Abstract
A biological product for actively producing nitrogen and phosphate enrichment of soil comprising a nitrogen-fixing effective amount of Azospirillum sp. M32, an amount of Bacillus polymixa M7 sufficient to produce polymyxin, an anti-microbial peptide active against Gram negative bacteria which converts phosphorous materials fixed in the soil to which it is applied to a phosphate in plant-available forms, and a nutrient for the bacteria comprising a cellulosic material containing cellulose as an integral component selected from the group consisting of straw, xylan, hemicellulose and lignin, as well as other organic carbon or nitrogen materials.
