V-PHOS (Bacillus megaterium )
Phosphorus is one of the essential nutrients required for plant growth. V-PHOS contains microbial strains of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (Bacillus megaterium), which solubulize insoluble phosphates in soils and makes it available to plant.

Mode of action - uptake of nutrients
- V-PHOS, which dissolve, insoluble form of phosphorus is called phosphobacteria.
- V-PHOS also produces amino acids, Vitamins and growth promoting substances like IAA, GA, which help in better growth of the plant
- Phosphate is required by the plant for the activities of food synthesis, Flower formation, Fruit setting and seed setting. Phosphorus nutrition is absolutely essential for cell reproduction and growth of root and shoot.
- Inoculation of V-PHOS into soil produces organic acids such as Formic, Acetic, propionic, Lactic, Glycolic, Fumaric and Succinic acids. Some of these acids form chelates with cations such as Ca and Fe and such chelation results in effective solubilization of phosphates.
- V-PHOS increases 17-20% of the crop yield.
Recommended Crops
Rice, Ragi, Maize, Sorghum, Arecanut ,Sugarcane, Millets, Coconut, Cotton, Cocoa, Banana, Cardamom, Pepper, Coffee, Rubber, Tea, Vanilla, Orange, Amla, Turmeric and all Agricultural and Horticultural crops.
Method of application
Seed Treatment
For Paddy (1 Kg/acre or 250ml/acre) other crops (½ Kg/acre or 125ml/acre). Mix required quantity of V-PHOS with 250ml of cool rice kanji and make a slurry. Treat the seeds sufficient for an acre. Dry in shade for 30 minutes and sow.
Seedling treatment
Mix 2 Kg or 500ml of V-PHOS in 50 lit of water and dip the roots for 15 mts before transplanting.
Main field application
Mix 5 Kg or 1000ml of V-PHOS in 100 Kg of well composted farmyard manure and broadcast in one acre of main field, just before transplanting.
V-PHOS should not be mixed with any chemical insecticide, fungicide and weedicide. Maintain organic mater and adequate moisture before and after application.
Viable Cell Count: 2 x 10 8 (Carrier)
