CROPIUM

CROPIUM, Soil-Borne Disease Management with Penicillium bilaiae

Cropium is an eco-friendly organic fungicide formulated to control major soil-borne pathogens, including Verticillium and Fusarium wilt. The active microbe P. bilaiae enhances root colonization, phosphate solubilization, and nutrient availability. Cropium promotes stronger root systems, higher stress tolerance, and increased crop yields. Suitable for a broad range of crops such as tomatoes, peppers, and cotton. Recommended for sustainable agriculture and integrated disease management programs.

Active in cool soil temperature when phosphate is less available

Ｍode of action: Freeing Phosphate - Penicillium bilaiae releases bound mineral forms of soil and fertilizer phosphate, making it more readily available for the plant to use. Up to 90% of applied phosphate fertilizer goes unused in the year of application as it gets tied (bound) to soil particles and other elements, making it unavailable to the crop. Some of this is used over subsequent years, but at least 25% never becomes available1. It is crucial to make the most efficient use of fertilizer phosphate to maximize yield potential.

Dosage & Method

Apply 1.5 gram / sqm if soil drench, as early as possible to the crop for optimal effect.
It can be applied utilizing commercial on seed application equipment. Applicators used previously for pesticides should be triple rinsed before using for Phos Activator.
Phos Activator can be used with all nitrogen-fixing rhizobial inoculants, To mix Phos Activator with a liquid inoculant, first suspend the entire contents of the Phos Activator in a small amount of the liquid inoculant for easier mixing. Pour the mixture into the remaining liquid Rhizobia inoculant and mix to suspend. No additional water is required.
