Solution

The correct option is D Turmeric
Turmeric is not a biofertilizer as it does not contain any living organism (bacteria, algae or fungus); it just has antifungal properties. Cultures of Rhizobium, Anabaena and Mycorrhizae are used as biofertilizers due to their ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen and phosphate solubilising abilities.
