Buy IFFCO Sagarika Liquid Seaweed Extract Bio-Stimulant Online

Sagarika Liquid is IFFCO's natural seaweed extract bio-stimulant, and this is the official Sagarika store. Buy it here in 500 ml, 1 litre, and 5 litre packs, shipped as genuine IFFCO stock, with agronomy support on 1800 103 1967.

Sagarika Liquid is made from Indian marine algae, Kappaphycus alvarezii and Sargassum wightii in a 1:1 ratio, and is applied as a foliar spray across the crop cycle. It improves germination and establishment, builds stronger roots, raises tolerance to drought and heat, increases flowering, reduces fruit drop, and improves the yield and quality of what you harvest. It is suitable for all crops and suitable for organic farming.

Sagarika is a bio-stimulant, not a fertilizer. It does not replace your nutrition programme. It makes the programme you already run work harder.

Sagarika Liquid price and pack sizes

500 ml: ₹340 1 litre: ₹650 5 litre: ₹3,090

All three packs contain the same Sagarika Liquid formulation. The larger the pack, the lower your cost per acre. At the standard spray rate of 250 to 500 ml per acre, the 5 litre pack works out to roughly ₹155 to ₹309 per acre per spray, which is the reason most multi-acre farmers and FPOs order the 5 litre.

Shelf life is more than 5 years, so buying the larger pack does not risk wastage across seasons.

Who we are

Sagarika is a product of IFFCO, the Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited, wholly owned by cooperatives and the largest fertiliser cooperative in India. IFFCO is owned by Indian farmers through their cooperative societies, which means the people who buy the product also own the organisation that makes it.

Sagarika Liquid is manufactured in India. The seaweed is cultivated on the southern coast of India, harvested and processed domestically, and extracted through a globally patented process. It is a Made in India product from cultivation through to bottling.

The product is licensed by CSIR, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, and the pack carries organic certification marks for use in certified organic farming.

This is the official Sagarika store

Sagarika Liquid is listed on several online marketplaces and by a number of third party sellers. Some of those listings are genuine. Some are not.

This store is run by IFFCO Sagarika. When you order here, four things are guaranteed that a marketplace listing cannot guarantee:

Genuine product. Seaweed bio-stimulants are among the most counterfeited agricultural inputs in India, because the liquid is easy to imitate visually and hard to test in the field. Stock shipped from this store comes from IFFCO.

Correct batch and shelf life. Every bottle carries a verifiable batch. You are not buying stock that has been sitting in a reseller warehouse for two seasons.

The complete pack range. 500 ml, 1 litre and 5 litre, all three available, at official pricing. Marketplace sellers usually carry only one or two sizes.

Direct agronomy support. Call 1800 103 1967 and you reach IFFCO, not a marketplace seller reading from a product listing. If you need a dosage recommendation for a specific crop at a specific stage, that is the number to call.

Why Sagarika Liquid is the bio-stimulant to buy

Concentration you can verify. Sagarika Liquid is a concentrated seaweed extract, not a diluted tonic sold by volume. It is derived from an appropriate proportion of natural and cultivated seaweed, and the concentration is what determines whether a spray does anything at all.

Two seaweed species, not one. Sagarika uses Kappaphycus alvarezii and Sargassum wightii together in a 1:1 ratio, a red algae and a brown algae. Most seaweed products in the Indian market use a single species. The two species bring different compound profiles, and the blend is what IFFCO's patented process was built around.

The full active fraction, not just the extract. Sagarika carries bio-potash at 8 to 10%, humic and fulvic acid, natural proteins and carbohydrates, essential plant nutrients, and plant growth substances including auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, alginate, betaines and mannitol. This is a wider active profile than a plain seaweed extract.

Suitable for organic farming. Sagarika is a seaweed based liquid bio-stimulant certified for use in organic farming, so it fits an organic programme without a compliance problem.

Compatible with what you already spray. Sagarika Liquid can be tank mixed with all types of insecticides and pesticides. It goes into a spray round you are already making, so it does not cost you a separate pass across the field.

Built by a cooperative, not an importer. A large share of the seaweed bio-stimulants sold in India are imported concentrates rebadged for the local market. Sagarika is cultivated, extracted and bottled in India by a farmer owned cooperative, which is why the pricing works at field scale.

Backed by CSIR licensing and real field use. Sagarika is licensed by CSIR and has been in use across Indian farms for years, on everything from paddy in the east to coffee in Karnataka.

Why Sagarika is a bio-stimulant and not a fertilizer?

This is the question farmers ask most, so it is worth answering plainly.

