Description:

AGRIVENTURE MYCOMAN is a beneficial, mutualistic symbiosis between soil fungi and plant roots. The fungus colonizes the root cortex, forming two hallmark structures: arbuscules (branched, tree-like structures that transfer nutrients into the plant) and vesicles (swollen, sac-like structures that store nutrients).

Technical content: Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhiza (VAM)

Key Features & Benefits:

• Enhanced Growth: Improved nutrient and water uptake leads to faster growth, better root development, and higher crop yields.
• Stress Tolerance: VAM helps plants endure abiotic stresses like drought, salinity, and heavy metal toxicity.
• Disease Resistance: The presence of the fungus helps deter root-pathogenic fungi and nematodes from infecting the plant.
• Soil Health: The fungal hyphae secrete glomalin, a glycoprotein that glues soil particles together, improving soil structure and preventing erosion.

Crops suitability:

• Cereals & Millets: Rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, and barley.
• Vegetables: Tomatoes, potatoes, onions, carrots, and eggplants.
• Pulses & Oilseeds: Soybeans, chickpeas, lentils, and groundnuts.
• Cash, Fiber & Sugar Crops: Cotton, sugarcane, and tobacco.
• Fruits & Orchards: Citrus, apples, grapes, bananas, and papaya.
• Plantation & Spices: Coffee, tea, cardamom, black pepper, and rubber.

Commonly used for (Insect / Diseases): AGRIVENTURE MYCOMAN serves as a natural biocontrol agent that boosts the plant's immune system against specific soil-borne diseases and root-feeding pests.

Mode of entry: Appressorium Formation, Penetration and Cortical Colonization.

Mode of action:

How the Symbiosis Works:

• Nutrient Exchange: Plants supply the fungi with sugars and carbon produced via photosynthesis. In return, the fungal network acts as an extension of the root system, greatly expanding the surface area to absorb immobile nutrients from the soil.
• Nutrient Uptake: VAM is highly effective at mobilizing and delivering phosphorus, zinc, copper, and sulfur to the host plant.

Mode of application: Seed Treatment, Seedling Root Dip, Direct Soil Application

Dose: 1kg per 1 acre
