Exploring the Bacillus from Vegetable Rhizosphere for Plant Growth

Harnessing Beneficial Microbes for Sustainable Agriculture Supporting Global Goals
 A research team has explored Bacillus strains from the rhizosphere of vegetables to assess their potential in enhancing plant growth. The results show that Bacillus species can improve nutrient uptake, strengthen plant immunity, and enhance root development, thereby reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. This supports SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDG 15 (Life on Land) by promoting more sustainable agricultural systems.

Led by Risanti, R.R, the study highlights how beneficial microbes can serve as biofertilizers that are both effective and environmentally safe. This microbial approach paves the way toward reducing the overuse of agrochemicals, improving crop resilience, and supporting long-term soil health.