A fertilizer supplies nutrients. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium go in, the crop takes them up, and uses them as raw material. If your soil is short of nitrogen, only nitrogen fixes that.

A bio-stimulant does something different. It changes how the plant behaves. How well it roots. How efficiently it absorbs and moves the nutrients already available in the soil. How it survives a heat spell or a gap in the rain. How many flowers it sets, and how many of those it keeps through to harvest.

So Sagarika Liquid is not a substitute for urea, DAP, MOP or compost, and it is not an organic fertilizer in the sense of supplying a crop's full nutrient demand. Keep your fertilizer schedule and add Sagarika to it. One of Sagarika's measured effects is an increase in the nutrient use efficiency of both organic and chemical fertilizer already applied, which means more of what you have already spent on nutrition actually reaches the plant instead of being lost.

That is also why Sagarika pays for itself on input cost rather than on input replacement. You are not removing a line from your budget. You are getting more out of the lines that are already there.

Seaweed extract, from Kappaphycus alvarezii and Sargassum wightii in a 1:1 ratio, red and brown marine algae cultivated on India's southern coast.

Humic and fulvic acid, which support nutrient availability and uptake in the root zone.

Bio-potash at 8 to 10%, potassium in a naturally derived form rather than a mineral salt.

Natural plant growth substances, specifically auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins, the compounds behind rooting, cell division and shoot elongation.

Alginate, betaines and mannitol, the natural polysaccharides, osmoprotectants and sugar alcohols that come with a genuine seaweed extract. Betaines in particular are associated with tolerance to drought, heat and salinity.

Natural proteins, carbohydrates and essential plant nutrients, supplementary to your fertilizer rather than a replacement for it.

Use cases: how farmers actually use Sagarika Liquid

Sagarika is a broad-spectrum biostimulant. The same bottle works across completely different cropping systems, which is why one product covers a mixed holding.

Commercial crops: cotton, Jute, Sugarcane, cumin, etc. Used to build early vigour and hold the crop through the hot, dry stretch of the season. In cotton, the pre-flowering and post-flowering sprays are aimed at square and boll retention. In sugarcane, the early spray supports tillering.

Field Crops: Rice, Wheat, Sorghum (Jowar), Bajra etc. Paddy is the single most asked-about crop on this site. The first spray goes in at the tillering stage after transplanting, where it also helps the crop recover from transplant shock. In wheat, jowar and bajra the same three spray schedule supports tillering, grain set and grain filling.

Plantations: Arecanut, Coconut, Coffee, Rubber, Tea, Mulberry, Cocoa etc. Perennial crops are where growers report the clearest year on year difference, because the same trees are observed across seasons. Coffee growers in particular use Sagarika through the flowering and berry development window.

Pulses: Red gram, Green gram, Black gram, Horse gram, Bengal gram, Chickpea, Cow pea, Soybean etc. Pulses drop flowers under heat and moisture stress, and that flower drop is the yield. The pre-flowering and post-flowering sprays are aimed directly at that problem.

Oilseeds: Groundnut, Castor, Linseed, Mustard, Safflower, Sesame, Sunflower etc. Used to support root development early and pod or seed fill later. Groundnut growers typically spray at pegging and again at pod development.

Horticultural Crops: Banana, Citrus, Apple, Guava, Mango, Peach, Apricot, Grapes, Cashewnut, Melons, Papaya, Pomegranate etc. Fruit crops are judged on grade, not just tonnage. Sagarika is used through flowering and fruit development to increase fruit set, reduce drop and improve the quality of what reaches the market.

Vegetables and nursery-raised crops Tomato, chilli, brinjal, okra, onion, potato and similar crops. Used at establishment to reduce transplant shock, then at flowering to hold fruit set through the picking window.

Sagarika Liquid dosage and spray schedule

Spray concentration: 0.25 to 0.5%, which is 2.5 to 5 ml of Sagarika Liquid per litre of water. Per acre, per spray: 250 to 500 ml. Per hectare, per spray: 1 to 2 litres. Sprays per crop cycle: three. Method: foliar spray.

First spray at the plant establishment or tillering stage. Second spray at the pre-flowering stage. Third spray at the post-flowering stage.

Spray in the early morning or late afternoon rather than in peak sun, and cover the foliage evenly, because Sagarika is taken up through the leaf. A 500 ml bottle covers one to two sprays on one acre depending on the concentration you mix at. A 1 litre pack covers a full three spray schedule on one acre. A 5 litre pack covers roughly five acres across a full schedule.

Tank mixing: Sagarika Liquid is compatible with all types of insecticides and pesticides. Run a small jar compatibility test first with any unfamiliar product.
