Mikozen - Mycorrhiza GR - IFFCO-MC
Mikozen | Mycorrhiza GR Biofertiliser by IFFCO-MC
A granular mycorrhizal biofertiliser based on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The manufacturer directs broadcast application with placement that allows the product to reach the crop’s root zone.
Product type: Mycorrhiza GR, an AMF-based granular biofertiliser.
Placement: Broadcast with access to the root zone, not as a foliar spray.
Manufacturer rate: 4 kg/acre; verify the crop’s suitability and current pack directions.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🌱Root-associated support: AMF form an association with suitable crop roots.
- 💧Water uptake support: The manufacturer describes improved access to water through the mycorrhizal root association.
- 🌿Nutrient uptake support: Designed to support nutrient absorption alongside normal crop management.
- 🪴Granular placement: The dry granules are applied to soil by broadcasting.
- 📋Practical application focus: Root-zone access and suitable soil moisture are explicit manufacturer requirements.

How It Works
Mikozen is intended to support a beneficial association between AMF and compatible plant roots. It is a biological soil input, not a pesticide or a complete substitute for the crop’s fertiliser requirement.
- Place near the roots: Broadcast as directed and ensure the granules can reach the root zone.
- Support the association: Use suitable soil moisture conditions so the biological input can interact with compatible roots.
- Maintain crop nutrition: Continue appropriate soil, water and nutrient management; do not assume guaranteed establishment or yield gains.
Crops & Plant Support
IFFCO-MC describes the scope broadly as agricultural and horticultural crops, without a species-by-species list. That broad description is not a guarantee that every plant forms a useful AMF association; confirm your crop and placement on the current pack.

Application Guide
The manufacturer provides the following general broadcast rate. Confirm crop suitability, timing and any application restrictions on the current Mikozen pack before use.
The rate is product mass per land area. It is not a seed-treatment rate, foliar concentration or irrigation-water concentration.
Recommended crops and application
| Crop / use | Placement | Product dose | Application method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compatible crops | Root zone Suitable soil moisture |
4 kg / acre | Broadcast Follow label placement |
The manufacturer permits mixing with soil or organic and inorganic fertilisers during application. This does not establish compatibility with every fertiliser product, concentration, pesticide or storage mixture.
Species-specific suitability, application stage, repeat frequency and a mixing recipe are not supplied in the official summary. No fixed interval or universal compatibility rule is invented.
Do not convert the 4 kg/acre rate to a per-tree, per-seed or per-litre dose without label directions. Strain identity, infective-propagule count and certification claims are not inferred from another retailer’s listing.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Check the pack and crop: Verify the biofertiliser identity, crop suitability, expiry and storage directions.
- Plan root-zone access: Apply the granules so they reach the crop’s root zone; surface placement alone is not assumed sufficient.
- Use suitable soil moisture: Follow the manufacturer’s moisture requirement and label timing without inventing an irrigation schedule.
- Keep inputs compatible: Use only suitable label-directed mixing and placement. Do not assume compatibility with fungicides or every other crop input.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mikozen?It is a granular AMF-based mycorrhizal biofertiliser, not a foliar pesticide.
What rate does the manufacturer give?The published rate is 4 kg of granules per acre by broadcast application, with access to the root zone.
Can I spray it on leaves?The verified application method is broadcast soil application. No foliar spray programme is established here.
Is it suitable for every crop?The manufacturer uses a broad agricultural and horticultural description. Confirm that your crop is suitable for this AMF product and follow the current pack.
Can it replace all fertiliser?No. It supports a root association and nutrient uptake; do not replace balanced crop nutrition based on an unverified savings or yield claim.
Safety & Disclaimer
