TRICHODERMA HARZIANUM

Product Description:

Trichoderma harzianum is a beneficial fungus commonly used in agriculture for its ability to promote plant growth, suppress plant pathogens, and improve soil health. It is a naturally occurring microorganism found in many soils worldwide.

This strain of Trichoderma is particularly effective in enhancing plant growth by colonizing the roots and forming a symbiotic relationship with the plants. It secretes enzymes that solubilize nutrients, making them more accessible to the plants. 

Additionally, it produces secondary metabolites that inhibit the growth of harmful fungi and bacteria, thus protecting the plants from diseases such as root rot and damping-off.

Trichoderma harzianum is compatible with various crops and can be used in organic farming practices. It is an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical pesticides and fungicides, promoting sustainable agriculture.

How to Use in Farming:

Seed Treatment: Mix Trichoderma harzianum powder with water to form a slurry. Dip seeds in this slurry for uniform coating before planting. This helps establish beneficial fungi around the roots from the earliest stages of plant growth.

Soil Application: Apply Trichoderma harzianum near the root zone of plants either by broadcasting or through localized application during transplanting. Ensure thorough mixing with soil for optimal root colonization.

Foliar Spray: Prepare a solution of Trichoderma harzianum by mixing the powder with water. Spray the solution on plant foliage during vegetative growth stages to enhance nutrient absorption and provide protection against foliar diseases.

Drenching: Dilute Trichoderma harzianum powder in water and apply directly to the soil around the plant roots. This method ensures direct contact of the beneficial fungi with the root system, promoting symbiosis and disease suppression.

Compatibility: Trichoderma harzianum can be integrated into existing crop management practices and is compatible with most commonly used fertilizers and biopesticides. However, avoid using chemical fungicides simultaneously, as they may inhibit the growth of beneficial fungi.

Frequency: Apply Trichoderma harzianum at regular intervals throughout the growing season for sustained benefits. Follow recommended dosage rates provided by the manufacturer for optimal results.
