High-concentration mycorrhizal fungi materials supply phosphorus and moisture to crop roots! Promotes growth and improves quality.
Registration for Organic JAS Table 1 suitable materials is complete! Please try the safe mycorrhizal fungi for organic farming and environmentally friendly agriculture.
Featured in the agricultural and gardening specialized web media "AGRI PICK"! ◆ Eight effects of mycorrhizal fungi | Differences from rhizobia, etc. ◆ Introduction of four domestic cases and two overseas cases ~ Safely and efficiently activate crops with high-concentration mycorrhizal fungi ~ "Rootella" is a mycorrhizal inoculant from Groundwork, a top manufacturer of mycorrhizal fungi in Israel. It is a non-GMO mycorrhizal fungus, a native and safe species in Japan. Achieved high concentration through unique technology! 〇 Strengths of Rootella ・High-concentration mycorrhizal fungi Achieved a concentration of 2,500 to 167,000 propagules/g, 10 to 100 times higher than competitors. Inoculating a small amount increases the symbiotic rate in the crop root zone. ・Diverse application methods Rich application methods due to multiple shape grades. Granular type: Mixing with soil during sowing and seedling stages, or applying to planting holes and roots at transplanting. Fine powder type: Water-diluted spraying during sowing, seedling stages, or on field beds, and seed coating. Wettable type: Seed treatment. ・Natural mycorrhizal fungi Only handling mycorrhizal fungi produced from non-GMO natural host plants and environments. Registration completed for materials compliant with Organic JAS Appendix 1 (Organic JAS Material Evaluation Council)! Can be used in organic farming as well.
basic information
Mycorrhizal fungi are fungi that have existed on Earth for 400 million years and form a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. It is said that over 90% of vascular plants on Earth form a symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizal fungi. These fungi grow within the plant roots, extending their hyphae into the soil to absorb nutrients (especially phosphorus) and water, thereby activating and promoting healthy growth in plants. Benefits of using mycorrhizal fungi: - Increased yield and improved quality: Efficient absorption of nutrients and water allows for high establishment rates of seedlings and seeds, enabling growth in soils with suboptimal pH levels and salinity, as well as low fertility. - Savings on fertilizers (especially phosphorus): The excessive use of phosphorus fertilizers has become a global issue due to phosphorus resource shortages. Using mycorrhizal fungi can reduce the amount of fertilizer needed, leading to cost savings. About Groundwork: Groundwork, based in Israel, is a leading manufacturer of mycorrhizal fungi products. Despite 60% of its land being desert, Israel is an advanced agricultural country with a food supply rate of over 90%. Through 30 years of research and development, it has established a unique high-concentration mycorrhizal fungi production technology (non-GMO).
