the soil’s fertility, and improve the yield and the production of nutrient-rich crops, fertilizers are added to the soil. In general, these fertilizers can either be obtained naturally or artificially prepared for enhanced productivity of the yields. These fertilizers are classified into bio-fertilizers and chemical fertilizers based on the composition and type of materials used.

  2. What is a biofertilizer? Biofertilizers mainly comprise plant remains, some unique species of microbes and other organic matter, which contain the essential nutrients required for the growth of the plants. Biofertilizers are environment-friendly, serve as a good source of nutrients, improve the soil texture, destroy disease-causing pathogenic components and also help to retain soil fertility. Overall, biofertilizers serve as a good source of nutrients required for the benefit of plants to improve plant productivity and healthier crops. Acetobacter and Rhizobium are two widely used bio-fertilizers.

  3. What is Chemical Fertilizer? Chemical fertilizers or synthetic fertilizers are added to crops in order to enrich the soil with nutrients such as Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium. This increase the fertility of the soil which leads to healthier, bigger and faster crops.
