Pheromone Impregnation Technology
NoMate pheromone system gives excellent control by depriving females from mating. NoMate Pheromones are semiochemicals emitted by living organisms to send messages to individuals of the same species.
Pheromones are the natural compounds that are created inside the body of an insect. The pheromones are chemically synthesized in the laboratory as required for different species of insects. These lures used to attract male insects into pheromone traps, thus stopping the mating of male and female insects. This system eliminates the chance of laying eggs and controls the insect population. System is a very much safer, environment friendly solution that benefits the people, planet and profits.

Microencapsulation Technology
Microencapsulation is a process in which tiny particles or droplets are surrounded by a coating to give small capsules, of many useful properties. In general, it is used to incorporate biofertilizers bacterial cells on a micro metric scale. Microencapsulation can also be used to enclose solids and liquids inside a micrometric wall made of hard or soft soluble film, in order to reduce dosing frequency and prevent the degradation of formulations.
​
In a relatively simple form, a microcapsule is a small sphere with a uniform wall around it. The material inside the microcapsule is referred to as the core, internal phase, or fill, whereas the wall is sometimes called a shell, coating, or membrane. Some materials like lipids and polymers, such as alginate, may be used as a mixture to trap the material of interest inside. Most microcapsules have pores with diameters between a few micrometres and a few millimetres.
The reasons for microencapsulation are countless. It is mainly used to increase the stability and life of the product being encapsulated, facilitate the manipulation of the product and control its liberation in an adequate time and space. In other cases, the objective is not to isolate the core completely but to control the rate at which it leaves the microcapsule, as in the controlled release of biofertilizers.
Microbes for Waste Decomposting
Our agriculture farm waste is made up of cellulose and lignin. Breakdown of cellulose and lignin, we need powerful decomposting microbes who can break down lignin and cellulose. DEBRISTA is a consortium of cellulose and lignin degrading microbes for composting farm wastes, green kitchen wastes, gardens and city wastes.
Application:
​
-
Use 250 gm of DEBRISTA for composting 1 ton of any waste. Make a slurry of Debrista & water and mix thoroughly with wastes. If the waste is too wet, use powder directly onto the wastes. Make heaps of treated wastes at a height of about 2 meter. Keep turning the heaps at an interval of 15 days to trigger aerobic composting faster. Maintain moisture level of 40% throughout composting. When compost gets cooled and soft it is an indication of compositing being over. It requires 250 gm of debrista powder for one ton or one acre debris. For spray application use 1 gm in 1 lit water. For soil application mix 250 gm with 50 kg soil or sand or organic manure and apply it in one acre area.
-
The technology is developed with technical collaboration with two premier institutes of BARC (Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai) and IARI (Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi).

Smart NUTRA NANO Potency
Smart Nutra is series of nano minerals micronutrient chelated with amino acid which has more and instant efficacy at lower dose.
All these nano nutrients quickly get absorbed and assimilated by the leaves. It gets translocated inside the plant system. Without these essential nutrients, plants may suffer from poor growth and reduced yields, making them essential for healthy, thriving crops. Smart series is fast fuel nutrient in potentized form of multiple nutrients which required very less quantity per acre area which is crucial for faster plant growth.
