HPM Gold Bio-Fertilizer: Boost Root Growth & Yields Naturally
Unlock the full potential of your soil with HPM Gold, a premium mycorrhizal bio-fertilizer designed to act as a "second root system" for your crops.
HPM Gold is a granular formulation containing Vesicular-Arbuscular Mycorrhiza (VAM). It works by expanding your crop's root network, allowing plants to access deep soil moisture and "fixed" nutrients like Phosphorus and Zinc that are otherwise unavailable. It is the perfect solution for correcting crop yellowing and ensuring healthy, green growth.
Best For: Wheat, Paddy (Rice), Vegetables, and Cash Crops.

How It Works: Mode of Action
HPM Gold functions through a symbiotic relationship between the beneficial fungus and your crop roots:
- Colonization: Upon application, the mycorrhizal spores germinate and penetrate the plant roots, establishing a connection.
- Network Expansion: The fungus extends fine threads (hyphae) far into the soil, penetrating micro-pores that normal roots cannot reach.
- Nutrient Exchange: This extended network mines minerals (P, Zn, N) and water, delivering them to the plant in exchange for sugars, boosting overall growth.
This process is especially effective in solubilizing phosphorus and zinc, making them bio-available to the plant.
Target Crops & Benefits
| Crop | Key Benefits |
|---|---|
| Wheat | Increases tillering, improves grain filling, and helps recover from herbicide stress. |
| Paddy (Rice) | Reduces transplant shock, improves silica uptake (stronger stems), and boosts root mass. |
| Vegetables & Cash Crops | Corrects chlorosis (yellowing), improves fruit quality, and enhances nutrient use efficiency. |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. HPM Gold is a granular product meant for soil application.
Dosage per Acre & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (KG / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wheat / Cereals | 4.0 KG | N/A (Broadcast) | N/A | 0 |
| Paddy (Rice) | 4.0 KG | N/A (Broadcast) | N/A | 0 |
| Vegetables | 4.0 KG | N/A (Broadcast) | N/A | 0 |
*N/A = Not Applicable for granular soil application. *PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply the first dose (Basal) at the time of sowing or transplanting. A second dose (Top Dressing) can be applied 25-30 days after sowing during the active growth phase.
- Mixing: Being granular, HPM Gold is easy to handle. Mix it with sand, organic manure, or urea to ensure even distribution across the field.
- Coverage: Broadcast uniformly over the soil. The granules are designed to dissolve rapidly upon contact with soil moisture or irrigation water.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can HPM Gold be mixed with other chemical fertilizers?
Yes, HPM Gold is compatible with most granular fertilizers like Urea. However, avoid mixing it with strong fungicides that might harm the beneficial VAM spores.
2. Does HPM Gold help with crop yellowing?
Absolutely. Yellowing is often caused by Zinc or Nitrogen deficiency. HPM Gold improves the uptake of these specific nutrients, restoring chlorophyll and greenness.
3. Is this product safe for organic farming?
Yes, HPM Gold is a biological product (Bio-fertilizer) and is considered an eco-friendly input suitable for sustainable and integrated nutrient management (INM).
4. Can I use HPM Gold after applying herbicides?
Yes. Using HPM Gold after herbicide application is a strategic move. It helps the crop recover from any herbicide-induced stress (phytotoxicity) by boosting metabolic activity.
5. What is the shelf life of the product?
As a biological product containing live spores, it is best used fresh. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain spore viability.
