Agrios

Agrios is a unique formula for plan nutrition and Protection. It is a novelty in the Bio stimulant production technique. It is a nontoxic & organic form of naturally occurring plant growth nutrients resulting from seaweed. This Innovation in plant nutrition research is a unique formula produced by Agromed in scientifically controlled conditions to give the optimum output.

In natural form it is composed of 5 major components:

  • Cytokinins
  • Auxin precursors
  • Enzymes
  • Hydrolysed protein complexes
  • Betaines

along with naturally occurring nutrients
The deficit of any of these compounds at fundamental stages influences the plant growth adversely and thus results in low productivity.

Dosages

Agrios(Foliar application) 500 ml per hectare in dilution with sufficient quantity of water depending on the canopy and spray equipment.

Application

  • Applied @ 25 kg per hectare at 7 DAT/first application of fertilizers.
  • Applied @ 25 Kg per hectare at 25 DAT/top dressing of fertilizers.
  • Agrios comes in a tailored formulation for vegetables, fruits, plantation crops, lawns and gardens as well.

Effect

Enhanced Soil Microbial activity

Nutrients present in the product act as food to beneficial microbes thereby increasing the microbial activity.

Reduced root damage

Beneficial microbes compete with fungal pathogen. This will reduce the activity of the fungal pathogen and thus reduce the chance of root damage.

Increased Chlorophyll level

Betaines present in Agrios reduce natural damage to the photosynthetic process, hence maintaining the chlorophyll content. This helps in keeping the leaves in good health and greener condition.

Plant Defense Mechanism

Stimulants present in the product promote root and shoot growth. These roots can absorb greater amount of available nutrients from the soil. Healthy roots and the plants reduce the damage and help in improving the natural defense mechanism of the plant.

Stress tolerance

Agrios applied plants tolerate greater levels of cold and other kind of stress that reduces the amount of damage.

Timing of Application

Soaking seeds or Soil drenching

Better germination and faster surfacing of the plant. Helps in increased root development and increased soil microbial activity.

Root treatment

Dipping the roots while transplanting helps in overcoming transplanting shock and leads to better establishment of the roots & efficient nutrient uptake.

On young and emerging plants

Stimulates growth process and reduces any growth constraints.Better organization of the plants.

On established plants

Plants will have a better defensive mechanism against pests, diseases, drought, frost or water logging. Better retention of flowers and fruits. Increase in yields of quality produce.

Benefits of Agrios

  • Increased utilization of nutrients and moisture
  • Improved germination
  • Stronger early root and shoot growth
  • Better retention of fruits and flowers
  • Greater resistance to pests and diseases
  • Better overwintering
  • Improved grain-fill/tiller/tuber development
  • Potential increase in yield/oil content
  • Improved quality
  • Regular use improves tree health and productivity in perennial crops

Why Agrios

It is a bio technological innovation in the biofertiliser technique manufactured by a special fermentation process

Derived from sea cost where there is sunshine for 24 hrs during summer. This condition helps in higher photosynthetic activity

Growth in cold condition where plant synthesizes more cytokinins

Care is taken to maintain the original nutrients. Unique manufacturing process efficiently breaks down all the cells of the seaweed raw material to release their nutrients. This enables to extract maximum nutrients and beneficial compounds

A Multipurpose Product

Agrios also comes in a granular form.

Advantages of Agrios granules:

  • Ensures that plant can benefit fully from fertilizer application
  • Improves tillering and rooting, without giving unwarranted weak leaf growth
  • Healthier deeper-rooted plants stay greener for long in drought condition

Crop Spectrum

Agrios has its application over crops ranging from cereals, vegetables, fruits, fibre crops, floriculture, green house to non crop segment like lawns, indoor plants, golf turf, etc.

Compatibility

Compatible with most of the commonly used fertilizers, insecticides and fungicides except those which are of highly alkaline nature. However, it should not be applied with growth retardants or herbicides.

Toxicity

Being a biologically derived product, it is non-toxic to humans, animals and to the environment.

Shelf Life

Agrios is stable as long as five years at normal room temperature under normal storage conditions. Agrios is being marketed in countries of South asia, Far East, Middle East, Europe and Africa.
