• Pseudomonas fluorescens 1.0% WP is a talc-based bio-fungicide containing a minimum of \(1 \times 10^{8}\) CFU/g of beneficial Pseudomonas fluorescens bacteria.
• It protects crops from soil- and seed-borne fungal diseases (like wilt, blight, and root rot), controls plant-parasitic nematodes, and promotes plant growth. 

Key Features & Benefits

• Key Agricultural Benefits Disease Prevention: Acts as a systematic biocontrol agent that prevents major soil-borne and seed-borne diseases like wilt, root rot, damping-off, and blight.
• Pest Suppression: Highly effective as a natural nematicide, suppressing damaging nematodes (like Root-knot and cyst-forming nematodes) that attack crops.
• Enhanced Growth: Produces growth-promoting substances that boost root development, improve nutrient uptake, and increase overall crop yields by 15-25%.
• Systemic Resistance: Triggers the plant's natural immune system, making it more resilient to climate-related stresses and external infections.
• Safe and Sustainable: Leaves zero toxic residue, is safe for the environment, and helps reduce reliance on harsh chemical fungicides by up to 50–70%

Mode of Action

• Acts as an antagonistic bacteria that produces iron-chelating siderophores, antibiotics, and lytic enzymes to starve and destroy harmful plant pathogens.

Crop & Disease/Pest Mapping

• Target Crops: Paddy, maize, vegetables (tomato, okra), pulses, oilseeds, and fruit crops.

Dosage per Acre

• Dose : 1kg / acre

Additional Information

• Application & Dosage Seed Treatment: Mix 5-10 grams of the powder per kilogram of seeds. Add a small amount of water to coat the seeds evenly, then dry them in the shade before sowing.
• Seedling Root Dip: Dissolve 100 grams of the powder in 10 liters of water. Dip the roots of your seedlings in this solution for 30–45 minutes before transplanting them into the field.
• Soil Treatment: Mix 1–2 kg of the formulation with 50 kg of well-decomposed organic manure or compost. Broadcast this evenly over one acre of your field before planting.
• Foliar Spray: Mix 5-10 grams per liter of water and spray it evenly on the leaves to prevent foliar fungal infections.
