Bio Sanjivani (Trichoderma Viride 1% WP + Pseudomonas fluorescens 0.5% WP)

Introduction:

Bio Sanjivani is a biological fungicide and bio-control agent containing Trichoderma viride (1% WP) and Pseudomonas fluorescens (0.5% WP). It is designed to control soil-borne and seed-borne diseases caused by fungal pathogens while promoting plant growth.

This eco-friendly product enhances soil health, improves plant immunity, and supports sustainable agriculture practices.

Key Features:

1. Dual-Action Formula:

   • Combines Trichoderma viride and Pseudomonas fluorescens for effective disease suppression.

2. Eco-Friendly Solution:

   • Biodegradable and safe for humans, animals, and beneficial insects.

3. Disease Control:

   • Protects against soil-borne pathogens like Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, Pythium, and Phytophthora.

4. Plant Growth Promotion:

   • Enhances root development and improves nutrient uptake.

5. Soil Health Improvement:

   • Increases microbial diversity and strengthens soil fertility.

6. Residue-Free:

   • Leaves no harmful residues in crops, making it ideal for organic farming.

Mode of Action:

Trichoderma Viride (1% WP):

• Antagonistic Action: Competes with harmful fungi for space and nutrients, suppressing their growth.

• Parasitic Effect: Attacks and degrades pathogen cell walls, leading to their destruction.

• Induced Resistance: Stimulates plant defense mechanisms against future infections.

Pseudomonas fluorescens (0.5% WP):

• Antibiotic Production: Produces antibiotics that inhibit pathogen growth.

• Enzyme Secretion: Releases enzymes that break down fungal cell walls.

• Iron Chelation (Siderophores): Limits iron availability to pathogens, weakening them.

• Root Colonization: Forms a protective barrier around roots to prevent disease attacks.

Target Diseases and Pests:

Diseases Controlled:

• Damping-Off (Pythium, Rhizoctonia)

• Root Rot (Fusarium spp.)
