MicroMagic Vs Jeevamrut Approach: A Smarter Way to Boost Soil Fertility

For generations, farmers have relied on traditional methods like Jeevamrut to enrich their soil and boost crop health. However, modern advancements have brought in more structured solutions like MicroMagic, which offers consistency and efficiency. Let’s compare these two approaches and understand which one makes more sense for farmers aiming for high efficiency and predictable results. […]
R-Jaal, your go to partner for climate resilience

Agriculture today faces an unprecedented challenge—climate change. Extreme weather events such as prolonged droughts and heavy rains threaten crop yields and soil health. To combat these challenges, farmers need resilient solutions that work in harmony with nature. R-Jaal, our advanced mycorrhizal formulation, is the key to building climate-resilient crops by leveraging the power of mycorrhiza. […]
Masters of Word Wood Web (WWW) – Mycorrhiza

When we think of the internet, we imagine a vast, interconnected network of communication. But did you know that nature has had its own internet long before humans even existed? Beneath our feet lies a hidden world of connections—an underground network that plants use to communicate, share resources, and defend themselves. This fascinating system is […]
Silica: The Missing Element in Your Crop Nutrition

When we talk about plant nutrition, most discussions revolve around Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K), along with essential micronutrients like Zinc, Iron, and Boron. However, one crucial element often gets overlooked – Silica (Si). Despite being the second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, its importance in plant health and productivity is […]
Mohini – arresting the pests with love

In the world of pest control, brute force often takes center stage—harsh chemicals, aggressive tactics, and a blanket approach that affects more than just the pests. But what if we told you there’s a way to attract, capture, and control pests with elegance and precision? Meet Mohini, the ultimate blend of science and nature, designed […]
Why Some Lures Don’t Work: The Science Behind Effective Pest Trapping

Lures play a crucial role in pest control, especially in pheromone-based traps. However, many farmers and growers experience inconsistent results, leading to doubts about their effectiveness. The problem often lies not in the pheromone itself but in how it is released, its susceptibility to oxidation, and poor calibration for environmental variations. Let’s break down why […]
Why mass trapping of pests is a bad idea in agriculture

Agriculture has always battled insect pests, and farmers often look for convenient ways to manage them. Mass trapping techniques like light traps, solar light traps, sticky traps, and other large-scale trapping methods may seem effective at first glance, but they come with serious unintended consequences. While these methods capture large numbers of insects, they do […]
Exploring Climate Smart Agriculture

Climate Smart Agriculture has seen leveraging various technologies – Satellite imaging, weather data, machine learning, artificial intelligence, mathematical modelling, statistical methods etc. to bring in some predictiveness to agriculture. In last couple of years, I have been interacting with various players in the field including Fasal, Hydenmet, Mapmycrop, Farmneed, Agricolus, Onesoil, Davis Instruments, Earth Network, […]
‘Mitrasena Approach’ vs ‘Natural Farming’

Mitrasena highly appreciates the efforts taken by farmers for natural / organic / sustainable farming. It requires huge passions, a steep learning curve, on-farm efforts and a few years of patience for transition. Effectively it gets traction when farmers meet some of the following criteria are met: Have a good financial support […]
Plant Protection Embedded in Plant Health

In the article “Efficient Photosynthesis: The Cornerstone of Life,” we explored various strategies to boost sugar production in plants and the creation of a silica wall beneath the cuticles to enhance plant defense mechanisms. Plants transport nutrient-rich sap through specialized tissues known as xylem and phloem. This sap is essential for their growth and […]
