BTU-Center constantly monitors the quality of inoculants in accordance with the requirements of ISO-9001, according to which each stage of the product development is monitored and reports are made for each stage. Microbiologists throughout the entire manufacturing process monitor the purity of the culture, its authenticity, because this is the only way to guarantee the product with the strain that was taken from the museum at the beginning. This also makes it possible to maintain a high concentration of microorganisms not only when the product leaves the factory, but also to ensure a high titer on seeds in the field.
Rhizoline® is an inoculant with a high concentration of four strains of the symbiotic bacteria Bradyrhizobium japonicum. The composition is adapted to various soil and climatic conditions, which provides better nitrogen fixation and increased yield, improves the agrochemical and physical parameters of the soil and provides plants with growth-stimulating substances. Treatment is carried out 7 days before sowing when used together with the protector Rizosave®, which is supplied with the inoculant.
