Abstract
Evaluating the growth of the bean species Phaseolus sp. using biostimulants is essential due to the increasing demand for sustainable agricultural methods. This study presents the results of evaluating the effect of Trichoderma sp., mountain microorganisms, and a combination of both on the growth of Phaseolus sp. The results indicated that the combination of Trichoderma sp. and mountain microorganisms was the most effective treatment, with an average height of 28 cm and 90 out of 144 seeds germinated. The treatment with mountain microorganisms showed an average growth of 26.5 cm and 78 germinated seeds, while the treatment with Trichoderma sp. reached 21 cm in height and 61 germinated seeds. The control, although showing an average growth of 25.5 cm and 68 germinated seeds, presented fungal contamination, which could compromise the long-term viability of the seedlings. In conclusion, the use of biofertilizers, especially the combination of Trichoderma sp. and mountain microorganisms, is a promising alternative for improving the growth of Phaseolus sp. These treatments not only promote robust and healthy growth but also offer advantages in terms of agricultural sustainability.
