Increase your oilseed yield and production by Mycorrhiza
IBAT Asia Co., Ltd. is a Thailand
based company which is specialized
in technology transfer and
engineering in various fields of
environmental and renewable
technology like organic farming,
biodiesel, biogas for municipals or
private persons.
The high quality of our products is
guaranteed to import and to adapt
equipment for Thailand from
experienced German and British
companies.Most plant species (80-90%) naturally
live in symbiosis with some soil fungi.
This form of symbiosis is beneficial for
the plant (enhancing resistance, growth
and productivity) and is called
Mycorrhiza.
The fungi colonize plant roots and their
extensive network of fungal filaments
(hyphen). They provide the root system
with additional and more efficient
collectors of nutrients and water, thus
providing a far better access to the soil
than the feeder roots alone could do.
Effects of Mycorrhiza:
 Increased supply with nutrients and water
 Faster adaptation and establishment of transplants into new environments, less losses of transplants
 Increased flower formation and earlier start of flowering
 Increased biomass and yield
 Increased resistance to attacks by pathogens and pests
 Increased tolerance to drought stress and fertilizer deficiencies
 Reduced need for fertilization and irrigation
 Increased tolerance to other stress factors such as: high salinity, unfavourable pH value, presence of
contaminants (e.g.: heavy metals, arsenics, etc.)
