DharaMitra 500 ml

Uses of DharaMitra:

• Disease Control: Suppresses Rhizome Rot, Fusarium Wilt, and damping-off, protecting yields by 10–20%.

• Soil Health: Enhances nutrient availability for turmeric and tomatoes.

• Cost Savings: Reduces fungicide use by 20–30%, lowering costs for cotton farmers.

• Eco-Friendly: Safe for soil ecosystems, minimizing chemical runoff.

• Pest Resilience: Boosts plant vigor, reducing nematode damage in turmeric.

Dosage and Method of Application

• Dosage:

  • Liquid: 1–2 L per acre (1x10^8 CFU/ml min.).

• Methods:

  • Soil Application: Mix DharaMitra powder or liquid with compost; apply to soil during planting for sugarcane or turmeric to control Rhizome Rot.

  • Seed Treatment: Coat rice or wheat seeds with liquid DharaMitra for early disease protection.

  • Root Dip: Dip tomato or turmeric seedlings in DharaMitra solution during transplanting.

• Equipment: Use knapsack sprayer for drenching or irrigation for soil application.

• Compatibility: Avoid chemical fungicides; compatible with biofertilizers like Azotobacter.

Best Times for Application and Benefits

• Pre-Planting (Soil Preparation): Apply during land preparation for rice or sugarcane (e.g., February for sugarcane, June for kharif rice).
  Benefit: Suppresses soil pathogens, preventing 10–20% yield loss.

• Seedling Stage (2–3 Weeks Post-Planting): Use root dip or soil drench for turmeric or tomatoes (e.g., August for turmeric).
  Benefit: Protects roots from Rhizome Rot, increasing turmeric yield by 10–15%.

• Monsoon Season (High Humidity): Apply during humid conditions for cotton (e.g., July–August).
  Benefit: Enhances fungal activity, reducing nematode damage.

• Avoid Dry Periods: Low moisture limits efficacy; apply with irrigation if needed.

Why Timing Matters: Pre-planting or seedling-stage application in moist conditions maximizes disease suppression, protecting yields and reducing fungicide costs.
