Biotilis contains endospores of Bacillus subtilis. The composition is customised to comply with regulatory guidelines of respective countries. Bacillus subtilis is a proprietary strain and compliant with National Bio Diversity Authority guidelines and has Access Benefit Sharing (ABS) agreement with the State Bio Diversity Board for payment of royalty to the habitat from where the microbes have been isolated. The strain is under Patent deposit certificate with Budapest Treaty recognised depository.

Substrate Competition for space and Nutrients: Biotilis colonizes maximum space and absorbs maximum nutrients available at the target site and thereby controls the pathogens by starving them for food and competing for space- Domino effect.

Mycoparasitism: Biotilis is a biological fungicide that attacks disease causing pathogens before they reach the plant system. It derives nutrition from the target pathogen and Biotilis spores multiply inside it and eventually kill the pathogen.

Enzyme production: Biotilis secretes certain antagonistic secondary metabolites which have an anti-fungal effect that pathogenise and kill the disease-causing organism. The metabolites released also have a Plant growth promoting effect which stimulates the rhizosphere for better root establishment and root health.

  • • Biotilis effectively controls soil borne fungal diseases and fungal diseases on fruits and leaves.
  • • Pathogenic load reduction leads to improved plant health and thereby increased crop productivity.
  • • Biotilis can be used as an effective component in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programmes, thereby leading to a reduction in use of chemical pesticides and creating a safer environment.

  • Application method Notes

    Seed dressing: Mix Biotilis with crude sugar in sufficient water to make a slurry and coat seeds and dry in shade and sow / broadcast / dibble in the field. Do not store treated / coated seeds more than 24 hrs

    Soil application: Biotilis can be used as under:

    • 1. Mix Biotilis at recommended doses in sufficient water and drench soil at early leaf stage/ 2-4 leaf stage / early crop life cycle
    • 2. Drip Irrigation: If there are insoluble particles, filter the solution and add to drip tank.
    • 3. Long duration crops / Perennial / Orchard crops: Dissolve Biotilis at recommended doses in sufficient water and apply as a drenching spray near root zone twice a year. It is recommended to have first application before the onset of the main monsoon / rainfall/ spring season and second application after the main monsoon / rainfall / autumn/ fall season.

    Foliar application:

    1. Foliar application to be done at early disease incidence. 1-2 follow up sprays to be done at weekly intervals

    2. Mix Biotilis at recommended doses in sufficient water and spray on foliage/ fruit/plant. Apply twice a year for long duration crops. It is recommended to have first application before the onset of the main monsoon / rainfall/ spring season and second application after the main monsoon / rainfall / autumn/ fall season.

    Note:

    Do not store Biotilis solution for more than 24 hours after mixing in water.

    A fraction of the product may not be soluble in water. It is advisable to filter and discard undissolved residue and use filtered liquid for spraying or feeding through drip irrigation.

  • Compatibility

    Compatible with other BioPesticides , biofertilizers, organic fertilizers, organic manures, biopesticides, vermicompost, sea kelp (seaweed fertilizer), protein hydrolysates, organic carbon and rock phosphate.

    Note:

    It is advisable to have a one-week gap if soil application pesticides are to be used after application of Biotilis
