METHOD OF FORMULATION OF COMBINED MICROBE AND AGRICULTURAL CHEMISTRY, MICROBE-DERIVATIVE COMPOSITION, AND USE OF SAME

摘要

The present technology relates generally to compositions, methods and systems entailing one or more microbial species or microbe derivatives therefrom or combinations of a microbial species pins at least one microbe derivative, in combination with one or more agricultural chemicals such as a fungicide, an insecticide, a nematicide, a bacteriocide, an herbicide or a mixture thereof for application to crops for enhanced growth and performance. The microbial species are preferably selected from the group consisting of Trichoderma virens, Trichoderma atroviride, Trichoderma afroharzianum, Trichoderma strain K1, Trichoderma strain K2, Trichoderma strain K3: Trichoderma strain K4, Trichoderma strain K5 and mixtures thereof. The microbe derivatives are preferably microbial metabolites selected from the group consisting of 6-pentyl pyrone, harzianic acid, hydtra 1, harzinolide, 1-octene-3-ol and mixtures thereof. The compositions are preferably applied to seeds of the crop or by any of the common methods onto the crop in the field.
