Tyra 2 kg

How does Tyra work?

It inhibits the growth of pathogenic fungi in the soil. Creates a healthy root environment, helps the development of cultivated plantsimproved resistance and higher yields.

From a crop production point of view, the most important thing is to break down the pathogen multiplication patternsby inhibiting their reproduction and creating a healthy root environment.

By colonising the root system, it protects the plant from pathogenic fungi and bacteria infecting from the soil.

It feeds on pathogenic fungi, produces antibiotic and plant growth stimulating substances. It is a hyperparasitic beneficial fungus.

The developing fungal filaments produce biologically active substances that stimulate the immune system of plants and the production of antibodies. It makes the plant more resistant to pathogens by inducing resistance.

Tyra is also able to produce high levels of cellulase enzyme that can completely break down plant residues.

What does Tyra contain?

Tyra contains strain T1 (NCAIM 68/2006) of the fungus Trichoderma asperellum, which has been isolated from native soils by Hungarian researchers.

Its origin is the reason for its excellent adaptation to the local soil and weather conditions and its long-lasting effects. It also causes little or no damage to beneficial fungal communities, mycorrhizal fungi.

How can Tyra be used?

10-20 g/10 litres of water, sufficient to treat 100 m2 of soil.

It can be used on all crops, applied to the soil during pre-sowing soil preparation and then incorporated or covered with mulch. It is also suitable for application by irrigation.

The number of germs per unit area applied is important for this live formulation. This determines the efficiency, the rate of colonisation. The rates given are the minimum rates at which the product will have an effect, but increasing the number of germs per area will improve the efficiency. It cannot be overdosed as it is a natural, indigenous species.

In vegetables:

In vegetables, Tyra should be sprayed or watered on the soil surface. It is recommended to apply it in shallow soil or mulch.

In fruits:

When planting fruit trees and ornamentals, dipping and/or watering the roots is also a good solution.

Where should Tyra be used?

It should be used primarily on species susceptible to soil overwintering fungal infections, especially if there has been a history of such an infestation in the previous year.

In vegetables:

The most common soil-borne pathogenic fungi are Sclerotinia, Pythium, Fusarium, Phytophthora. These are a serious problem in chickweed, cassava and various root vegetables.

Excellent efficacy can be achieved by treating with an aqueous suspension of the productthe roots of seedlings, potted plants to be planted by dipping or watering. Similarly, wet spraying of potatoes is also effective. In this case, prepare a solution of 0,02-0,03 %.

For fruits:

In fruit stands where diseases spread by infected plant material are present, it is advisable to apply a complete soil treatment, with shallow mulching, possibly covering the applied material with mulch.

What to look out for when using?

Temperature:

The optimum temperature for the Trichoderma fungus in TYRA is 15-25°C measured in soil. It multiplies most rapidly at 60-70% soil water saturation.

Exposure:

For horticultural crops, treatment can be repeated 1-2 times per month. For sure effect, a second treatment is recommended after 2-3 months.

A full surface treatment is recommended at first, with repeated treatments using the irrigation system in bursts.application with a watering system or root irrigation per plant is also effective.

Always apply in the morning or evening and either work in immediately or cover with mulch, as the live Trichoderma fungi in the soil are soil-dwelling and UV radiation will kill them. Also keep an eye on the optimum temperature, measure the soil temperature.

It can be applied with any sprayer or sprinkler.

Mixability:

Do not use with fungicidal pesticides and soil disinfectants!

When used, the product must be prepared as an aqueous suspension. Soaking in lukewarm water for a few hours (2-24) will accelerate and improve the effect of the products.

Efficacy:

Due to its high micronutrient content of 10 m/m% and its indigenous origin, TYRA can be relatively effective even under less than optimal application conditions. The efficiency improves with increasing application rates. The recommended rates indicate the minimum operating level where an effect can still be detected.
