Efficacy of plant protection measure depends on many factors. One of the important factors is water pH value. Efficacy of the spray solution of insecticide, fungicide, nutrient or herbicide is directly linked to water pH value
If the water used for preparing spray solution has high pH value (alkaline or pH more than 7), then the Agro inputs (insecticides or fungicides or nutrients or herbicides) do not perform up to the desired level. This will also restrict effective absorption and utilization of sprayed solution
The spray solution pH influences stability and solubility of Agro inputs. The pH of water commonly used for preparing spray solution normally ranges from 7 to 9 which is in alkaline range. In this alkaline pH range pesticides and other Agri-inputs decompose fast to inactive form and make the sprayed Agro-inputs ineffective. This problem can be resolved by adjusting the pH of sprayed solution to less than 7. To overcome this problem, we have introduced “QUIK PH” a water pH balancer to maintain pH level of water used for preparing spray solution
