A Review on Organic Manure and Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria’s Use in Horticultural Crops

The sustainable and eco-friendly management of horticulture crops has become increasingly imperative in contemporary agricultural practices. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the synergistic utilization of organic manure and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) to enhance the growth, yield, and overall health of horticulture crops. Organic manures, derived from natural sources such as compost, animal manure, and green manure, offer a sustainable alternative to synthetic fertilizers, providing essential nutrients while promoting soil fertility and structure. PGPR can affect on plant growth by production and releases secondary metabolites, helps in preventing deleterious effects of phyto-pathogenic organisms in the rhizosphere. This will ultimately support for better yield and quality of horticultural crops.
