Katyayani SILICA+ (Silica Liquid Biofertilizer) is a biological fertilizer containing Silicate Solubilizing Bacteria (SSB) (2 × 10⁸ CFU/mL). It converts unavailable silicate minerals in the soil into ortho silicic acid, making silicon absorbable for plants. It mobilizes insoluble silicates, strengthens stems and leaves, enhances resistance to pests and diseases, improves overall plant health and crop yield and helps plants combat biotic and abiotic stresses.
Benefits
Increase plant Stress, Reduced crop yield, overall poor plant health, reduce photosynthesis

Mode of Action
Katyayani SILICA+ (Silicate Solubilizing Bacteria) (SSB) breaks down insoluble silicate minerals in the soil into ortho silicic acid, which plants absorb through water uptake. This strengthens cell walls, increases resistance to pests and diseases, and improves overall plant health.
Dose
-
Soil Application(Broadcasting): 1 Liter/ acre
-
Drenching: 10 ml/L water for root zone.
-
Fertigation: 1-2Liter/ Acre (drip irrigation)
Application Method
Broadcasting (soil Application), Drenching, Drip Irrigation
Benefits
- Solubilizes unavailable silica into plant-assimilable forms.
- Strengthens plant stems and leaves, improving pest and disease resistance.
- Enhances plant tolerance to lodging and environmental stresses.
- Increase crop yield and overall plant health.
FAQs
Q. Why is Katyayani Silica + important for plant health and growth?
A. Silicon is a beneficial element for plants that improves structural integrity, enhances resistance to pests and diseases, and reduces susceptibility to environmental stresses like drought and salinity. It also strengthens cell walls, promotes better nutrient uptake, and supports overall plant vigor.
Q. What crops can benefit from Katyayani Silica +?
A. Katyayani Silica + is suitable for cereals, vegetables, fruits, flowers, sugarcane, plantation crops, and more.
Q. How does Katyayani Silica + help with stress tolerance?
A. By strengthening cell walls and improving structural integrity, it aids plants in combating both biotic (pests, diseases) and abiotic (drought, temperature fluctuations) stresses.
Q. How often should Katyayani Silica + be applied?
A. It should be applied during critical growth stages or stress periods as recommended in dosage instructions.
Q. Is Katyayani Silica + safe for all crops?
A. Yes, Katyayani Silica + is formulated for a wide range of crops, ensuring improved health and yield without adverse effects.
Q. Can Katyayani Silica + improve pest resistance?
A. Yes, it strengthens cell walls, making plants less susceptible to pest attacks.
