Report by Luis Claudio Lopez Department of Agriculture - Brazil ALKA FOLI
Agriculture Trial Report by: Luis Claudio Lopez Department of Agriculture Brazil Passion Fruit and Grapes The trial carried out by Luis C. Lopes was for the purpose of finding out if ALKA FOLI product was effective in the control of fungus, namely Fusarium Oxysporium and Glomerella cigulato and bacterias/diseases. Fungus is a worldwide problem for farmers and horticulturalists and in particular viticulturists. (Grape Growers) Fisaroi, Pxus[proi, This is a fungus in Brazil which originated from the growing of coffee. Land now used for the growing of other produce, is being affected by this fungus and it lies dormant in the ground for up to 10 years. Coffee itself is not affected by fungus. This is a major problem for farmers in Brazil. Glomerella cigulato This is a more common fungus and affects a wide range of crops grown in many parts of the world and the main cause is wet or very humid conditions. In Brazil, Soya bean crops also suffer from this problem and therefore it is very easy to begin assessing the size of this market. Septoria Another common fungus. Fungus attacks and kills the leaves and causes them to drop off. The disease will eventually spread to the fruit, however the first problem that occurs is that without the protection of the leaves, the fruit is exposed to the sun and becomes sun burnt and at that point worthless to the grower. Because no other high alkaline product can be used in agriculture, early indications are that it is the high pH of ALKA FOLI is the reason for the early success achieved in these trials. However this does not eliminate the possibility that something else in ALKA FOLI product is also assisting.
In order for the ALKA FOLI to adhere to the leaves and fruit, a sticking agent was mixed with the product before spraying. The sticking agent was Fersol Mineral Oil. The trial was conducted against a widely used fungicide Dithane, which is manufactured by Rohm and Haas Chemical Ltd. RESULTS WITH ALKA FOLI Both the passion fruit and grape vines treated were protected from ALL fungus. Both the passion fruit and grape vines which had previously been affected recovered becoming healthy. The fruit grew stronger and healthier When the soil was sprayed around the seedlings, fungus was controlled and the seedlings protected ALKA FOLI prevented and controlled rust which is another major problem for grapevines and other fruits. Plants badly affected fully recovered and became healthier. Spraying was stopped due to rainy season. Treated plants continued to be resistant to the fungus. RESULTS WITH DITHANE. Passion fruit and grapevines continued to be affected by the fungus after treatment. Passion fruit and grapevines previously diseased, never recovered after spraying with Dithane. Dithane was not an effective fungicide in comparison to ALKA FOLI INSECTICIDE Another major problem that exists here in Brazil is plants attacked by an insect called Holineya Clavigera that effectively poisons the plant and destroys it. The insecticide used for control is Ethion 500 and is manufactured by Thodia. Crops that were sprayed with ALKA FOLI rejected attacks from this bug.

UNOESTE Professor Dr. Jose Eduardo Creste
Report by: Professor Dr. Jose Eduardo Creste UNOESTE • The visit to the field of Parapuã has impressed me quite a lot on a very meaningful manner, in view of the tomato producer´s report. He did not use any other fungicide in his area and yet we have a situation of excelent production aspect. On the other hand, these plants are on a soil rich with nematoids, which makes it even more meaningful, as the ALKA FOLI has the property to render the plants more resistent or give them more capacity
