A bacterial product may comprise strains Azospirillum oryzae AO512, Azospirillum lipoferum AL20, Pantoea dispersa PD2, Bacillus subtilis TU2, Lysinibacillus sphaericus 3S and Paenibacillus polymyxa SR17, in a total minimal concentration of 108 CFU/g (Colony forming Units). These bacteria may be attached to an insoluble granular carrier formed of a mixture of natural clays and minerals. This formulation may preserve the viability of the microorganism for a long time while in storage, as well as after its application on the field. These microorganisms, as PGPR, may be capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen, solubilize phosphates, potassium, as well as other minerals immobilized in the soil, which allows for a drastic reduction, and even for a complete elimination, of conventional fertilization methods. These bacteria are not harmful in any sense neither to human beings nor the environment.
