Buy Trichoderma for Arecanut – Control Root Rot and Yellow Leaf
Share
Arecanut is a major cash crop in Kozhikode’s midland areas. But root rot, yellow leaf disease, and nut drop are serious problems. Root rot (Phytophthora) damages feeder roots, causing yellowing and palm decline. Yellow leaf disease is often linked to nutrient deficiency and secondary fungal infections. Nut drop during monsoon can cut yields by 30‑50%.
Trichoderma is your organic ally.
How to apply Trichoderma on arecanut:
Soil application (pre‑monsoon and post‑monsoon):
-
Take 200‑250g of Bactostore’s Trichoderma powder per adult palm
-
Mix with 20‑25 kg of well‑decomposed FYM or cow dung
-
Apply in the basin around the palm (15‑20 cm from the trunk)
-
Cover lightly with soil
-
Apply twice a year – pre‑monsoon (April‑May) and post‑monsoon (September‑October)
For yellow leaf disease (integrated approach):
-
First, apply 200‑250g Trichoderma powder with 25 kg FYM per palm
-
Then, after 15 days, apply NPK consortia (100‑200 ml liquid per palm diluted in 5‑10 litres water) as a soil drench
-
Also apply micronutrients (zinc, boron) if deficiency is suspected
For nut drop during monsoon:
-
Mix 20g Trichoderma powder in 1 litre of water – make a suspension
-
Spray on the developing nuts and spadix once every 15 days during monsoon
