About Organic Carbon
Organic Carbon (Organic Carbon 32% dry basis) by Arihant Bioscience is an organic fertilizer enriched with Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) used for boosting soil fertility and nutrient absorption in all crops. It effectively strengthens root systems, promotes root elongation, and improves iron availability and plant metabolism, while aiding nitrogen fixation and phosphate/potassium solubilization. By enhancing soil microbial activity and plant immunity as a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers, it helps crops become healthier, more resilient, and higher-yielding. It works through soil and root-zone absorption and is suitable for fertigation, seed treatment, root dipping, soil application, and drip irrigation in recommended crops.

Mode of Action: PGPR colonizes the root zone to aid nitrogen fixation and solubilize phosphate and potassium, while enzymatically treated organic components, amino acids, and natural plant hormones (auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, ethylene, abscisic acid) drive root elongation, nutrient assimilation, and plant metabolism. Beta glucan present in the formulation further boosts plant immunity and strengthens root and shoot cell walls.
