Biovita Plant Nutrient

February 16, 2026

Biovita Plant Nutrient: Seaweed-Based Support for Healthier Crops Modern agriculture is increasingly exploring natural and bio-based inputs that complement conventional fertilization. Among these, seaweed extracts have gained significant attention for their role in improving plant vigor and resilience. Biovita Plant Nutrient , derived from Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed, is one such supportive input used in crop nutrition programs. Seaweed extracts are known to contain naturally occurring compounds such as cytokinins, auxins, amino acids, and micronutrients. These compounds can support physiological processes in plants, including root development and nutrient uptake efficiency. Rather than acting as fertilizers, they function as biostimulant-type inputs , helping plants perform better under both normal and stress conditions. Why seaweed-based nutrition matters Crops frequently face environmental stress such as drought, temperature fluctuations, transplant shock, and nutrient im...

Marino Plant Nutrient

February 14, 2026

Marino Plant Nutrient: Supporting Healthier and More Resilient Crops Modern farming increasingly recognizes that crop productivity is not only about fertilizers supplying NPK (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium). Crops also need supportive nutrition that enhances physiological efficiency, root growth, and stress tolerance. This is where plant nutrients and biostimulant-type products like Marino Plant Nutrient play an important role. Marino Plant Nutrient is designed to support overall plant vigor and metabolic activity. Such formulations are often derived from marine or natural sources and are used to complement conventional fertilization programs rather than replace them. They help plants perform better under both normal and stress conditions. Why supportive plant nutrition matters Plants face multiple stresses—heat, moisture imbalance, transplant shock, and nutrient uptake challenges. Supportive nutrition can help: Improve root development Enhance nutrient absorption ef...

Budget 2026: A New Direction for Indian Agriculture

February 07, 2026

Budget 2026: A New Direction for Indian Agriculture India’s Budget 2026 signals a forward-looking approach toward agricultural growth, sustainability, and farmer income enhancement. With a mix of technology adoption and sector-specific support, the policy direction reflects an effort to modernize Indian farming while strengthening rural livelihoods. One of the notable highlights is the focus on AI-driven agricultural support under Bharat Vistar AI . Digital tools and data-based advisories can help farmers make better decisions on crop planning, pest control, irrigation, and market timing. When used responsibly, AI can reduce risk and improve productivity. The livestock and dairy sector also receives attention, recognizing its importance in rural income diversification. Dairy often provides steady cash flow for smallholders, and improved infrastructure and services can make it more profitable. Similarly, the fisheries sector is seen as a high-growth area. Support for fisheri...

World Wetland Day

February 01, 2026

Worlds Wetlands Day (Youtube) World Wetlands Day: Where Biodiversity Meets Food Security Wetlands are among the most valuable yet often overlooked ecosystems on our planet. From marshes and mangroves to lakes, floodplains, and peatlands, wetlands play a critical role in sustaining both nature and human life. World Wetlands Day, observed every year on 2nd February, reminds us of the urgent need to conserve and restore these ecosystems. Wetlands act as natural water filters. They trap sediments, absorb pollutants, and improve water quality before it reaches rivers, lakes, and groundwater systems. For farming communities, this function is especially important because clean and stable water sources directly affect crop productivity and soil health. Another major benefit of wetlands is flood regulation. By absorbing excess rainwater and releasing it slowly, wetlands reduce the intensity of floods and protect nearby farmland and settlements. In climate-vulnerable regions, this natur...

BAVISTIN (Carbendazim 50% WP): Curative Fungicide for Reliable Crop Protection Fungal diseases are one of the most common reasons behind yield reduction in Indian agriculture, especially during humid weather and cloudy conditions. Diseases like leaf spot, powdery mildew, anthracnose, fruit rot (early stage), blight support and wilt suppression can attack crops across vegetables, fruits, and field crops. In such situations, farmers need a solution that not only prevents infection but can also control disease once it begins. BAVISTIN® (Carbendazim 50% WP) is a widely used systemic fungicide from the benzimidazole group , known for its curative + preventive action. Its active ingredient, Carbendazim , has the chemical name Methyl benzimidazol-2-yl carbamate with molecular formula C₉H₉N₃O₂ . Bavistin How BAVISTIN works Unlike contact fungicides that stay only on the leaf surface, BAVISTIN moves inside the plant through xylem transport . It controls fungi by stopping their growth...

Trichostar (Bio-fertiliser)

January 18, 2026

TRICHOSTAR (Trichoderma viride 1.5% WP): Natural Root Protection for Healthier Crops Soil-borne fungal diseases are one of the biggest hidden threats in farming. Problems like damping off, root rot, collar rot, stem rot, and seedling blight can reduce plant survival, weaken growth, and finally lower yield. The biggest challenge is that these diseases start below the soil surface—often before symptoms become visible. TRICHOSTAR (Trichoderma viride 1.5% WP) is an eco-friendly biofungicide/biocontrol agent that helps manage soil and root fungal diseases naturally. Unlike chemical fungicides, TRICHOSTAR does not contain a chemical molecule—its strength comes from living beneficial spores of Trichoderma viride , a naturally occurring soil fungus. Trichostar Trasco How TRICHOSTAR works TRICHOSTAR protects crops through multiple biological mechanisms: Mycoparasitism: Directly attacks harmful fungi like Fusarium, Pythium, Rhizoctonia, and Sclerotium Competition: Colonizes the root...
