Three tricho cards (consisting of ~60000 parasitized eggs) per hectare are applied usually from 30th day after transplantation. Five such releases are made at every 7-10 days interval till egg masses or moth activity is not seen, whichever is earlier. Card should be placed in the field before expected adult emergence date mentioned on the card. Farmers should refrain from using pesticides in the field where Trichogramma are released.

Price : Rs. 40/- per 200gm., Rs. 120/- per kg
Preparation of formulation:
The Trichoderma harzianum is grown in potato dextrose broth. After 6-7 days when it is sufficiently sporulated the culture is mixed with Talc powder and carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) to make formulation. The formulation should have at least 1X108cfu.
Recommendation
Used for growth promotion enhancing growth of root and shoot and ultimately higher yield.
Method of usage
Seed treatment: Use 10g/Kg for seed treatment. Soak the seeds in water for overnight. Decant the water completely and apply powder to the seed and mix thoroughly and after complete mixing air dry the seeds under shade for at least 1 hour and then go for showing.
Spray application: Use 10g powder in 1 liter of water- mix well and then spray. Use 200 liter of solution for 1 acre of land.
Advantages
(i) enhances germination reducing the germination time., (ii) promotes root and shoot growth, (iii) Induces resistance, (iv) Increase yield, (v) Easy to apply by the farmers
Intellectual Property Right
The product is from ICAR-NRRI so IPR issue is applied and it is exclusive to NRRI only.
