What’s the application of probiotics on agriculture?
There can be 3 objectives for probiotics applications:
i. To facilitate the nutrition uptake, ex. Trichoderma, mycorrhizal fungi, and phosphate solubilizing bacteria.
ii. For biological pest control, lower the usage of chemical pesticide, ex. B. thuringiensis, M. anisopliae, and Beauveria.
iii. To produce antibiotics as biological pesticide, ex. B. subtilis and B. amyloliquefaciens.
