Climatic instability & improper planning is the major reason for loss of crop<br />
productivity and there by sustainability in agriculture and environment. The concept of<br />
sustainable environment by eco-friendly measures is paying heed from all walk of<br />
science .One of them is use of biofertilizer for enhancement in product quality and<br />
quantity besides controlling the excessive load of nutrient in soil or in air and water<br />
which is not available to plant for growth. If bound form inoculants (microorganism<br />
;bacteria ,fungi, algae) is applied then it might be beneficial for plant growth for long<br />
term; because these( lower plant) play crucial role to the fate of applied available<br />
nutrient .For instance; my work revolve around potted Aloe vera ; a medicinal plant and<br />
application of Azospirillum +Bacillus .Former has a vast potential to fix nitrogen and<br />
later one I preferred for its phosphate solublizing capability from ambient environment<br />
particularly from soil. Because basic building block element of cellular structure<br />
(among total 118 element) is framed by these two element in the form of amino acid for<br />
protein formation and DNA as a chromatin material by nitrogen and phosphorus<br />
respectively The losses caused by leaching, emission, run-off by indiscriminate use of<br />
chemical fertilizers, particularly the nitrogenous, has led to substantial pollution of soil,<br />
air and water. High permissible limit of nitrate and nitrite in water bodies, soil; caused<br />
by run off and leaching of excessive nitrogen salt, applied as fertilizer are also<br />
responsible for ozone depletion.<br />
Aloe vera a medicinal plant of liliacae family is used to monitor the consequences<br />
and its result has shown that we could overcome adversity if proper management and<br />
planning have done. So medicinal plant of high economical value like Aloe farming and<br />
use of eco friendly technique would be a better way to achieve sustainability for both<br />
agriculture and environment and thereby human welfare.<br />
