dc.description.abstractPoor farmers needs have not been reflected in policies and programs for biofertilizers in Tamil Nadu, a bio-innovation which benefits farmers as well as researchers and manufacturers in terms of cost, environmental safety and sustainability. This paper, while analysing the Azospirillum bio-innovation system, brings out positive lessons from some local efforts in the State, towards bringing a pro-poor focus to public sector research and development. Balanced and conjunctive use of organic (bio-fertilisers) and inorganic fertilisers has been promoted for building up soil health and agricultural productivity in the state, and can build capacity through pro-poor initiatives.en
