What is BRIXMOR PLUS?

•  Brixmor Plus mainly contains 10% Boron which is complexed with an organic compound Ethanolamine that helps in the uptake & translocation of nutrients within plants.
•  Its supplementation enhances the uptake of nutrients in the crop.
•  Brixmor Plus is quickly absorbed & assimilated by the crop through leaves, shoots, roots & reproductive parts.
•  Boron is very essential for the optimum growth, development, yield & quality of crops & is considered to be a “Starter Element” for all the metabolic activities in Horticultural & Vegetable Crops.
•  It is the second most deficient micronutrient after Zinc & is required for the growth of the tips. 
•  Brixmor plus also contains Molybdenum (Mo) & Copper (Cu). Molybdenum metabolises Nitrogen efficiently in the Crop while Copper increases the disease resistance capacity of the Crop & protects it against the fungal & bacterial infestation. 

What are the benefits of BRIXMOR PLUS?

•  Brixmor Plus increases sugar translocation from Leaves to End Produce & Roots. This increases the Brix (sugar) levels, uniform fruit size & the quality aspects of the end produce.
•  It converts Nitrate Nitrogen efficiently into a functional & usable amine form & controls the excessive vegetative growth.
• It promotes Calcium mobility, Cell wall formation, Pollination & overall growth of the crop. 
•  It increases Phosphorus & Potassium availability to the crop. It is required for growth of roots & buds, optimum formation & development, flowers, fruits & seed setting.
• It improves disease resistance of the crop & develops roots to withstand biotic stress (disease and pest) & abiotic stress (drought etc.) 

Why BRIXMOR PLUS?

 It helps to prevents problems such as :

Root Rot	Potato Blight & hollow heart	Fruit Cracking
Blossom End Rot	Short Berry	Berry Cracking
Flower & Fruit Dropping	Yellowing Of Tips	Partial Grain / Seed Filling

How to use BRIXMOR PLUS?

DOSAGE & RECOMMENDATIONS OF USE :- 

 Brixmor Plusis applied through Spray & Drip Application to be started before flower bud initiation and to be continued till maturity.

Foliar : 1.0 to 1.5 ml per litre water for grape crop. 

2.0 to 2.5 ml per litre water for all other crops

Drip : 500 to 750 ml per acre 

2 to 3 applications can be done at an interval of 12 to 15 days. 

How to maintain Crop health under Excessive Rain conditions?

Delay in arrival of Monsoon led to a large rain deficit upto end-June, but heavy rains since mid of July erased the shortfall. There is an uneven distribution of rains this year which has badly affected the crops like Cereals, Pulses, Cotton, Groundnut, Soybean, Vegetables, Ginger, Turmeric, Banana, etc. There have been excessive rains at many places. 

Excessive rain creates water logging conditions which results in :

1. Poor aeration in soils as the air spaces in the soil get filled with water
2. Poor root development. 
3. Over dilution of nutrients 
4. Leaching of soils nutrients 

Reduces nutrient uptake by the crops resulting into multiple deficiencies on crop.

Increase in diseases & pests attack. Crop wilts & dies in extreme wet conditions.

Cloudy weather reduces photosynthesis 

Under such conditions, it becomes necessary to make save the crop and make its roots & leaves active & gradually make it capable to absorb the supplemented nutrients.

2 spray supplementations & 1 soil application becomes very effective in improving these conditions thereby resulting into healthy root & crop growth. Also wherever necessary it is advised to dig channels to drain out excess water from the field.

We suggest the following : Spray Application – ( light sprays )

After the above 2 sprays & after Soil moisture has reduced apply

If root / stem rot or wilting is observed, chemical fungicide / bactericide or Bio fungicide plus Bactericide : Triwilt – 1 Litre + Posidon – 1 Litre per Acre to be given through Drenching / Drip.

Anamorf and Celvert

Crops must be supplemented with Integrated Nutrient Management for increased yield and quality. In the absence of Integrated Nutrition, Crop growth and Soil conditions are adversely affected resulting in secretion of metabolites which attract pests / insects. This also reduces the inherent disease resistance capacity of the crop. The use of Chemical Pesticides / Insecticides increases largely and results in killing of the beneficial microbes in the soil and further increases resistance of pests against these chemicals.

The major target pests / insects are Mealy Bug, Thrips, , White grubs, Jassids, Aphids, Scale insects, Mites Ticks and other sap sucking insects, root weevils, etc

• With its research and experience, the In-house Biological R & D DIVISION of Manshya
  Group has developed two Biological products with beneficial Fungal spps.
• These contain helpful microorganisms that naturally infect and kill insects and are designed to
  target specific pests.
• We provide a high spore count in these products which makes these products more effective
  and provide precise pest management.

Anamorf contains beneficial fungi – Beauveria bassiana
Celvert contains beneficial fungi – Verticilium lecanii
These Beneficial fungal spps. are registered under CIB for use as bio-control agents against wide range of plant insect pests.

Benefits –

• Are highly effective entomopathogenic fungus and effectively control the pests in economically important crop in agriculture.
• Function as a Plant Bio Stimulant
• Are rhizosphere colonizer which means they can enter the crop system as well as grow in the
  active root zone of the soil
• Establish a mutually beneficial symbiosis and promote plant growth
• Improve plant adaptability towards biotic and abiotic stress.
• Pest reduction leads to improved plant health and increase in crop productivity.

