Trichoderma Viride Fungicide is an eco-friendly biological fungicide containing spores and conidia

of Mycoparasitic Fungi Trichoderma Viride, having 2 X 10 8 colony forming units (CFU) per gram.
Trichoderma when introduced along with seeds or at root zone protect the seedlings from attack by
soil borne pathogens that cause root / collar / stem rots, wilts, damping offs, leaf blights spots etc.
and promote healthy growth in early stages of crop.

Vigorous growth of biological Trichoderma Viride Fungicide overshadows the pathogenic fungi, which
are overpowered and prevented from infecting the plants. Before pathogens attempt infection via
germinating seeds or roots they can be suppressed and controlled by various methods.

They have evolved numerous mechanisms for both attack of other fungi and for enhancing
plant and root growth such as :
Mycoparasitism, Antibiosis, Competition for nutrients or space, Tolerance to stress through enhanced
root and plant development, Solubilization and sequestration of inorganic nutrients, induced
resistance Inactivation of the pathogens enzymes by secreting certain plant growth stimulating
substance.
