IFFCO Nano DAP

IFFCO Nano DAP is a nanotechnology based revolutionary agri input which provides nitrogen and phosphorous to plants. Nano DAP is a sustainable option for farmers towards smart agriculture and to combat climate change. Nano DAP is bio available to plants because of its desirable particle size (<100 nm), more surface area and more particles per DAP prill.

Time & Dosage of Application

Application of Nano DAP liquid as seed or root treatment followed by one to two foliar sprays at critical growth stages can result in 50-75% reduction of conventional DAP application to crops.

Note: Dose and quantity of Nano DAP (Liquid)depends upon the seed size, weight and type of crop

Seed Treatment

Seed Treatment: Apply Nano DAP @ 3-5 ml per Kg of seeds by dissolving in required quantity of water to form thin film on seed surface. Leave for 20-30 minutes; Shade dry it and then sow it.

Seed Treatment

Seedling/Tuber/Sett treatment

Seedling/tuber/sett treatment: Apply Nano DAP @ 3-5 ml per litre of water. Dip the seedling roots /tuber / setts in required quantity of Nano DAP solution for 20-30 minutes. Dry it in shade and then transplant it

Seedling/Tuber/Sett treatment

Foliar Spray

Foliar Spray: Apply Nano DAP @ 2-4 ml per litre of water at good foliage stage (Tillering /Branching). An additional spray at pre-flowering stage can be applied in long duration and high phosphorus requiring crops. Apply 2nd Foliar spray at Pre Flowering / Late Tillering stage for better response in high phosphorus requiring crops..

Testimonials

We can observe that the crop sprayed with Nano DAP replacing upto 50% conventional DAP and Nano DAP seed treated have better root development and crop growth.

I wanted to try Nano DAP and wanted to see the difference between the Conventional DAP and Nano DAP application in my plot and did the same my dividing my plot. Now, I find obvious difference in both and the crop plot in which Nano DAP has been used has shown better progress.

I have observed better crop growth (in terms of tillers and height) when treated seeds and sprayed with Nano DAP when compared to conventional fertiliser (without using Nano DAP).

I have not used conventional DAP in my field and started using Nano DAP for seed treatment and sprayed it twice. The results of Nano DAP on my crops is very good and I can see that my crops have better growth.

This is the second season of IFFCO Nano DAP trial in KVK in 5 crops (chickpea, pea, lentil, wheat and mustard). Root nodules in Nano DAP treated chick pea plants were large in size and number as compared to the control one. Primary, secondary and tertiary root development in plants treated with Nano DAP is also better. Hence trials at KVK proves that crops perform better when seeds once treated with Nano DAP followed by 2 foliar sprays.

I am a wheat grower and prepared my field for sowing of wheat on dec 1st. I knew about Nano fertilizers since rice growing season so during wheat season, I had applied Nano DAP. I followed both the conventional DAP practice and Nano DAP. Today I feel remarkable difference between my earlier cultivation practice and DAP liquid (Nano DAP) practice. As you can see my crop is well established and lush green so now, I believe that we should adapt Nano fertilizers in farming whether its Nano Urea or Nano DAP and I will encourage others too.

I am doing paddy cultivation using Nano DAP in 2 plots. In one of the plots, I used 100% conventional DAP and, in another plot, seedlings were transplanted after treatment with Nano DAP @ 2 ml/lit of water and with 50% conventional DAP followed by 1 foliar spray of Nano DAP @ 4 ml/lit. As can be seen that Nano DAP plots have better tillering and greenness than the conventional DAP plots and thus better than the conventional ones.
