Summary
Bacterial preparation is worked out the basis of bacteria Васillus subtilis for the protection of vegetables grown in open (cabbage, carrot) and protected (cucumber, tomato) soil from fungal and bacterial diseases.
Description
Biopesticide “Phytoprotectin” is effective against tracheal and mucous bacterioses, cabbage blackspot, carrot leaf blotch, root rot, ascochyta-leaf spot, cucumber scab; vascular wilt, cladosporiosis and grey tomato mold. The preparation initiates seed germination and plant growth.
Technology type
Technical advantages and economic benefits
The advantage of the proposed technology is its wastelessness and efficiency as a result of the use of quickly growing isolate-producer and cheap raw material.
Technology differentiation and uniqueness
The competiveness of a new Biopesticide in domestic and world market will be provided by the obtainable price (6-10 $/l) as well as a wide range of phytoprotective action and growth-stimulating activity which in the aggregate ensures higher yield increase (20-25%) than renowned analogs.
