For the farming community, it is imperative to select the right varieties and healthy plantlets in order to achieve quality and consistent produce. It is a well-known fact that quality plantlet production could be achieved by selecting top quality seeds and mother plants, which in turn helps farmers to get attractive price for their end produce.
Unfortunately, it has been observed that plantlet suffer around 10-15 per cent mortality due to poor nursery management. Reason why, Vitthal Ganga has been providing its farming community with healthy plantlets through the implementation of the innovative bio-hardening technology.
Scientifically defined, bio-hardening or biopriming is a technique through which the in vitro grown plant material produces a metabolic response to a microbial inoculant, helping to strengthen the plantlets against abiotic and biotic stresses. This technology is being provided through our on-site hi-tech nursery and bio-hardening center, wherein our member farmers are able to get right varieties and healthy plantlets.
Some of the services offered by our nursery are as under:
- Supply of quality plantlets, seeds and mother plants
- Innovative bio-hardening technology for developing quality plantlets
- Help farmers to achieve fastest and equal growth on farm
- Services provided at affordable costs to members
- Plantlet demand and supply coordination
The innovative bio-hardening technology offered by Vitthal Ganga not only helps in reducing the overall mortality of plants on the field, but also provides quality plantlets at cheaper rates to the members, thereby, saving the time and energy of the farmers.
The primary focus of Vithal Ganga is to procure quality produce from farms and thereafter, directly export them to the end-retail consumers worldwide. With more than 8000 acres of land under harvest by our 5200+ farmers’ community, we undertake stringent produce selection through scientific handling and grading of fruits and vegetables. Thus, to enable exporting only quality produce, we have been offering best-in-class plantlets to our farming community, developed through the use of bio-hardening technique.
