Dextrose Based Trichoderma Harzianum Powder Formulation (100 % Water Soluble) 2 × 10⁸ CFU/g

Technical Information

HOW TO USE GUIDE PDF

Trichoderma harzianum is a hyperparasitic soil fungus used as a broad-spectrum bio-fungicide and plant growth enhancer. It aggressively colonizes plant roots, directly parasitizes pathogenic fungi, induces systemic resistance (ISR), and improves nutrient availability. Formulated at 2 × 10⁸ CFU/g on a talc carrier, it provides sustainable disease management.

Key Advantage

Dual-Action Suppression:
Parasitizes chitin-rich pathogens (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Rhizoctonia solani) through enzymatic hydrolysis (chitinases, glucanases) while producing auxins to stimulate root growth.
