Petroleum-based plastics persist in the environment, creating a need for biodegradable alternatives. This study investigated PHA production by a rhizosphere isolate identified as Bacillus subtilis and its incorporation into an agar–chitosan film. PHA production was screened using Mineral Davis Medium and Sudan Black B staining. The polymer was extracted using sodium hypochlorite–chloroform treatment and incorporated into the film with glycerol as a plasticizer. The film was evaluated by FTIR, solubility, melting-point, and soil-burial tests. PHA was insoluble in water but soluble in chloroform. The film showed a melting point of approximately 70°C and 26.9% weight loss after 20 days of soil burial. The findings support the potential of PHA-based films for biodegradable packaging applications.
