Changnyeong-gun Urges Use of Beneficial Microorganisms During Garlic and Onion Planting

Supply of Microbial Agents Made from Patented Microbial Strains by RDA at Agricultural Technology Center

Microorganisms recommended to each farm by Changnyeong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, to reduce odor during onion and garlic sowing.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Wook] "Please actively use the microbial agent patented by the Rural Development Administration to eliminate foul odors."

Changnyeong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, urged the active use of microbial agents supplied by the Agricultural Technology Center to reduce foul odors caused by immature and poor-quality compost during garlic and onion planting.

The Changnyeong Agricultural Technology Center is producing and supplying microbial agents using patented microbial strains developed by the Rural Development Administration, which are effective in promoting compost and liquid fertilizer maturation and reducing foul odors, utilizing the cultivation facilities established through the remodeling project of the beneficial microorganism cultivation room since this year.

The microbial agent exhibits excellent growth and organic matter decomposition ability at medium to high temperatures (40?60℃) during livestock manure fermentation, making it highly effective in promoting manure maturation and reducing foul odors.

Dilute the microbial agent in about 1000?2000 liters of clean water, mix and stir it with the compost before spreading to promote maturation, and then use the compost.

In areas where complaints are expected, such as farmland near residential areas, additional microbial agent should be sprayed after compost spreading, followed by prompt tillage to reduce compost odor emissions.

A county official stated, "Since this year, we have mass-produced about 20 tons of microbial agents and distributed them to farms. We ask farmers to actively utilize these microbial agents to prepare for compost odor emissions."
