Mung Bean

Crop application data

Mung Bean Vigna radiata

A fast-maturing pulse, often ready in ~60–70 days, prized for rotations and as a protein-rich food across Asia.

Mung Bean — Vigna radiata

60–70 days

the entire window mung bean has to nodulate and fix — miss the early start and the chance is gone.

The challenge

Its short cycle leaves little time to build nitrogen, so early, vigorous nodulation is decisive; weak establishment wastes the crop’s fixation window.

01

A quick pulse that earns its slot

Often ready in 60–70 days, mung bean squeezes a protein harvest and a nitrogen boost into short rotation windows across Asia.

02

The clock is the constraint

Its short cycle leaves little time to build nitrogen, so nodulation has to be early and vigorous — or the fixation window closes before it opens.

03

A weak start wastes the crop

Patchy or slow establishment means thin nodulation and a lost chance to fix, on a crop whose whole value is speed.

The Mung Bean program

A crop-matched program led by the Orvan™ coupling, backed by a region-specific rhizobium (Nodu™) and phosphate-solubilizing, stress-tolerance PGPR (Vigor™). Each is field-proven and available on its own.

Orvan™ Mungbean

Rhizosphere coordination consortium

Orvan™ Mungbean

Nitrogen-fixation potentiation — applied alongside your rhizobial inoculant. Orvan™ carries no rhizobia of its own; it amplifies the ones already adapted to your soil.

Field-proven (vs untreated control)
+15.3% yield · up to 4.8× more nodules · ≤55 kg N/ha fixed
Strains
B. velezensis · Brevibacillus laterosporus · P. mucilaginosus
Trial network
54 sites / 5 provinces
Available as
Base · Coat · Root
Nodu™ MB

Rhizobial inoculant

Nodu™ MB

The region-matched, nitrogen-fixing rhizobia your crop needs — so it fixes more of its own nitrogen and you buy less.

Field-proven (standalone, vs control)
+9.3% yield · 28 sites
Rhizobium
Bradyrhizobium (Vigna group)
Nitrogen
Up to 55 kg N/ha within a 60–70-day cycle

Peat · Liquid · Coat · Granule · FD · Duo
Vigor™

PGPR — phosphorus & stress

Vigor™

Frees bound soil phosphorus, builds stronger roots, and buffers drought and salinity stress — the second leg of the consortium.

Field-proven (standalone, vs control)
+7.8% yield · 24 sites
Strains
B. subtilis · P. fluorescens · B. megaterium · A. brasilense (Ab-V5 / Ab-V6-type)
Measured
up to 25% less applied P · +12% root biomass

Orvan™ field trials · Mung Bean · vs. untreated control

Field-proven · +15.3% average yield

Across 54 sites in 5 provinces (Jilin, Inner Mongolia, Henan; 2021–2024): +15.3% average yield, up to 4.8× more nodules, nitrogenase up to 4.5×, and up to 55 kg N/ha fixed within a 60–70-day cycle, from vigorous early nodulation.
