AgriLife Nitrofix®-PD is a biofertilizer based on a selected strain of naturally-occurring beneficial facultative anaerobic bacteria Paenibacillus durus (MCC 0046). Paenibacillus durus durus is a gram-positive endospore forming bacterium. Paenibacillus durus is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium often found in soil and in the rhizospheres of different grasses. It can actively fix about 50 kg/ Ha of Nitrogen. It is used as an effective seed dressing product and soil inoculant. AgriLife Nitrofix ®-PD contains endospores of Paenibacillus durus.

A fraction of the product may not be soluble in water. It is advisable to filter and discard undissolved residue and use filtered liquid for spraying or feeding through drip irrigation.
Mode of Action
Bio active compound synthesis: Azotobacter vinelandii synthesizes some biologically active substances including some phytohormones such as auxins thereby stimulating plant growth. They also facilitate the mobility of heavy metals in the soil and thus enhance bioremediation of soil from heavy metals, such as cadmium, mercury and lead.
