Sustainable Cotton Bio-farming, New Technology Platform by Zydex Industries

We are a research-based organization dedicated to "Conserving limiting resources through Innovation, for a sustainable future," says Dr. Ajay Ranka, founder, and CMD who has various patents registered in 55 nations worldwide, and also served as a member of the Technology Development Board of the Indian government.

Under his direction, Zydex has expanded to become a major international player in technological innovation in the fields of textiles, roads, waterproofing & paints, and agriculture, with a staff of more than 800 people.

The Zytonic technology platform of bio-fertilizers, specialized adjuvants, and biological products provides superior soil structure and enhanced soil biology that increases crop resistance to biotic and abiotic challenges, improving crop production and product quality.

Complete replacement of chemical fertilizers (DAP, Urea, SSP, MoP, ZnSO4, etc.) without a yield penalty hasn't worked out in the past. Along with enhanced soil quality, less water usage, and better cotton quality, Zydex has brought technological advancement to make it a reality for the first time.

In comparison to chemical farming, our flagship program, Prakalp Sanjivani, improves crop productivity using 100% bio-fertilizer technology. With the use of the Zytonic technology platform, the soil becomes soft and porous with improved water-holding capacity, requiring less frequent irrigation.

Their technology package focuses on faster and more efficient surface bio-composting, which can be utilized to increase soil fertility and support bio-farming (compost accessible for use in cotton crops at a rate of 1,000 kg per acre). This system supports efficient drought management by combining evaporation management technology and bio-protection technology, addressing both irrigated and rainfed farming for cotton growers.

To sum it up, one crop cycle transition to bio-farming of the cotton crop is possible with yield improvement and water conservation, and soil biology improvement. The above benefits fit exceptionally well with the principles of BCI for improved soil health, reduced harmful effects of pesticides, and reduced water consumption.

The company has already collaborated with many cotton farmers all around the nation, and cordially invite others to witness their achievements with Prakalp Sanjivani.
