Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria are part of 2025's academic program for UNU-BIOLAC

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria have been co-evolving with plants since they conquered the soil, and we exclude them from our agricultural systems at our peril. Four of UNU-BIOLAC's academic projects for 2025 aim to harness the benefits they can bring to humanity and the planet by boosting agricultural outputs with sustainable technologies like biofertilizers, plant-hormone modulators, and pathogen deterrents.
