[QUOTE="Natallia @PlantWorks, post: 7788272, member: 143783"] Generally, the environment that is ideal for plants is ideal for microbes like bacteria. Unsurprisingly considering the long discovered symbiotic relationship between plants and these rhizobia, which is the basis of bioinoculants technology. It is known that bacteria are adaptable, and able to and thrive under harsh environmental conditions by developing various means to tolerate extreme changes. Therefore, bacteria have great potential to help the plants thrive in typical agricultural soil pH and temperature conditions. This also includes hypoxic conditions in the water logging scenario or under drought conditions when plants usually struggle to overcome. Speedy establishment of these bacterial inoculants is critical to the successful deployment, ideally applied at soil temperatures around 12 degrees C, with simple sugars and amino acids to feed on supplied within an accompanying Biostimulant. A period of rain post application is helping to drive the bacteria to the crop's root zone, especially when there is already enough roots ready to receive and feed them When the bioinoculant products are water dispersible, uniform application to the soil using a farm sprayer is easily achieved, especially when the suspension is constantly agitated during the application. We have shown this consistently with a coarse droplet setting. Regarding the possible effects, pesticides have on the bacterial inoculants, R&D looking at the impact of common herbicides and fungicides, especially ones applied in spring, on the survival of the bacteria at PlantWorks has shown not to affect the bacteria adversely. We continue to research tank mixes with our bacteria, and we will update our recommendations presently. There have been a limited number of studies looking into the effects of different forms of N-fertilisers on PGPR performances. Lowering the dose of N application around the time of bacterial inoculation ensures the plants and microbes have enough N for growth but not too much to hinder plant/microbe symbiosis establishment.
