A novel formulation of the plant growth promoting rhizobacteria with enhanced shelf-life and the method of its preparation : This invention relates to a novel carrier based bacterial inoculant with improved shelf-life, particularly at higher temperatures of the tropics. It is based on agriculturally important microbes, particularly bacteria, more particularly indigenous plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, either single genus or a combination of genera, incorporated, entrapped and immobilised in a water insoluble super-absorbent
