Agropages reported: In 2022, Syngenta Group's annual cumulative sales of microbial fertilizers in China will exceed 500,000 tons, a year-on-year increase of 72%, establishing the industry leader in the field of microbial fertilizers in one fell swoop.
Microbial fertilizers are products containing specific living microorganisms, which can increase the supply of plant nutrients or promote plant growth, increase yield, improve the quality of agricultural products and the agricultural ecological environment, and are of great significance to ensuring food security and protecting soil health. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has listed "biological fertilizer" as an important task for breakthroughs in agricultural science and technology, and advocates the research and promotion of agricultural biological products. At present, the total number of microbial fertilizer enterprises in my country is more than 3,000, with an annual output of about 30 million tons.
Relying on a national scientific research platform, Syngenta Group China uses microbial agents as a carrier to open up the interaction effect between "biological fertilizer-soil health-nutrient efficiency", forming agricultural microbial agents, bio-organic fertilizers, and biological compound fertilizers , bio-organic and inorganic fertilizers, microbial soil improvement products and other five series of products.
In recent years, 15 provinces, 18 kinds of crops and more than 300 field tests have shown that the microbial fertilizer products developed and promoted by the company can increase the yield of crops by more than 7% compared with other nutrient fertilizer products, and are disease-resistant, quality-improved, and resistant to diseases. The reverse effect is obvious, soil biodiversity has been greatly improved, weight loss and efficiency have been significantly increased, carbon emissions have been reduced, and the pressure on the environment caused by traditional fertilizers has been effectively reduced.
