Uses of Calcined Granules in Bio-Fertilizers and Pesticides

Biofertilizers are essential tools to supplement agricultural produce. They act as an eco-friendly and renewable means for plant nutrients. Biofertilizers can transform nutritional elements from non-usable to highly assimilable. The process happens without any effect on plants or nature. Pesticides, on the other hand, are ideal for keeping away all sorts of pests from plants.

Crop productivity and soil fertility also remain high, leading to sustainable farming. Usage of calcined granules in biofertilizers and pesticides further helps this process. In this article, we take a look at how that happens.

Benefits of biofertilizers and pesticides

Here are some benefits of using biofertilizers and pesticides.

  • Increases crop yield in a cost-effective way

Besides components like montmorillonite, bentonite also contains a range of other minerals and micronutrients. Bentonite granules act as an excellent soil conditioner and help to improve the structure and fertility of the soil.

Bentonite granules help improve nutrient retention, availability  and cation exchange capacity. It leads to enhanced crop productivity as fertilizers get used efficiently. The soil moisture content also gets better with calcium bentonite clay. It is helpful in the case of sandy soil to improve its moisture status.The water-holding ability of the soil also gets improved through bentonite clay. Plants get access to nutrients from fertilizers and other sources much better.

Bottom line
Calcined granules in biofertilizers and pesticides are beneficial in several ways. They help in sustained retard  delivery of bio fertilisers/ pesticide technicals to help in the crop productivity. They improve the water absorption and nutrient retention capabilities of the soil. All of this leads to better crop yield.
