Akarshana Bordeaux Lime

Akarshana® Bordeaux Lime is a premium-grade agricultural lime specially formulated for the preparation of Bordeaux Mixture — one of the most trusted and time-tested fungicidal solutions in crop protection. Developed with a focus on purity, consistency, and performance, Akarshana® Bordeaux Lime ensures an optimal reaction with Copper Sulphate, resulting in a stable, effective, and well-balanced Bordeaux Mixture.

The product plays a vital role in protecting crops from a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases by forming a protective layer on plant surfaces. It neutralizes the excess acidity of Copper Sulphate and enables the controlled release of copper ions, thereby minimizing phytotoxicity while maximizing disease control efficiency.
