The use of biofertilizers can give benefits the soil plants. Mycorrhizal fungi be used a type biological fertilizer. application arbuscular mycorrhizal (AMF) in powder dosage forms help growth However, this form has disadvantages, so study is needed determine effectiveness AMF various forms. This applied Latin Square Design (LSD), with three treatments propagule forms, namely: tablets, sachets, powders, without comparison/control. results showed sachets provided reasonable infection rate fertile plant harvest index value was not significantly different from other due attack plant-disturbing organisms before harvest. So, further research effect physiological review invasion organisms.
