About Multiplex Jivras
Multiplex Jivras (Humic Acid min. 10% + Fulvic Acid min. 2.5%) by Karnataka Agro Chemicals is a biostimulant containing humic acid extracted from decomposed organic matter, along with nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur, calcium, magnesium, copper, zinc, and other micronutrients. It effectively accelerates germination by stimulating enhanced respiration, leading to better root and shoot growth in seedlings across all crops. By chelating soil-applied nutrients including phosphorus in acidic and calcareous soils into a more plant-available form, Jivras helps crops access nutrients more efficiently. It is applied via soil application, foliar spray, seed treatment, or urea coating, in recommended crops.

Mode of Action: Humic and Fulvic acid act as chelating agents, growth stimulants, and catalysts, converting applied nutrients including phosphorus in acidic and calcareous soils into a more plant-available form, while stimulating enhanced respiration to accelerate seed germination and seedling growth.
Time of Application: Pre-sowing (seed treatment, urea coating), or through the crop's active growth stages (soil, drip, and foliar application).
Key Features & Benefits
-
Increases Soil Water-Holding Capacity: Helps the soil retain moisture for longer periods.
-
Enhances Drought Resistance: Supports plants in tolerating moisture stress and drought conditions.
-
Reduces the Adverse Effects of Direct Fertilizer Application: Helps neutralize the effects of direct application of urea and muriate of potash on the soil.
-
Reduces Nutrient Leaching: Chelating action helps retain essential plant nutrients and minimize nutrient losses.
-
Promotes Seed Germination and Seedling Growth: Supports better germination and faster early-stage plant growth.
-
Improves Root Growth and Biomass: Enhances root proliferation, root mass, and overall plant biomass.
-
Supports Beneficial Soil Microorganisms: Improves root respiration and stimulates beneficial microbial activity in the soil.
-
Enhances Nutrient Uptake: Helps plants efficiently utilize nutrients from applied fertilizers.
-
Improves Yield and Quality: Supports better yield in terms of both quality and quantity, including improved fruit size when used in combination with zinc.

Multiplex Jivras Expert Advice
"For best results, use Multiplex Jivras across the crop cycle as a seed treatment or urea coating before sowing, and as a soil or foliar application during active growth. Its chelating action works especially well alongside regular fertilizer use, helping the crop access nutrients more efficiently rather than replacing fertilization entirely." – BigHaat Agronomy Expert
