About | We are a research institute with particular focus on developing new environment-friendly fertilizer materials. We have developed novel micronutrient compounds that are water insoluble but contain micronutrients in plant available form. These are one type of slow-release materials and are termed bio-release fertilizers. Dosages required with the bio-release micronutrient fertilizers are 1 / 5 to 1 / 10 of the usual requirement. Crop response to these fertilizers is very good. They are suitable for all types of crops and soils. We have developed bio-release (slow-release) fertilizers of single micrinutrients: zinc, iron, manganese, copper, boron and molybdenum. We have also developed combination compounds: iron-manganese, iron-manganese-copper, zinc-iron-manganese, zinc-iron-manganese-copper. All these are patented technologies and are available for licensing. |
