Used in agricultural biotechnology to cultivate nitrogen-fixing bacteria that enhance soil fertility. Supports the growth of beneficial microbes that convert atmospheric nitrogen into forms usable by plants, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers. Applied in the production of biofertilizers for sustainable farming practices. Helps improve crop yield and soil health in organic and low-input farming systems. Also utilized in research and development of microbial inoculants for leguminous and non-leguminous crops.
