Mycro-Tec Lockout

Description

Proprietary 2 Species Biological Exudate Liquid

Beneficial Microbial lnnoculant

There are a number of species of microorganisms that have been identified as being effective in helping to control a broad spectrum of diseases. Two that have been researched in depth, and have been proven to assist in combating disease are:

• Trichoderma spp. eg T. harzianum

• Bacillus spp. eg B. amyloliquefaciens

These potentially beneficial microorganisms often produce metabolites (natural chemicals) that assist plants to grow as well as inhibiting the growth of other disease causing microbes. These beneficial microorganisms live in close association with plants root systems and produce compounds that solubilise fertilisers as well as protecting their own immediate environment (the rhizosphere) from invasion by plant disease-causing organisms. The addition of synergistic species to the soil works far better than the addition of a single species and there needs to be many of them to compete with the disease population already present.

The colonisation of the rhizosphere in a Tree Crop environment has proved difficult because of: High Nutrient Removal, Orchard Traffic, Chemical Weed Control, Insecticide Use and an Intensive Fertiliser Fungicidal Disease Management Program.
