Nodumax Bio-Fertilizer | 100g is a reliable, scientifically validated inoculant that enhances soybean yields, improves soil fertility, and reduces fertilizer costs. With proven adoption and excellent cost-benefit returns, it’s a smart choice for sustainable legume production.
Description
Nodumax Bio-Fertilizer | 100g is a high-potency Rhizobium bacterial inoculant designed to maximize nitrogen fixation in legume crops. It is a new legume inoculation technology developed at the IITA Business Incubation Platform. NoduMax is intended for soybean crops so that they are better able to access nitrogen from the air.
Product Composition & Function:
| Component | Role |
|---|---|
| “Nodu” | Refers to root nodules (where nitrogen fixation occurs). |
| “max” | Indicates high-efficiency strain(s) or multi-strain formulation. |
| 100g | Treats 10–25 kg seeds (small-scale/field trial use). |
Purpose:
Inoculates legume seeds/roots with elite Rhizobium or Bradyrhizobium bacteria → converts atmospheric nitrogen (N₂) into plant-usable ammonia → reduces need for synthetic N fertilizers.
Benefits:
-
Boosts Biological Nitrogen Fixation
-
Enhances root nodulation, enabling legumes (especially soybean) to fix more atmospheric nitrogen, reducing the need for synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.
-
-
Increases Yield
-
Field applications report yield increases of ~30–45%, or an additional ~350–450 kg/ha.
-
-
Cost-effective & Environmentally Friendly
-
Low-cost, safe, and sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers .
-
Method of Application:
Dosage & Method (100g Pack)
| Application | Dosage | Steps |
|---|---|---|
| Seed Treatment | 5g per kg seeds | 1. Mix with adhesive (10% sugar/jaggery water or gum arabic). 2. Coat seeds evenly. 3. Dry in shade → sow within 6 hours. |
| Soil Application | 100g in 40L water/acre | Apply in seed furrows or root zone at planting. |
Critical Notes:
-
Do NOT mix with chemical fungicides/insecticides (applies 24 hrs before/after).
-
Avoid synthetic N fertilizers (urea/DAP kills bacteria).
-
Soil Temp: >15°C for bacterial activity (delay sowing in cold soils).
Target Crops:
-
Pulses: Soybean, chickpea, lentils, beans.
-
Forage Legumes: Alfalfa, clover, vetch.
