- More efficient use of soil and fertilizer nutrients. Up to 50% of mineral fertilizer, in particular phosphorus fertilizer, can be saved due to an increased fertilizer use efficiency.
- Better plant growth and biomass production, higher yields and quality of products of agronomic, horticultural and fruiticultural crops and trees.
- Improved survival rate of pre-inoculated nursery plants after transplantation to the field.
- Improved survival rate and better establishment of plants in recultivation, reforestation and land rehabilitation practices.
- Quicker and denser pasture and turf establishment.
- More efficient use of the legumes-Rhizobia symbiosis with increased biological N fixation rates.
- Due to increase in soil volume occupied by plant roots and finer roots, water uptake is improved leading to an increased water use efficiency of irrigation water.
- Improved plant health and higher resistance to soil-borne pathogens.
- Improved tolerance to environmental stresses caused by hight concentration of heavy metals or salt in the soil.
- Increased stability of soil aggregates by Glomalin (produced by VAM fungi) with positive long-term benefits for soil fertility
