Rosemary production (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) in Colombia is destined mainly for international markets (2.898 t in 2006), Although the national demand is low, this is a promising crop in some areas of the country, having potential to enhance producers life quality through the implementation of sustainable crops allowing the decrease of non-beneficial conditions in agriculture labors. Studying the response to the application of biofertilizers as an alternative to implement rosemary organic crops has become an important tool for the integrated crop management. In this research three commercial biofertilizer applied to the soil were evaluated (Azotobacter chroococcum, Pseudomonas fluorescens, humic and fulvic acids) facing a control treatment, significant differences were found regarding the number of stems growth per plant, however variables as oil extract volume and plant height did not present significant differences when compared with control treatment.

La producción de romero (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) en Colombia está destinada principalmente a la exportación (2.898 t para el 2006) pues la demanda a nivel nacional es baja, sin embargo este es un cultivo promisorio en ciertas zonas del país, siendo potencial para algunos productores debido al mejoramiento de la calidad de vida a través de la implementación de cultivos sostenibles que permitan disminuir la nocividad de las labores agrícolas. Es así que conocer la respuesta de esta especie frente a la aplicación de biofertilizantes como alternativa para implementar cultivos de romero orgánicos se convierte en una herramienta base para el manejo integrado del cultivo. En esta investigación se evaluaron tres productos biofertilizantes comerciales aplicados al suelo (A. chroococcum, P. fluorescens, ácidos húmicos y fúlvicos) frente a un testigo, se encontraron diferencias significativas en el número de tallos generados por las plantas, sin embargo variables como el volumen de aceite esencial extraído y la altura de la planta no presentaron diferencias significativas con respecto al testigo.
