Nano Copper represents a paradigm shift in fungal disease management, combining the proven efficacy of copper with cutting-edge nanotechnology to deliver superior performance in modern agriculture. Unlike conventional copper-based fungicides, Nano Copper's nano-scale formulation (water suspension with 2.00% Copper Sulfate and 10.00% Biopolymer) offers enhanced bioavailability, reduced environmental accumulation, and organic farming compliance. The proprietary encapsulation technology ensures stable delivery of copper ions precisely where needed—at the site of pathogenic infection—while maintaining safety for beneficial soil organisms and food crops. Key Benefits at a Glance Superior Disease Control Highly effective against downy mildew in grapes, cucurbits, and other crops Demonstrated efficacy against powdery mildew, bacterial spot, and fungal leaf spots Broad-spectrum antifungal activity across diverse crop pathogenic fungi Works at lower copper concentrations than conventional fungicides Nanotechnology Advantages 50-100x higher surface area than conventional copper particles Enhanced penetration into fungal cell membranes and spore structures More uniform distribution on leaf surfaces Reduced particle settling—maintains suspension stability longer Environmental & Health Safety Approved for organic agriculture systems globally Reduces cumulative soil copper residue compared to traditional formulations Lower toxicity risk to non-target organisms (earthworms, beneficial insects) Rapid degradation in soil without bioaccumulation Safer than soluble copper sulfate forms (less phytotoxic) Economic Efficiency Lower application rates required due to increased bioavailability Reduced frequency of reapplication cycles Better value per unit of active copper Minimizes spray drift and runoff losses Practical Application Easy mixing at 50ppm concentration Compatible with most organic pest management programs No mixing restrictions with biological fungicides (wait 1 week after spray) Effective in diverse climate conditions Sustainability Advantage Nano Copper embodies sustainable agriculture principles by enabling "precision copper delivery" through nanotechnology. This approach represents a fundamental evolution beyond conventional blanket-spray fungicide strategies: Reduced Environmental Copper Load Conventional copper fungicides (Cu(OH)₂, copper oxychloride, Bordeaux mixture) leave cumulative soil residues that can accumulate to 1500-3000 mg Cu/kg soil after decades of use, potentially requiring land-use conversion. Nano Copper's enhanced bioavailability allows effective disease control at substantially lower total copper application rates, reducing long-term environmental persistence and soil copper saturation. Lower Phytotoxicity & Higher Crop Safety Nano-formulated copper exhibits significantly lower phytotoxic effects compared to highly soluble copper sulfate (CuSO₄), which can cause leaf burn and tissue damage. The encapsulated nano-particles release copper ions gradually and spatially at fungal infection sites, rather than creating high local concentrations that damage plant tissue. Field trials show improved plant health and yield compared to traditional copper formulations. Ecological Compatibility Studies demonstrate that copper nanoparticles cause less disruption to soil microbial communities than conventional copper forms. When properly formulated (as in Nano Copper with its biopolymer carrier), soil microbes adapt more readily to the nanoparticle presence. This preserves beneficial nutrient-cycling bacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, and soil fauna that support long-term soil health and productivity. Organic Certification Alignment As a nano-formulated copper hydroxide suspension, Nano Copper meets EU Regulation 2018/1981 and OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) standards for approved substances in organic production. Its compliant composition supports organic certification while delivering modern disease control efficacy that minimizes the need for multiple spray rotations. Precision Application Strategy By combining early detection scouting with nano-copper application, growers can implement "targeted disease management" rather than calendar-based preventive spraying. This reduces total pesticide volume, protects beneficial organisms in untreated areas, and minimizes non-target impacts. Biodegradation & Residue Profile Nano Copper's biopolymer carrier matrix biodegrades under soil microbial action and UV exposure, releasing copper ions that are then sequestered by soil minerals or incorporated into microbial biomass. This contrasts with persistent organic pesticides or metallic residues that resist decomposition. Studies confirm negligible copper residues in harvested produce when application rates and pre-harvest intervals are followed. Dosage & Application Foliar Application (Spray): Mix Nano Cu at a rate of 5 ml per liter of water to achieve 50ppm copper concentration. Spray Application Timing: Apply at first sign of disease or when conditions favor disease Repeat application after one week if disease pressure continues Cease sprays 14-21 days before harvest Soil Application (Drench/Irrigation): For soil-borne pathogens: Apply 2.5 liters per acre during sowing or transplantation Mix into soil at 2-4 inches depth Provides season-long disease suppression Application Restrictions & Precautions: Do not mix with chemical pesticides : Compromises formulation stability and efficacy Microbial inoculant timing : Wait minimum 1 week after application before introducing beneficial microbes Copper ions can reduce microbial inoculant viability After 7 days, copper residues diminish and microbial colonization proceeds Weather considerations : Avoid high heat (above 85°F/29°C) Apply during cool morning or evening hours Ensure adequate leaf wetness Crop-specific precautions : Test on small area for sensitive cultivars Young trees/vines: Use half-strength (2.5 ml/L) Avoid application during bloom and early fruit development Regional compliance : EU maximum: 6 kg Cu per hectare per year Check destination country residue limits Verify organic certifier approval FAQ What is Nano Copper Good For?

Seed Coating / Seed Treatment For enhanced early-stage vigor and phosphorus mobilization: Coat 1 kg of seeds with a slurry made by mixing 10 g of Bacillus megaterium and 10 g of crude sugar in sufficient water to create a uniform layer. Allow the coated seeds to air-dry in shade before sowing or broadcasting. This method enhances germination rates , promotes early root colonization , and initiates early phosphorus uptake , critical for crop establishment. 2. Seedling Root Dip Treatment Ideal for nursery-raised transplants (vegetables, rice, fruit crops): Prepare a suspension with 100 g of Bacillus megaterium in 10–15 L of clean water (per 1,000 seedlings). Dip seedling roots for 15–30 minutes before transplantation. This promotes rhizosphere colonization , improves root system architecture , and confers early protection against soil-borne pathogens . 3. Soil Application For pre-sowing or basal incorporation: Mix 3–5 kg/acre of Bacillus megaterium with 50–100 kg of well-decomposed organic manure or compost . Apply uniformly over the field and incorporate into the top 10–15 cm of soil. This improves soil microbial activity , increases available phosphorus (Olsen-P) , and enhances overall soil fertility and structure. 4. Fertigation / Irrigation Application To maintain microbial populations during crop growth: Dilute 3 kg/acre of Bacillus megaterium in 200–300 L of irrigation water. Apply through drip irrigation, furrow irrigation, or fertigation systems , preferably in the early morning or late afternoon.