Mode of action :

After the application of Anamorf and Celvert through soil or spray on the crop, the microscopic spores of the fungi in the products come in contact with the body of an insect host.

The spores germinate get attached to the cuticle (shell/skin) of the insect and breaks it down with enzymes.

The microbes work as a parasite of insect pests.

They enters the hemolymph (the insect blood stream) and rapidly grow inside the host.

The fungal mycelia start absorbing the nutrients from the body fluid, kill the insect within few
days.

A white mold emerges from the cadaver and produces new spores inside the target pest as
shown below.

Application of Anamorf and Celvert is most effective when

• Humidity is high – Late afternoon or cloudy / rainy days
• At warm temperatures 64° – 85°F (18° – 29°C).

To be used proactively targeting younger insect larvae for better insect control.

CFU : Colony forming units – Powder :1×10⁸ Cells per g

Advisory Dose – Soil : 1 kg per acre, Spray : 5 g per litre water
Applications to be repeated if insect population is high. Adequate control can been seen in 6 – 14 days. Proper time of application to be focused. Anamorf and Celvert must be given together for pest control and reduction in infectivity.

CHELATED MICRONUTRIENTS

An Organic molecule known as Chelating agent such as Amino Acid, Humic acid, Sea weed extract or Synthetic agent EDTA selectively binds the metal ion in a protective grip. Cations (+ vely charged) mainly Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ca, Mg, etc are chelated. Chelates are required in a very low quantity as against Inorganic fertilisers.

Chelation process removes the positive charge from the cation allowing the negatively charged chelate to slide through the pores on the leaf and root surface making it easy to enter the crop system. Therefore the nutrients become completely available to the crop and there is no loss due to fixation or leaching.

Cultivating crops on the same piece of land continuously, supplementing the Crop with Imbalanced Fertiliser doses and ignoring the soil health decreases the Soil fertility and Productivity. So also the problems of poor soils are ignored, no efforts are made to improve them and even after increasing the NPK doses, Crop yields do not increase. However, the Cost of Crop Production goes up.

Imbalanced application of chemical fertilisers like Urea, DAP, etc. results in increase in the salt content of the soil and thereby the pH of the soil. The physical properties of the soil such as water holding capacity, structure, drainage, and texture deteriorates. There is also a decrease in the microbial count of the soil. The soils become compact and the fertility of the soil decreases. It becomes necessary to use Organic fertilizers to improve the above properties of the soil and improve the nutrient availability from the soil. But well-decomposed Organic Manure is not available in sufficient quantum. Also, only 20% – 25% phosphorus becomes available to the crop from the Phosphorus based chemical fertilizers given through the soil. Rest of the phosphorus gets fixed in the soil along with other nutrients and does not become available to the crop. This adversely affects the growth of the crop thereby the yield and the quality.

Considering all these aspects Manshya Marketing Pvt. Ltd., Pune has manufactured the product ‘Refille’. It is called ‘Green Chemistry Phosphorous Fertilizer’. It contains 10 % Organic Carbon and 8 % Phosphorus. It also provides other nutrients that increase the efficiency of ‘Refille’. Also, its organic Carbon and organic acids released by the roots make Phosphorus and other nutrients available to the crop that are fixed in the soil. Phosphorus in ‘Refille’ is more effective than phosphorus from chemical fertilizers available in the market.

Crops and the beneficial microorganisms in the soil continuously require organic carbon as a major source of energy as it plays an important role in the food production of the crop. Phosphorus is required for seed germination, root formation, in flowering stage of the crop and energy formation for various metabolic activities. Adequate supply of phosphorus leads to proper absorption of other nutrients from the soil and proper growth of the crop.

Our recommendation –

Soil supplementation of Refille @ 80 kg (2 bags) per acre 2 – 3 times a year, at the time of land preparation and at various crop growth stages.

Benefits of using Refille –

• 100% phosphorus in Refille is available to the crop and acts as an alternative to Phosphatic fertilizers like DAP, SSP, etc.
•  upplements Organic Carbon and Phosphorus.
• Due to its organic nature, it works very effectively in Alkaline soils.
• Improves Seed germination and Root growth.
• Increases the number and efficiency of useful microorganisms in the soil.
• By improving the chemical, physical and biological properties of the soil, fertility and productivity of the soil increases.
• Enhances the absorption of all nutrients from the soil.
• Due to the increase in soil fertility, phosphorus availability to the second crop is as efficient as it is to the first crop.
• Compatible with all chemical fertilizers and Zinc Sulphate.

Comparative Table – Single Super Phosphate / D.A.P. / Refille

USP of our Product – Why only Refille ?

• We use a very high quality of Organic base raw material and not a city waste or press mud.
• The Raw material Source of P that we add contains higher percentage of P₂O₅ of more than 30 % and contains very less impurities. This helps to maintain the Organic Carbon at optimum.
• We suggest not to granulate Refille because granulation will reduce the moisture content and thereby P₂O₅ and Organic Carbon content will also reduce.
