ICAR-IIHR Validated Strains
Restores Soil Biology
AREKAL ORGANICS & BIO FERTILIZERS PRIVATE LIMITED originated as an incubated SME at the prestigious ICAR – Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR), Hesaraghatta, Bengaluru, operating from 2020 to 2023.
During this incubation period, our scientific team collaborated closely with ICAR scientists to commercialize breakthrough bio-input technologies designed to rejuvenate soil microflora, enhance nutrient uptake efficiency, and reduce chemical dependency in Indian agriculture.
Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium & Zinc solubilizing bio-culture.
Accelerated in-situ agricultural biomass degradation.
From scientific incubation at ICAR-IIHR to delivering biological agricultural inputs across India.
Officially incorporated and established incubation partnership at ICAR-IIHR, Hesaraghatta, Bengaluru, initiating microbial isolate research.
Formulated high-titer bio-cultures including Arka Microbial Consortia (AMC), Vegetable Special micronutrient blends, and organic bio-decomposers.
Conducted extensive field trials across horticultural, cereal, and commercial crop belts in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra with outstanding yield gains.
Graduated from incubation, set up automated fermentation manufacturing facility, and commercialized licensed ICAR-IIHR technologies into retail market.
Working directly with progressive farmers, FPOs, and plantation enterprises to enable chemical-free biological farming and carbon footprint reduction.
Bio-fertilizers, microbial consortia, and specialty nutrition engineered for maximum soil biology rejuvenation.
Advanced liquid/carrier microbial bio-fertilizer combining Nitrogen fixers, Phosphate & Potash solubilizers, and Zinc mobilizers in a single liquid culture.
High-speed fungal and bacterial isolate consortium engineered to digest crop residue, paddy straw, sugarcane trash, and organic farm waste into humus-rich compost.
Scientifically balanced micronutrient formulation designed for tomato, chilli, brinjal, capsicum, and cucurbits to prevent flower drop and boost fruit yield by 20-30%.
How scientific microbe isolation at ICAR-IIHR is translated into commercial high-potency bio-inputs.
Screening & isolation of high-efficiency soil bacteria & fungi.
Genetic identification and biocontrol viability testing.
Substrate optimization & bio-culture titer maximization.
Multi-location agro-climatic trial validation across India.
Sterile mass scale liquid fermentation & quality control.
Technical advisory & field-level application support.
Rejuvenating agricultural ecosystems through biological carbon cycle enhancement and reduced chemical reliance.
Restores benefical soil microbial flora, increases organic carbon content, and improves soil moisture retention capacities naturally.
Enhances root architecture and systemic crop immunity, leading to residue-free, nutrient-dense produce with higher market value.
Eliminates toxic chemical exposure for farming families while lowering cultivation input costs by 25-35% per acre.
Prevents chemical runoff into groundwater reserves and sequesters atmospheric carbon back into living agricultural soils.
Glimpses of our research facilities, fermentation plants, and farmer field demonstrations.
