PHYTOPHOS
Phytophos is Trade name of Bio nature. For potassium Phosphonate containing 40% phosphorus acid along with water soluable herbal extract and potash as neutralizing agent along with china green. It is a scientifically blended water-soluble salt of phosphorus acid and containing 40% as H3 PO3 and 24% as Potassium in Phosphonate form. Phosphorus acid as shown excellent activity against Oomycetes fungi like Phytophthora, Pythium, Peronospora, Plasmopara, Sclerospora and many genera of phycomycetes in vitro as well as in vivo. Phytophos is in true sense systemic chemical get translocated through root as well as foliage. Unlike other fungicides, Phytophos is translocated through xylem as well as phloem. It has strong curative and protective action against target pathogen. It is not toxic to non-target microorganisms and adopts very well in the integrated disease management. Being only specific to Oomycetes fungi, Phytophos can be an ideal partner in fungicide mixture to provide broad spectrum control of diseases.
Potassium Phosphonate being highly cost effective, being friendly to eco system including soil and crop and specific and hard to control pathogems may emerge as leading agro input commodity. Unlike other pesticides, potassium Phosphonate once degraded in the soil gets converted into plant nutrient, H3PO3 which is used as phosphate sources to plants. Potassium gets disassociated in plant system and perform the role of one of the major nutrient and potassium phosphate server as double action product controlling the disease and then server as nutrient to plants
Phytophos is a systemic, specific disease suppressor, against Oomycetous fungi like Phytophthora, Pythium, Plasmopara, Pernospora and Sclerospora. Phytophos has both protective as well as curative action against target diseases
Benefits
- Protects crops from Fungal and Bacterial diseases.
- Also helps plants to overcome Virus infection.
- Also promotes healthy plant growth.
- Easily absorbed by the plant both through the roots and the leaves
- Applicable for all types of crops, plants
- Activates defense mechanism of plant
- Absorbed and taken up across the membranes of plant foliage, roots in both their nutritive and plant protective role
- Shows immediate activity
- Disrupts the phosphorus metabolism in the pathogen, inhibiting its growth and causing it to release stress molecules
- Photoalexin is produced which attacks the disease directly, phosphite also helps maximize this by providing ideal nutrition.
- Relieves ‘hidden phosphorus hunger’ during fast growth stages.
- Stimulates healthy growth during conditions which may be favorable to the development of some root rots and leaf mildew.
- Complements the action and mobility of other nutrients such as manganese and iron.
- Non persistent in the environment, as readily oxidized to phosphate by soil microbes, and also has very low mammalian toxicity.
- Potassium phosphonate is non phytotoxic and having very minimal pathogen resistance
- Compatible with almost all pesticides and fungicides
- Can be used for both protective as well as curative treatment.
- Do not remain as harmful residue in plant systemically and locally.
- Encourages the production of polysaccharides which strengthen the cell walls, giving additional protection.
- It is more environmentally safer and more target friendly than applying as a foliar spray
- Increases crop yield remarkably
