Course Name : Bio Fertilizer Preparation

Course Code (T-P-P):1-2-0

Course Description:

The purpose of a Certificate Course in Bio-fertilizer Preparation is to prepare students for a career in Bio-fertilizer production. This field is essential for the growth of plants, and it requires experts who are well-equipped with cutting-edge technologies, creative research ideas, and the highest ethical standards. The course focuses on providing vocational training for farmers and empowering them with the right knowledge to make their own bio-fertilizers. There are many benefits to a Certificate Course in Bio-fertilizer Preparation. One of the most important is the opportunity to become part of the industry's future. The production of Bio-fertilizers is an increasingly popular industry in the developed world. Because Bio-fertilizers are sustainable and ecologically friendly, many farmers are choosing to use them over chemical fertilizers. The Bio-fertilizers are cost-effective and environmentally friendly, and they ensure sustainable farming

Course Objectives:

  • To demonstrate the low cost media preparation and impart training of ecofriendly agricultural inputs in biofertilizer production.

Learning Outcomes

.Ability to distinguish the types of  biofertilizers and methods of application in farmers field

.Development of integrated management for best results using nitrogenous and phosphate biofertilizers.
