PONA PLUS PONA PLUS is a unique bio-formulation constituted of microbial consortium (PGPR) which aid in nitrogen fixation, phosphorous solubilization and potassium mobilization as well as producing phytoharmones like auxins and cytokinin, enzymes and metabolites which aid in plant growth and development. The mechanism of PGPR includes regulating hormonal and nutritional balance, inducing resistance against plant pathogens, and solubilizing nutrients for easy uptake by plants. In addition PGPR shows synergistic and antagonistic interaction with microorganisms within the rhizosphere and beyond bulk soil, which indirectly boost plant growth rate. Benefits v Improve root proliferation v Increase nutrient mobility v Elicit plant defense systems v Plays important role in plant response to biotic and abiotic stresses v Helps in improving crop productivity Recommended crops Effective on all crops including cereals, vegetables, plantation and ornamental plants.

About the Company GST Registration Date: Jul 2017 Legal Status of Firm: Limited Company Number of Employees: 11 To 25 People Annual Turnover: 1.5 - 5 Cr company-description: Ponalab was established in 2014 with the help of the National Horticultural Mission, Government of India, to provide agricultural and livestock farmers with sustainable solutions for organic farming. Since its inception, Ponalab has established two Research and Development units at Bangalore and Mysore, alongside 6 field units spread across India, focused on developing solutions for the specific soil, climate and crop types of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Rajasthan.Ponalab has consciously integrated backward and forward to make sure that you, our customer gets what they truly wish for - a crop worthy of the effort and investment of money and time. OK...a little more than just a crop worthy of effort. Maybe a little luck thrown in for good measure. Our integration is complete from disease and pest resistant, high-yield seeds to growth accelerators, bio-fertilizers to bio-pesticides, bio-insecticides, and biological seed and foliar treatments. Ponalab began as a manufacturer of bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides, as well as animal feed products and enzymes for poultry, swine and cattle. The focus on agricultural products and its vision resulted in the acquisition of Dhisha Seeds, a Research and development-driven manufacturer of high-yield, disease and pest resistant seeds. Ponalab campaign for better crops saw the establishment of a dedicated unit focused on insect pheromones and insect traps, registered as Ponalab Bio-Growth. The partnership with Carlsbad BioSystems, USA paved the way for the development of bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides, pheromones and pro-biotics, and resulted in a phenomenal rise in Ponalab's ability to provide comprehensive and sustainable solutions to farmers across the world.
