Product Overview

Karanja cake substrate for fertility and nematode suppression

K-Mix™ delivers the agronomic value of karanja (Pongamia) cake, providing organic nitrogen, carbon, and bioactive compounds that suppress nematodes and soil pests. The substrate releases nutrients gradually while enhancing soil organic matter and microbial diversity. Precision processing controls particle size and moisture, ensuring easy application in field, plantation, and nursery systems. K-Mix™ enables distributors to offer a sustainable soil amendment with proven pest-suppressive benefits.
