Proradix WG (liqiud treatment) - the biological plant strengtheners for treating seed potatoes
- Increases the quality and yield of marketable products
- Increases the yield in the desired fraction
- Improves the uniformity
- Reduces tuber deformation and hollow hearts
- Increase the resistance to soil-borne pathogens such as Stem-Phytophthora (late blight), Erwinia und Rhizoctonia solani (Rhizoctonia canker) over the entire growth period
- Can be applied anywhere - also in combination with chemical fungicides
Protection that also grows for stable high quality
Proradix WG contains the soil bacterium Pseudomonas sp. Proradix (DSMZ 13134),
after application it populates the roots. The bacterium provides protection and an optimal water and nutrient uptake through various impact mechanisms.
Simultaneously, the bacteria on the roots multiply and grow with the new roots and tubers. So the protection continues throughout the entire vegetation period. Resulting in high quality in the desired fraction.
Quality and yield increase thanks to various impact mechanisms
The Pseudomonas-Strain used in Proradix WG works as following:
- It activates the plant’s own resistance mechanism. (Resistance induction)
- It competes with soil-borne pathogens for root exudates and biosphere and comes through
- It produces a very potent iron-chelate (Siderophor)
- It reinforces the root’s cell wall
Thereby, a healthy and differentiated root system forms which help the tubers grow consistently. The amount of too small, over large, tangled-up or hollow tubers is reduced - the fraction improved.
Can be applied anywhere - also in combination with chemical fungicides
Proradix WG can be used in water protection areas without worry and is also authorized for use in ecological cultivation.
Proradix WG is also suitable for integrated cultivation, because applying it together with other chemical fungicides (apart from products bearing copper and bactericide agents) causes no problems.
