Uso de microorganismos efectivos, en el manejo agronómico de hortalizas

It is necessary to highlight that efficient microorganism reestablish the microbiological balance of the soil, improving its physical-chemical condition, as well as increasing the protection and yields of crops, conserving natural resources, the soil and the environment, developing a sustainable and sustainable agriculture. Microorganisms live naturally in the soil (bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes) and perform multiple functions, especially degrading and/or transforming various materials so that they can be used for plant nutrition. ME does not replace other driving methods. It is a complementary tool for optimizing best crop and soil management practices, such as crop rotation, organic fertilization, conservation tillage, residue management, and biological pest control. According to what has been analyzed, it has been determined that efficient microorganisms have many benefits in the agricultural field, because they promote seed germination, increase flowering and increase fruit growth, guaranteeing good yields and, in turn, improving the soil structure, helping their chemical fertility, eliminating pathogenic agents that cause diseases in plants; They also promote the absorption of water and nutrients in plants, helping their photosynthetic activity, improving horticultural crops. The importance of applying efficient microorganisms in vegetables is because they produce effects such as increased plant size, increased number of flowers, leaf area and root weight, achieving a positive effect on their phenology, biomass and yield.
