SUN BIO SS BAC (BIO FERTILIZER SILICON SOLUBILIZING BACTERIA)
About SUN BIO SS BAC (Bio Fertilizer – Silicon Solubilizing Bacteria)
Sun Bio SS-Bac is a bio fertilizer based on a selected strain of naturally occurring beneficial bacteria. It acts as an effective soil inoculant that solubilizes silica, providing plants with strength to tolerate biotic and abiotic stresses while improving resistance to pests and diseases.
Technical Details
| Technical Name | Silicate Solubilising Bacteria (CFU: 2 x 109 Cells/ml) |
| Mode of Action | The microbes produce organic acids (citric acid, oxalic acid, ketonic acids, hydroxyl carbolic acids) during metabolism. These acids, along with H+ ions, hydrolyze soil silicates, converting insoluble silica complexes into plant-available forms. This process strengthens cell walls and improves stress resistance. |
Key Features & Benefits
- Mobilizes unavailable silica ions and makes them assimilable by plants.
- Strengthens plant cell walls, improving resistance against pests and diseases.
- Protects crops from lodging and helps plants withstand biotic and abiotic stresses.
- Improves plant and soil health, aiding in natural soil remediation.
- Eco-friendly: safe for earthworms, pets, and the environment.
- Increases crop persistence, longevity, and hardness.
Usage & Recommended Crops
Recommended Crops: Cereals, millets, fruits, vegetables, flowers, sugarcane, plantation, and field crops.
Dosage & Method of Application
- Soil Application (per acre): Mix 1 liter of Sun Bio SS Bac with 50–100 kg of well-decomposed manure/cake and apply evenly on moist soil.
- Drenching: Mix 10 ml of Sun Bio SS Bac in 1 liter of water and apply near the root zone.
- Fertigation (per acre): Mix 1–2 liters in sufficient water and apply in the root zone through drip irrigation.
