Dhanuka Agritech introduces comprehensive crop protection portfolio for Indian apple growers

Variable chill hours, aggressive mite infestations, and unpredictable weather have long been problems for apple growers in Jammu & Kashmir, Uttarakhand, and Himachal Pradesh. In addition to red mites and other insect taxa continuing to destroy leaves and fruit quality, which has a direct impact on market value and farmer returns, rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and early frosts have disrupted blooming and fruit sets. Aware of these problems, Dhanuka Agritech Limited has been working closely with horticulture experts to offer the area’s apple growers comprehensive and prompt solutions.

Dhanuka Agritech has introduced an integrated portfolio of science-driven solutions designed specifically for apple cultivation to help farmers tackle these escalating issues. This portfolio, which was created with advanced Japanese technology and tailored to the specific needs of the local orchard, includes targeted interventions for improved pollination assistance, crop development, and pest management. As a result, growers can protect their crops and produce apples of the highest caliber.

The flagship product in the range is MIYAKO, a cutting-edge miticide developed in Japan and marketed by Dhanuka Agritech. Miyako is designed to effectively control red mites and related species at all stages of life. It is an inexpensive yet very efficient tool for farmers to protect their orchards without sacrificing environmental responsibility because of its low dosage and economical requirements.

The final piece is DECIDE, a broad-spectrum insecticide that works well against a variety of sucking pests, such as mites, thrips, and whiteflies. Decide’s rapid and durable action reduces the need for multiple applications and helps stabilize flowering and fruit set, both of which are critical for achieving high-quality yields.

The efficacy of these treatments is complemented by WETCIT, a biodegradable spray adjuvant derived from natural orange peel extracts. It increases pollinator activity and the penetrative and spreading action of applied treatments, improving the productivity and health of orchards.

Apple growers in our nation must find creative yet practical answers to the dual concerns of pest attack and climate variability, according to Dr. R.G. Agarwal, Chairman Emeritus of Dhanuka Agritech Limited. Our emphasis on farming innovation and sustainability is demonstrated by our expanded portfolio. We believe that farmers can overcome today’s obstacles and create a bright future with the correct initiatives.
