How It Works: Mode of Action
Nisarga contains a beneficial fungus that helps manage the plant diseases listed on the supplied pack.
- Competition for nutrients: The beneficial fungus competes with harmful fungi for nutrients.
- Growth-suppressing substances: It also produces substances that slow the growth of harmful fungi.
- Enzyme action: It produces enzymes that can break down the outer walls of harmful fungi.
This does not make every cause of wilting treatable or guarantee that a badly damaged plant will recover.
Target Crops & Pests
The manufacturer describes seed- and soil-borne diseases such as root rot, damping-off and fungal wilts in vegetables, fruit crops, field crops, pulses and plantation crops. It specifically mentions Ganoderma wilt in arecanut and coconut. These references do not establish every possible crop-and-disease combination.
| Crop | Disease reference |
|---|---|
| Arecanut |
|
| Coconut |

These manufacturer references do not assign the methods below to every crop or disease. Use only the crop-and-disease directions permitted on your supplied label.
Dosage & Application Guide
The table gives the manufacturerâs general methods for this formulation. Use a method only when your supplied label permits it for your crop and the disease being treated. Keep the product amount, water or carrier and method from the same row together.
Powder Rates by Method, Water & Carrier Basis
On small screens, swipe the table to see all columns.
| Method | Product amount | Water or carrier | How and when to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seed treatment | 20 g for each 1 kg of seed | 10 ml water for each 1 kg of seed | Coat the seed evenly. Follow the pack for the treatment sequence and sowing instructions. |
| Soil application | 2â5 kg per acre | 2 metric tonnes of farmyard manure per acre | Mix and broadcast over the field before planting. Do not replace the stated manure quantity with 100 kg. |
| Nursery-bed treatment | 50 g per square metre | Follow the pack for the carrier and method | Use as the separate area-based nursery method. Do not add the drench recipe on top of it. |
| Nursery-bed drench | 1 kg | 100 litres of water | Mix and drench the nursery bed. The manufacturer does not give the bed area covered by this mixture; follow the pack for how much to apply. |
| Seedling root dip | 100 g | 1 litre of water | Dip the roots for 10â15 minutes before transplanting. No fixed area or number of seedlings is given. |
The two nursery methods are alternatives, not a combined treatment. The 50 g rate is per square metre; the 1 kg in 100 litres recipe does not specify a treated area. Keep powder methods separate from liquid drip directions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Choose and measure: Use the powder amount in the matching row. Seed treatment, soil use, the two nursery options and root dipping have different quantities and treatment bases. Do not add a leaf-spray or drip treatment using these powder directions.
- Timing and repeats: The manufacturer favours early use so the beneficial fungus has time to establish. Soil application is before planting; root dipping is for 10â15 minutes before transplanting. Follow your cropâs supplied label for any repeats rather than repeating seed treatment or root dipping on a general calendar.
- Mixing restrictions: Do not mix Nisarga with fungicides or harsh chemicals. Obtain product-specific advice for other mixtures and for any required gap between treatments; confirm the gap for the exact products before treatment.
- Powder only: These directions are for 1.5% WP powder. Do not substitute 5% LF liquid rates or use liquid drip instructions for the powder. A filtering step does not establish that powder is suitable for drip irrigation.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use this powder through drip irrigation?The manufacturerâs drip direction is for liquid Nisarga. Do not transfer that direction to this powder or assume that filtering makes it suitable.
2. How much manure is stated for soil use?The manufacturer states 2â5 kg powder mixed with 2 metric tonnes of farmyard manure for one acre before planting. It does not state 100 kg manure for this method.
3. Are the nursery methods added together?No. The manufacturer gives an area-based option of 50 g per square metre, or a drench made with 1 kg in 100 litres of water. The drench has no stated area coverage.
4. Can I mix it with fungicides?No. Do not mix with fungicides or harsh chemicals. Obtain advice for any required gap between separate treatments.

Wear the protective equipment stated on the pack. Avoid breathing dust or spray mist and avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wash after handling.
Store in the original closed, labelled container under the conditions stated on the pack. Protect from heat and direct sunlight, and check the batch and expiry date before use.
