Red Ochre
A 100% natural, highly pure iron oxide mineral essential for orchard and horticulture management. Applied as a protective paste, it acts as a robust physical barrier against fungal infections, insect borers, and severe sunscald while gradually enriching the surrounding soil with vital iron.
The traditional, natural defense for healthy orchards and trees.
Khicha Phoschem Ltd. introduces Amber brand Red Ochre, widely known in Indian agriculture as Geru. For generations, this iron-rich earth pigment has been an indispensable tool for farmers managing fruit orchards and forestry. When mixed into a paste and applied to tree trunks, Red Ochre serves as a powerful shield. It stops crawling insects, deters fungal spores, and protects vulnerable bark from extreme weather. Furthermore, as the coating naturally washes off over time, it deposits beneficial iron oxide into the root zone, acting as a mild, slow-release soil conditioner.
Coating your trees with this natural mineral provides immediate physical protection and long-term health benefits.
