What is AMF Mycorrhiza?

AMF stands for Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi — a type of beneficial fungus that lives in a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. These fungi colonize plant roots and extend their hyphae (tiny thread-like structures) deep into the soil, increasing the root surface area up to 100 times!

In return, the plant gives the fungi carbohydrates (sugars), while the fungi deliver essential nutrients and water from the soil.

 How AMF Mycorrhiza Benefits Crops

1. Improves Nutrient Uptake

AMF helps absorb phosphorus, zinc, copper, and other micronutrients more efficiently from the soil — even from hard-to-reach zones.

2. Boosts Root Growth

With a healthier and more extensive root system, plants can withstand drought, transplant shock, and other environmental stresses better.

3. Enhances Water Absorption

AMF fungi increase water retention and transport, helping crops survive during dry spells or in low-irrigation areas.

4. Reduces Fertilizer Dependency

Farmers can cut back on chemical phosphorus fertilizers, reducing costs and soil degradation over time.

5. Promotes Soil Health

AMF improves soil structure, increases microbial diversity, and contributes to long-term fertility and sustainability.

Best Practices for Using AMF Mycorrhiza

• Do not mix with chemical fungicides or strong chemical fertilizers at the time of application.

• Keep the product in a cool, dry place.

• Ensure good soil moisture during and after application.
