How to Store Inoculants
Whether you just received your inoculant, or if you’re storing extra inoculant from last year, here are optimum storage conditions for rhizobium inoculant viability.
Inoculants should be kept in a temperature-controlled environment and protected from fluctuating temperatures.
During extreme cold temps, inoculants are susceptible to freeze/thaw cycles, which are detrimental to rhizobium viability.
