Abstract

Tamaulipas occupies the largest area of planting of sorghum in Mexico, mostly as monoculture and presents critical productivity. Microbial inoculation or biofertilization is a practice that promotes sustainable agriculture. We describe some of the results of studies conducted mainly with mycorrhizal inoculation in sorghum in Tamaulipas. With Rhizophagus intraradices (mycorrhiza INIFAP) symbiosis, originated increased production of sorghum in two soil textures. The productivity of sorghum with R. intraradices
or Asospirillum brasilense individually inoculated was superior to the co-inoculation of both. For five consecutive years the yield of R. intraradices was equaled to chemical fertilization (60-20-00); after five years, mycorrhizal fungus increased the biological activity of soil, without altering the chemical properties of the same. We identified the effectiveness of some native microbial strains in sorghum productivity.
