Aastha Pseudo is high-performance bio-fungicide and plant growth-promoting bacterium (PGPB) which confers wide-spectrum protection to crops against diseases caused by bacterial and fungal agents. It includes Pseudomonas fluorescens, a beneficial bacterium that occurs naturally. It occupies the root zone, suppresses plant pathogens and enhances the overall health of the plants. This bio-agent of microbes is well known for producing secondary metabolites such as antibiotics, siderophores, and enzymes capable of inhibiting the growth of plant disease-causing organisms. It also enhances the availability of nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen, to facilitate healthy growth in plants. Aastha Pseudo is an Eco-friendly, Non-Chemical Fungicide used for the control of plant diseases while preserving soil health and diversified microbial flora. It is used in various vegetables, fruits, cereals, pulses, oilseeds, spices, and commercial crops.

π Mode of Action:
β’ Antibiotic Production: Produces antifungal metabolites (phenazines, pyrrolnitrin) that suppress plant pathogens
β’ Competition for Nutrients & Space: Outcompetes harmful microbes in the rhizosphere
β’ Systemic Resistance Induction: Triggers the plant's natural immune response against diseases
β’ Siderophore Production: Chelates iron, removes the nutrition that the pathogen needs to survive
β’ Enzymatic Pathogen Breakdown: Produces chitinases, proteases, and other enzymes to degrade the fungal cell walls
