Use of a composition of trichoderma and lignin fraction as a booster of nitrogen fertilizers

Abstract

A method is shown for making, using, and applying a composition including a fungus of Trichoderma genus and a lignin fraction as a booster of nitrogen fertilizers. In particular, it was observed that methods of applying nitrogen fertilizers that include such a composition surprisingly enhances the uptake of nitrogen by plant seeds so that the overall amount of the fertilizer to be applied can be advantageously reduced down to at least 50% of the recommended amount. An agro-chemical kit is shown that includes a fungus of Trichoderma genus in a first container, and a lignan fraction and a nitrogen-containing fertilizer in either separate second and third containers or in a single second container.
