Description

 Fish Amino Acid for plants (Meen Amilam)

Meen is a highly concentrated fish amino acid fertilizer, created through the fermentation of fish, organic palm sugar, and bananas. This organic solution enhances soil fertility, strengthens plant immunity, and acts as a natural growth stimulant and insecticide.

Usage Instructions 

Application & Dilution:

• Foliar Spray: Mix 100ml of FAA with 1 litre of water and spray onto leaves.
• Soil/Irrigation Application: Dilute 1 litre in 50 litres of water and apply to plant roots using irrigation systems or venturis.

Recommended Frequency:

• Young Plants/Seedlings: Apply every 15 days.
• Mature Plants & Crops: Use monthly.
• Intensive Cultivation: Apply every 2-3 weeks for optimal yield.

Benefits of fish amino acid  for Plants

✔ Provides essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, sulphur, phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen.
✔ Enhances root development and promotes microbial activity for improved soil health.
✔ Boosts plant metabolism, encouraging strong and healthy growth.
✔ Strengthens plant resistance against pests and diseases, reducing chemical dependency.
✔ Naturally enhances crop flavor and nutritional value.
✔ Eco-friendly and sustainable, supporting regenerative agriculture.

Understanding Meen Amilam

It is a fish-based liquid fertilizer widely used in Tamil Nadu. Organic farmers depend on it due to its high nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium content, which are crucial for healthy plant growth.

Nutritional Content 

It is packed with vital nutrients:

• Essential Amino Acids: Methionine and lysine enhance plant resilience and development.
• Minerals: Contains calcium, magnesium, and iron to improve plant and soil health.
• Beneficial Enzymes: Improve nutrient absorption and plant metabolism.

Meen amilam  vs. Chemical Fertilizers

•  FAA: Enhances soil health, supports sustainable farming, and is environmentally safe.
• Chemical Fertilizers: Provide rapid growth but degrade soil fertility over time and contribute to pollution.

How Meen Amilam is Used in Farming

• Foliar Spray: Mix with water (1:100 ratio) and spray directly on leaves.
• Soil Application: Blend with irrigation water for improved nutrient absorption.
• Compost Booster: Speeds up compost decomposition, enriching the soil.

Meen amilam in Organic Farming

It plays a vital role in sustainable agriculture, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers while preserving long-term soil fertility.

Sources of Meen amilam (FAA )

Fish amino acids come from various sources, each offering unique benefits. The three primary sources include:

1. Whole Fish & Fish Meal

Uses of Whole Fish:

Whole fish is processed into fish meal, a high-protein product used in animal feed and aquaculture.

Fish Meal Production Process:

1. Cooking
2. Pressing to remove oils
3. Drying
4. Grinding into powder

Benefits in Animal Feed and Aquaculture:

• High in vital amino acids and protein
• Enhances growth in livestock and aquatic animals
• Improves feed conversion efficiency

2. Fish Hydrolysate

What is Fish Hydrolysate?

Fish hydrolysate is a liquid extract obtained by enzymatically breaking down fish proteins into amino acids.

Hydrolysis Process:

1. Raw fish materials are treated with natural enzymes.
2. Proteins break down into smaller components.
3. The final product is filtered and stored as a liquid or powder.

Uses in Agriculture and Human Nutrition:

• Organic fertilizers to enhance plant growth
• Dietary supplements and functional foods
• Improves soil microbial activity in farming

3. Fish By-products

What are Fish By-products?

Fish by-products include waste materials from fish processing, such as heads, bones, and skin.

Conversion Process into Amino Acids:

1. Collection of waste materials
2. Enzymatic treatment to break down proteins
3. Final product used in various applications

Applications in Various Industries:

• Pet food and livestock feed
• Fertilizers and soil enhancers
• Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics

 

Meen Amilam for Coconut: The Power of Fish Amino Acid for Coconut Trees

Benefits of FAA for Coconut Trees

1. Improves Soil Fertility
It enhances soil microbial activity, leading to better soil aeration and nutrient availability for coconut trees.
2. Enhances Plant Growth and Root Development
The amino acids in fish amino acid stimulate root growth, ensuring stronger and healthier coconut trees.
3. Increases Coconut Yield
Regular application of meen amilam results in higher coconut production by promoting flower and fruit development.
4. Boosts Disease Resistance
The nutrients and beneficial microbes in fish amino acid help coconut trees resist common diseases and pests.
5. Environmentally Friendly Alternative to Chemical Fertilizers
Unlike synthetic fertilizers, it is 100% organic, reducing soil degradation and chemical runoff into water bodies.

How to Apply FAA (Meen Amilam) to Coconut Trees

For coconut trees:  For 1 year or older trees, use approx 50ml of fish amino in 3 litres of water and pour it around the tree in the soil. If have many trees in farms with drip irrigation facility, use 3 litre of fish amino in 200 litre barrel with water and supply it through venturi. If no venturi, then take 3 litre of this mixture from barrel for each tree and supply manually.

Methods of Apllication:

1. Soil Application Method

• Dilute fish amino acid with water (1:100 ratio) and pour it around the base of the coconut tree.

2. Foliar Spray Method

• Mix fish amino acid with water (1:500 ratio) and spray it on the leaves for direct absorption.

3. Best Time and Frequency of Application

• Apply once every two weeks during the growing season for best results.

It  offers a natural, sustainable, and highly effective way to nourish plants while preserving soil health for future generations.
