Pomacea canaliculata/ Apple snail

Pomacea canaliculata, due to its strong adaptability, wide feeding habits, and large appetite, has rapidly spread to farmland, fish ponds, rivers, lakes, wetland parks and other water environments, endangering ecosystem balance, agricultural production, and human health.

The eggs of apple snails are laid on the surface of dry objects or plants above the water surface, such as ditch walls, walls, field ridges, river banks and straw. The first egg mass is bright orange-red, which gradually changes to Barbie pink during hatching. Barbie’s pink egg mass is one of the important signs that we can identify the apple snail.

Functions of polyglutamic acid in agriculture

Strong hydrophilicity and water retention capacity: Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) reduces soil infiltration rate, reduces water infiltration, increases soil saturated moisture content, reduces saturated hydraulic conductivity, and increases soil porosity. When submerged in the soil, a thin film will be formed on the surface of the plant root hairs. It not only protects the root hairs, but also serves as the best transport platform for nutrients, water and root hairs in the soil to come into close contact. It can effectively improve fertilizer production. dissolution, storage, transportation and absorption. Prevents the precipitation of sulfate, phosphate, oxalate and metal elements, allowing crops to more effectively absorb phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and trace elements in the soil. Promote the development of crop root systems and enhance disease resistance.

Balance soil pH: Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) has excellent buffering ability against acids and alkalis, and can effectively balance soil pH and avoid acidic soil caused by long-term use of chemical fertilizers. It plays the role of fertilizer conservation and inhibits the leaching of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen to the deep soil.

Can combine and precipitate toxic heavy metals: Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) has excellent chelating effect on toxic heavy metals such as Pb+2, Cu+2, Cd+2, Cr+3, Al+3, As+4.

Enhance plant stress resistance: Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) by integrating plant nutrition and water-active components in the soil can enhance resistance to symptoms caused by soil-borne plant pathogens.

Promote increased yield: By maintaining soil moisture content and enhancing crop nutrient absorption, the effect of Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) in increasing crop yield can be achieved.

    Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA)

    Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA), also known as natto gum and polyglutamic acid, is a water-soluble, biodegradable, non-toxic, sticky substance that is used in “natto” —First discovered in fermented beans. Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a macromolecular amino acid polymer produced by biological fermentation process and is available in two forms: powder and liquid.


    Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a special anionic natural polymer, a homopolyamide composed of linear amide bonds of glutamic acid between α-amino groups and γ-carboxyl groups.


    Polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) is an amino acid polymer synthesized by microbial fermentation. It has excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. It can be used as a biomedical material, sewage treatment material, and can also be used as a food thickener. , food antifreeze and preservation, cosmetics moisturizer and agriculture and other fields.

    Trichoderma harzianum

    Trichoderma harzianum is a fungus fungicides.

    Working through multiple mechanisms such as nutrient competition, heavy parasitism, cell wall decomposing enzymes, and induction of plant resistance, antagonistic effects on plant pathogenic bacteria,suppress root diseases of crops as well as diseases of leaves and fruits, thereby achieving the purpose of disease prevention and control.


    The treated hyphae sense the lectin secreted by the host (pathogen) and tend to grow towards the host. The lectin binds to the galactose residue on the cell wall of Trichoderma and invades the host through this site, causing the pathogen to collapse due to the reduction in cell expansion pressure. untie.

    Green Nonionic surfactants

    As surfactants, green nonionic surfactants alkyl glycosides (APG) and alcohol ether glycosides (AEG) are used. Alkyl glycoside APG is environmentally friendly, mild, multi-functional and comes in various models. Mainly include: alkyl glycoside 1214 (APG1214), alkyl glycoside 0810 (APG0810), alkyl glycoside 0814 (APG0814), high foaming alkyl glycoside APG, low foaming alkyl glycoside APG, non-foaming alkyl glycoside APG, etc.

    Green, Safe, environmental friendly is the new trend of future pesticide industry

    On December 27, Document No. 7 of the National Development and Reform Commission announced the latest “Guidance Catalog for Industrial Structural Adjustment (2024 Edition)”, which will be effective from February 1, 2024.

    Policy encouragement on Pesticides: development and production of new varieties, new dosage forms, special intermediates and auxiliaries of highly efficient, safe and environmentally friendly pesticides, production of chiral and three-dimensional structure pesticides by directional synthesis, development and production of new biological pesticide products and new technologies.

    Elicitors for plants

    Substances that can activate plants to produce immune responses are also called elicitors, such as,
    — Small molecule compounds: plant hormones and their derivatives (salicylic acid (SA), auxin (IAA), naphthylacetic acid (NAA), benzothiadiazole S-methyl ester (BTH), brassinosteroid (BR) etc.), natural secondary metabolites and their derivatives (AHO, DSF, ZNC, etc.).


    — Carbohydrates: polysaccharides (pectin (galacturonic acid oligosaccharides, etc.), chitosan, β-glucan, alginate, chitin, etc.), oligosaccharides (chito-oligosaccharides, gluco-oligosaccharides, chito-oligosaccharides, etc.) Tetra-oligosaccharide, etc.), lipopolysaccharide (from various microbial sources, LPS, JY001, etc.).


    — Proteins and peptides: polypeptides (flagellar peptide flg22, etc.), proteins (hypersensitive protein Harpin, ultrafine Alternaria protein, cryptoprotein, VDAL, etc.), oomycetes, glycoproteins.


    — Others: microorganisms, lipids, nucleic acids (guanine glycosides), vitamin B1, inorganic salts, non-protein amino acids, azelaic acid, iron chlorin, glycerol 3-phosphate and dehydrorosin aldehyde, etc.
