Anabaena adds organic matter as well as extra nitrogen to the soil. This chlorophyll-containing prokaryotic organism fix atmospheric nitrogen. It is considered to be the most active nitrogen fixer of rice fields.

Glomus is a potential biofertilizer which mobilizes P, Fe, Zn, B and other trace elements. It supplies moisture from far-off inches and is ideal for long duration crops. It can be used in annual crops like cereals, pulses, oil seeds and fruit crops

In rice, normally short duration varieties take 100−120 days, medium duration 120−140 days, and long duration 160 days plus. But most varieties take 60−65 days from panicle initiation to harvest. So we can refer to rice crop as short duration. So glomus is not as suitable for rice as anabaena.

Okk thnku 😊
