~~FOR POST HARVEST PRESERVATION
ADVANTAGESGRAMICID AGRO reduces bacterial, fungal, algae, viral growthwithout leaving ':lny harmful chemical byproducts.
GRAMICID AGRO is an eco-friendly, non-toxic alternative tofungicides / chemicals currently used as Post-Harvest treatment fordomestic marketing and exporttrade.
GRAMICID AGRO can play vital role in considerably reducing postharvest losses offruits and vegetables through its anti-microbial andanti senescence properties.
GRAMICID AGRO has an inherent property in reducing the water lossof the fruits and vegetable to a great extent.
The scrubbing effect of GRAMICID AGRO also prevents the damagethrough Ethylene gas liberated through the injuryof the stem.
GRAMICID AGRO is environmentally safe and much safer thantraditional treatments and is much more effective against a widespectrum of post harvest problems.
Applied soon after harvest, GRAMICID AGRO assures farm-freshappearance, original taste and quality even after prolonged storageduring marketing and transportation.
GRAMICID AGRO is tasteless, colourless, odourless, Non Staining.
GRAMICIDAGRO is Non-Carcinogenic.
SAFETY MANUAL OF GRAMICID AGRO1. When working with GRAMICID AGRO protective goggles mustbe worn at all times. It is advisable to use rubber gloves, which afteruse can be ri nsed with water
2. If spilt, GRAMICID AGRO must be washed away immediatelywith plentyofwater.
3. GRAMICID AGRO is non-flammable. However, spontaneouscombustion may occur, if it is placed in contact with oxidizable organicsubstances. Hence contact b'etween GRAMICID AGRO and cotton,wool, straw, paper, oil, coal, textiles, etc. should be avoided.
4. GRAMICID AGRO should only be stored in the originalcontainers supplied by us, with the corresponding original seals.GRAMICID AGRO removed from the container, may not under anycircumstances, be returned to the container.
5. Keep in a cool place with close lid.

~~FOR POST HARVEST PRESERVATION
GRAMICID AGRO is a complex formulation of Hydrogen Peroxideand Silverwith surfactants.
Hydrogen Peroxide acts as the oxidizing agent and Silver givesits powerful oligodynamic action (cold sterilisation) and catalyticeffect.
Due to the special manufacturing process of the two basicelements,an excellent synergistic effect of the disinfecting andEthylene Scrubbing effect is obtained; the product is Non-Toxic & Eco-Friendly.
GRAMICID AGRO is tested and certified by various laboratories ofnational repute, like the National Chemical Laboratory (NCL)- Pune,Maharashtra State Agriculture Marketing Board, Indian DrugResearch Institute (IDRL)-Pune, Bombay Vet.College (Affiliated toKonkan Krishi Vidyapeeth), State Public Health LaboratoryMaharashtra Govt. to name a few ..
Post Harvest Loss - A Persistent Problem An alarming percentage offresh produce perishes long before it reaches consumer. Most of thisaccounted for by either natural degradation caused by bacterialinfection or mould & non-availability of good storage andtransportation linkages.
These loses could be minimized by suitable post harvestmeasures to increase shelf life by inhibiting bacterial and mouldgrowth. Mere washing of fruits and vegetables after harvest maysimply redistribute organisms from infected to healthy produce.
Conventional Approach Washing with fungicides / chemicals, mayleave bad taste, odourand Desirable residual toxicityon the producewhich can lead to consumer rejection. With strict environmentalregulations and controls imposed by most importing countries onpesticide residue levels in force, it is imperative to adapt to eco-friendly and Non-Toxic treatments.
GRAMICID AGRO An eco-friendly and Non-Toxic, as well aseconomical solution to use, unlike the other so called eco friendlytreatments, which are exorbitantly, expensive and a common farmeris unableto use them.
