Biofertilizers are substance that contains microbes, which helps in promoting the growth of plants and trees by increasing the supply of essential nutrients to the plants. It comprises living organisms which include mycorrhizal fungi, blue-green algae, and bacteria. Mycorrhizal fungi preferentially withdraw minerals from organic matter for the plant whereas cyanobacteria are characterized by the property of nitrogen fixation.

• Biofertilizers improve the soil texture and yield of plants.
• They do not allow pathogens to flourish.
• They are eco-friendly and cost-effective.
• Biofertilizers protect the environment from pollutants since they are natural fertilizers.
• They destroy many harmful substances present in the soil that can cause plant diseases.
