This nano-antimicrobial solution, targeting the root zone, helps control soil-borne diseases.
Benefits
Reduces root diseases
Promotes healthy root development
Prevents yield loss
Increases plant resilience
Root-dipping nanofertilizers act like a shield against external pathogens while providing a systemic solution that stimulates root development from within and corrects copper deficiency.
How does it work?
Disruption of Cell Membrane: Copper nanoparticles electrostatically bind to the negatively charged membranes of bacterial and fungal cells, disrupting their structure, creating pores, and inactivating the cell.
Oxidative Stress (ROS): Nano copper generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside microorganisms, damaging DNA and proteins.
Copper and Zinc Synergy (Cu+Zn): The combined use of copper and zinc regulates plant enzyme activity while creating a stronger "dual shield" against bacterial and fungal diseases.
How to use it?
Watering and Pre-Planting: Before planting, seedling roots are dipped in a 0.1% - 0.5% nano copper solution. This protects seedlings from root rot, fungal and bacterial diseases in the soil (Fusarium, Pythium, etc.).
Root Development: Copper helps roots grow deeper and explore a larger soil volume, enabling easier access to water and nutrients.
Nutrient Uptake: By increasing cell membrane fluidity, it allows the plant to more easily absorb immobilized phosphate, sulfate, and potassium in the soil.
