Micro Bio Active Technology
MICRO BIO ACTIVE represents a complex (consortium) with a high concentration of Probiotic microorganisms: PGPR bacteria and fungi. They promote the release of phytohormones such as auxins in the rhizosphere and stimulate multiplication, cell relaxation and root development; they also increase the availability of nutrients in the soil, in particular Phosphorus and trace elements (Iron, Manganese, Zinc, etc.).
Micro-organisms act by producing a pool of enzymes useful to the plant, stimulating its endogenous defences. One of the most common ways micro-organisms improve nutrient uptake is by altering plant hormone levels. This mechanism modifies the root architecture: the mass, branching and quantity of root hairs increase; there is also an increase in the volume of the root system and consequently the uptake of water and nutrients improves.
Micro-organisms stimulate plant development by creating in the rhizosphere (the part of the soil closest to the roots), optimal conditions (such as pH neutralisation) for the plant to assimilate the nutrients it needs more quickly. Some of them are capable of making insoluble phosphorus and unavailable iron available again (siderophores).
Also, of fundamental importance are the inhibitory actions of development and competition for space and nutrients against many pathogenic fungal species.
In essence, microorganisms have three very interesting properties and can be used as: bio-fertilisers, bio-stimulants, bio-protectors.
