Organic and Non-Toxic weedicide, herbicide, Reagent, Chemical to Control Water Hyacinth in Ponds and Lakes-Phytocide

Description

Most water bodies in India have been taken over by a plant species popularly called Water Hyacinth (Eichornia crassipes). One reason may be the termination of wastewater streams in those water bodies. When not controlled, water hyacinth covers lakes and ponds entirely, with its environmental invasiveness. This chokes waterways, dramatically
impacts water flow, blocks sunlight from reaching other aquatic plants, and starves the water of oxygen, often killing the fish, frogs, turtles and other aquatic animals. The plants also create a prime habitat for mosquitoes.

This species has rapidly spread throughout inland and coastal freshwater bays, lakes, and marshes and are a major hindrance to navigation as well. Traditionally, Water hyacinth has been removed physically, manually or by using specialized machinery. But since the plants reproduce both sexually and vegetatively, left-over seeds as well as portions of stems or roots result in the rapid proliferation of new plants and the infestation becomes as bad as it was before removal within three months!

PHYTOCIDE is a neem oil-based organic formulation that acts as a weedicide, herbicide, Chemical to Control Water Hyacinth in Ponds and Lakes. The active ingredient is Azadirachtin. It is food grade, non-toxic and safe for humans, animals and regular plants while being tough on weeds and harmful herbs. It kills the plants not through toxicity but by absorbing chlorophyll in the leaves and stems. Without chlorophyll, the plants cannot manufacture their own food and as a result, the tend to wither and die. This makes PHYTOCIDE extremely safe for human beings and aquatic creatures like fishes, frogs, tadpoles, etc. The safety of this reagent places it in a class above conventional inorganic weedicides, which are normally corrosive and extremely harmful to humans and animal life…

Usage of Phytocide weedicide Chemical to Control Water Hyacinth in Ponds and Lakes

• DILUTION : Dilution ratio- 1:20 ie 1 litre of PHYTOCIDE to be diluted in 20 litres of water.
• USAGE & SPREAD : 21 litres of the diluted mix can be sprayed over 100 square feet of Eichornia. In other words, one acre of Water Hyacinth infestation will require 435 litres of Phytocide concentrate.
• SUPPLY : Supply will be effected within 10 working days of receipt of Purchase Order and full payment in advance.
