Why Kozhikode Farmers Choose Bactostore Pseudomonas fluorescens – Organic, KAU‑Developed & Broad‑Spectrum

Kozhikode’s coconut, banana, pepper, arecanut, vegetable, and paddy crops are valuable. Fungal diseases cause massive losses every year – from root rot and stem bleeding to Panama wilt, quick wilt, damping‑off, and sheath blight. Chemical fungicides are expensive, harm soil health, kill beneficial organisms, and pathogens quickly develop resistance.

Pseudomonas fluorescens is 100% organic – it leaves zero chemical residues on your produce.

What KAU research proves – KAU, Kerala: The Kerala Agricultural University (KAU) has isolated, characterized, and developed the biocontrol bacterial strain Pseudomonas fluorescens PN026. This strain is currently being commercially distributed by KAU to farmers as a biocontrol agent against plant diseases. KAU has also developed a farmer‑friendly coconut water‑based multiplication method for this strain.

KAU recommendations for integrated disease management:

  • For seed treatment: “Treat seeds with Pseudomonas fluorescens (20 g/litre of water/kg of seed) and soil application of Pseudomonas fluorescens fortified in neem cake also reduces the disease incidence.”

  • For damping‑off control: “Application of bio‑control agent Pseudomonas florescence (20 g/litre of water/kg of seed) are also found to be effective for the control damping‑off to considerable extent.”

  • For cardamom stem rot (applicable to arecanut and other crops): KAU recommends “a prophylactic foliar spray and drenching of the plant bases with 2% Pseudomonas fluorescens PN026 preparation in cow dung supernatant before the onset of summer.”

Why Pseudomonas fluorescens is better than chemical fungicides:



Feature Chemical Fungicides Pseudomonas fluorescens
Residues on produce Yes – can affect export Zero residues – safe
Effect on soil health Kills beneficial organisms Improves soil biology
Pathogen resistance Develops quickly (2‑3 seasons) Very rare – multiple mechanisms
Waiting period before harvest 7‑30 days required None – spray up to harvest
Organic certification Not allowed Allowed and encouraged
