Effect of biofertilizers on phosphorus nutrition and grain yield of des chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) grown in different agro-ecologies
… food security. Literature reveals, however, that biofertilizers have the potential to improve crop growth, grain yields and, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities in both the plant tissue and soil. Nonetheless, there is scant information about the biofertilizers’ effects on their co-application …
