Trichoderma :
Trichoderma spp. significantly suppress the growth of plant pathogenic microorganisms and regulate the rate of plant growth. Recent works have shown that common plant disease such as root rot disease, damping off, wilt, fruit rot and other plant diseases can be controlled by Trichoderma spp

Pseudomonas:
Plant Growth Promoting Properties of Pseudomonas. PGPR are bacteria that colonize plant roots, promote plant growth, or reduce insect/pathogen damage. Root-surface-colonizing bacteria give beneficial effects of plant development through direct or indirect mechanisms.
Pseudomonas fluorescens improves the soil properties by improving soil permeability and oxygen availability to the roots. Proper oxygen supply will prevent root diseases, fungal formations and root rots. The fertiliser is efficient in controlling rice blight in paddy crops. Improves the uptake of nutrients by roots .

Pseudomonas species can acts both as PGR and in phytopathogen control due to their ability to secrete specific compounds having essential roles in phosphate solubilizing compound production, siderophore production, and nitrogen fixation as a part of its plant growth-promoting activitie

Humic acids:
chemically change the fixation properties of the soil, with benefits such as: Neutralizes both acid and alkaline soils; regulates the pH-value of soils. Improves and optimizes the uptake of nutrients and water by plants. Increases buffering properties of soil.

Sugarcane trashes can potentially conserve soil moisture, reduce evaporation losses, and suppress the weed population. The contradictions about the performance of mulching exist as adverse effects of mulching have been reported by different scientists.
