DISEASE MANAGEMENT

General Description

Aims to revolutionise plant disease protection through natural, sustainable methods. In the face of growing concerns about the environmental impact and long-term efficacy of chemical fungicides and bactericides, there is an urgent need for alternative solutions that are both effective and eco- friendly. Traditional chemical treatments can lead to soil degradation, harm beneficial microorganisms, and contribute to the development of resistant pathogen strains. As a result, farmers and growers are increasingly seeking natural methods to protect their crops while preserving environmental health.

This project focuses on developing formulations that leverage the powerful properties of botanical extracts and concentrated minerals. These natural ingredients are known for their ability to create an inhospitable environment for pathogens by altering the pH levels on plant surfaces and boosting the plant's own defence mechanisms. By preventing the growth and settlement of bacterial and fungal pathogens, thus promoting healthier plants and more resilient crops.

This project will involve extensive research and development, starting with the identification and testing of the most effective natural compounds. Laboratory studies will be followed by prototype development and rigorous field trials to ensure the formulations are practical and effective under real- world conditions. The goal is to provide farmers with reliable, sustainable disease protection solutions that reduce dependence on synthetic chemicals and support overall agricultural sustainability.

This project represents a critical step forward in the quest for sustainable agriculture, offering a viable alternative to chemical treatments. By focusing on natural ingredients and innovative formulations, this project aims to protect crops, enhance plant health, and promote a healthier ecosystem.
