Pseudomonas is characterized by their twin properties, i.e., disease suppression and plant growth promotion. Pseudomonas are antagonistic to several root pathogenic fungi, bacteria, nematodes and several foliar fungal and bacterial pathogens. 

• Highly effective against the fungal diseases caused by Phytophthora sp., Pythium sp., Sclerotium sp., Rhizoctonia sp., and Fusarium. Control of fungal diseases of rice, quick wilt and pollu diseases of black pepper, foot rot and leaf spot diseases of betel vine, fungal diseases of vanilla, capsule rot and chenthal diseases of cardamom, spot rot of ginger and turmeric, different fungal and viral diseases of vegetables etc.
• Pseudomonas is mainly used for direct soil application, seed treatment and foliar spraying. Apply in wet soil as basal dose along with organic manure and refresh it periodically along with organic manure. The normal dosage of Pseudomonas is 20g per plant.
• Seed treatment:Spray the seeds with a sticky/gummy solution like starch solution/jaggery solution, so that the surface of the seed will be wet. Take Pseudomonas in a tray (@25g/1kg of seeds), add the wet seeds to this and gently mix by rolling the seeds in the powder so that the seeds will be coated uniformly. Dry the seeds in shade for 30 minutes and sow within a day.For seedlings, dip the seedlings in a slurry of Pseudomonas (make a 5-10% slurry in sticky solution) for 5-10 minutes before planting
• Soil Application: Pseudomonas can be used for soil application after mixing with appropriate amount of Super Organic Manure or Farm Yard Manure @ 20kg /Ha.
• Foliar Spray: Mix 1kg Pseudomonas in 50 litres of water and spray on the foliage during evening hours.

DOSAGE & METHOD OF APPLICATION

Pseudomonas is mainly used for direct soil application, seed treatment and foliar spraying. Apply in wet soil as basal dose along with organic manure and refresh it periodically along with organic manure. The normal dosage of Pseudomonas is 20g per plant.

Seed treatment: Spray the seeds with a sticky / gummy solution like starch solution or jaggery solution, so that the surface of the seed will be wet. Take Pseudomonas in a tray (@ 25 g/1 kg of seeds), add the wet seeds to this and gently mix by rolling the seeds in the powder so that the seeds will be coated uniformly. Dry the seeds in shade for 30 minutes and sow within a day. For seedlings, dip the seedlings in a slurry of Pseudomonas ( make a
5 – 10% slurry in sticky solution) for 5 – 10 minutes before planting.

Soil Application: Pseudomonas can be used for soil application after mixing with appropriate amount of Super Organic Manure or Farm Yard Manure @ 20kg /Ha.

Foliar Spray: Mix 1kg Pseudomonas in 50 litres of water and spray on the foliage during evening hours.
