Company Name: Atharva Agro Chemical Industries
Product Name: SILICON GOLD
Technical Name: Silicon – Soil Application

Description:
SILICON GOLD is a silicon-based soil application product designed to supplement available silicon in the soil and support healthy crop growth. Silicon nutrition can contribute to stronger plant tissues, improved nutrient-use efficiency, and better tolerance to various environmental stresses. Research indicates that silicon fertilization can improve growth, nutrient uptake and yield in crops such as rice and maize.

Technical Name:
Silicon – Soil Application

Mode of Action:
Silicon is taken up by plants in an available form and deposited in plant tissues, where it can strengthen cell structures and support the plant's natural tolerance against biotic and abiotic stresses.

Features & Benefits:

• Helps supplement available silicon in soil.
• Supports stronger stems and plant structure.
• Helps improve crop tolerance to environmental stresses.
• Supports efficient nutrient uptake and utilization.
• May contribute to improved crop growth and yield when used as part of balanced nutrient management.
• Particularly useful for crops with high silicon demand, such as rice.

Application Method:
Apply to the soil and mix uniformly around the crop root zone. It can be incorporated into the soil or applied along with suitable basal fertilizers, depending on the crop and product label recommendations.

Dose:
Use as per the manufacturer's recommended label dose.
Note: The exact dose cannot be specified reliably without knowing the silicon concentration/formulation of SILICON GOLD. Published research uses widely different silicon sources and rates, so those research rates should not be treated as the product dose.

Pests:
Not directly a pesticide. Silicon nutrition may help plants develop physical and physiological defenses that can reduce susceptibility to certain insect pests and diseases.

Uses:

• Rice
• Wheat
• Maize
• Vegetables
• Fruits and horticultural crops
• Other field crops requiring silicon supplementation
