ERWIX is a registered biopesticide – a natural bactericide and fungicide for controlling phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi.
It strengthens the resistance of the plant, reduces the occurrence of bacteriosis and rot and protects the crop during the entire growing season. It has no withdrawal period, is safe for bees and the environment and is suitable for organic and conventional production.
Description ERWIX is a registered biopesticide – a natural biofungicide and biobactericide intended for the control of phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi.
It contains the beneficial bacterium Bacillus subtilis, safe for humans and the environment (GRAS status), suitable for organic and conventional production. The preparation has no withdrawal period and is not toxic to bees.
The problem in the planting
In fruit growing, vegetable growing and farming, attacks by bacterial and fungal pathogens that cause:
These diseases spread rapidly in conditions of moisture and heat, enter through the flower, small damage or the root, and can significantly reduce the yield and quality of the crop.
The solution – how ERWIX works
After the application of bacteria, Bacillus subtilis inhabits the surface of the plant and forms a protective microflora. That way:
At the same time, the plant becomes more vital and resistant to stress.
In practice
Mode of action ERWIX does not act aggressively like a chemical pesticide, but naturally protects the plant and strengthens its immune system, making it an ideal solution in integral and organic protection programs.
Mode of action
ERWIX acts preventively thanks to the bacterium Bacillus subtilis, which quickly colonizes the leaf surface, flower and fruit after application and forms a stable biofilm.
This biofilm represents a protective microbiological layer that hinders the development of pathogens.
The preparation works through several simultaneous mechanisms:
Bacillus subtilis inhabits the surface of the plant and occupies the attachment sites.
In this way, phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi cannot attach themselves and start an infection.
There is competition between beneficial bacteria and pathogens for:
Pathogens are left without conditions for development, their number decreases, and virulence decreases.
Bacillus subtilis produces surfactin and other bioactive metabolites with pronounced fungicidal and bactericidal effects.
These substances:
Composition Erwix contains:
Method of Application Application of Erwix:
1. For the control of Erwinia amylovora
Before the opening of the flowers, in full bloom, during flowering, during the growing season after the hail, spray with Erwix within 24 hours. Amount of application: 0.5 – 1%, i.e. 5 – 10 l/ha with a water consumption of 1000 l/ha;
2. To control Xanthomonas sp.
From Phenophase when the first fruit reaches the typical size. Amount of application: 1-2% with a water consumption of 300-400 l/ha
3. To control Botrytis cinereae
From pre-flowering to the phenophase, the beginning of ripening. Amount of application: 5 – 10 l/ha with water consumption of 600 – 1000 l/ha;
4. For control – Verticilium sp. and Fusarium sp.
Soil treatment immediately after planting and in the phase of intensive plant growth 3 to 4 times. Amount of application: 1 – 2 ml/m2
Effects of Application The effects of applying Erwix are reflected in the following:
