A fungus. Penicillium sp. PS-113, with high phosphate-solubilizing activities was isolated from soil and formulated to powder type in order to manufacture it as a solid powder fertilizer. First of all, in this research, we are trying to establish an optimal condition for a drying process based on the drying time, temperature and humidity by testing its viability on potato dextrose agar(PDA) media after storing at $4^{\circ}C$. As a result the number of Penicillium sp. PS-1l3 conidia, which was dried at $80^{\circ}C$ and 15% humidity, and then stored at $4^{\circ}C$, was maximally increased to 60 times more than the control. But the viability of the conidia at $100^{\circ}C$ or over was decreased suddenly in spite of the period of storage.

A fungus, Aspergillus sp. PS-104, with the high phosphate-solubilizing activities was isolated from Korean upland soil and formulated into a solid powder type with various additives. For the long-time preservation of conidia, some additives (Tween 80, SDS, Triton X-100, glucose, glycerol, corn oil, bio-ceramic, PEG 200, $Cu^{++}$, $Mo^{+++}$, $Fe^{++}$, $Ca^{++}$ and $Zn^{++}$) were supplemented in the rice-cooked hard medium with various concentrations (0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 5.0%). In case of surfactants. the highest relative viability of the Aspergillus sp. PS-104 conidia was recorded nearly to 80% by the addition of 0.01 to 0.1% Tween 80, while 50% in control. The number of conidia were found to be about 100 times higher when treated at 0.01 to 0.1% Tween 80 as compared to control. Relative viability of the conidia was decreased in order of Tween 80 $\geq$ SDS > Triton X-100 during the storage at $25^{\circ}C$. As regards the organic additives, the relative viability of Aspergillus sp. PS-104 conidia was also recorded nearly to 80% by the addition of 1.0% bio-ceramic, and 5.0% glucose and sucrose during the storage at $25^{\circ}C$. In case of metal ions, the relative viability of Aspergillus sp. PS-104 conidia was decreased in order of $Cu^{2+}>Ca^{2+}>Mo^{3+}>Zn^{2+}>Fe^{2+}$ during the storage at $25^{\circ}C$.
