About Acetobacter
How it works
An endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacterium (Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus) best known for living inside sugarcane tissue, where it supplies nitrogen from within the plant.
Biofertilisers work best in soil with organic matter, moisture and a near-neutral pH. They add to, rather than replace, a balanced fertilizer programme, and they take time to establish, so apply them early in the crop.
Application methods
- Seed treatment before sowing
- Seedling root dip before transplanting
- Soil application mixed with compost or farmyard manure
- Drip application (liquid forms)
Handling
- Store cool and shaded, away from sunlight
- Keep apart from chemical fungicides and bactericides
- Use within the printed shelf life
Results vary with crop, soil, weather and practice. Follow the label, run a small trial first and scale what works on your farm. Nothing on this page is a guarantee of yield.
