Abstract

Biofertilizers are products containing living microorganisms having the ability to convert nutritionally important elements from unavailable to available form and enhance the plant growth through biological processes. The book chapter summarized the research, development, application, and regulatory requirements of biofertilizer in Vietnam and contains the results of isolation of nitrogen-fixing (Rhizobium, Azotobacter, Azospirillum), phosphate-solubilizing (Bacillus), and pathogen-antagonistic (Bacillus, Pseudomonas) microorganism, the evaluation of their biological activities, the effect on the growth, the yield of crops, and the economical effects to the crop production. Briefly informations about the regulatory requirement of biofertilizer in Vietnam are also included in the paper.
