SKB – TV03 Trichoderma viride Bio Fungicide
Biological Soil Protection for Healthy Roots and Higher Yield
SKB – TV03 Trichoderma viride is a beneficial bio-fungicide and plant growth promoter designed to protect crops from harmful soil-borne fungal pathogens. It works through natural biological mechanisms to suppress disease-causing fungi while improving root development and nutrient uptake.
Research in agricultural microbiology shows that Trichoderma viride colonizes the rhizosphere (root zone) and competes with harmful fungi such as Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, Pythium, and Sclerotium. It produces enzymes and antifungal metabolites that break down pathogen cell walls, preventing infection and improving plant health.
Unlike chemical fungicides, this biological formulation improves soil microbial activity, enhances nutrient availability, and supports sustainable farming practices. It is widely used in vegetable crops, fruits, cereals, pulses, and horticultural crops as part of Integrated Disease Management (IDM) programs.
