Our company as a small scale liquid fertilizer manufacturer, investigated the organic pesticide JS that you have introduced on the internet, I intend to popularize that product in sri Lanka as an environment friendly product and I hope for your support in solving some of the problems that have arisen. Among the ingredients used in the production of JS, there are also ingredients that are difficult to find it is necessary to know whether there are other substitutes for that. For example, can non ionic surfactant be used instead of JWA? And would also like to know the substitutes for ingredients like RED CLAY,ROCK POWDER,PHYLLITE POWDER ets…
Thank you,

Decyl glucoside (C16H32O6) can be used as a non-ionic surfactant. It is a substance that falls under EPA List4B and CAS NO: 41444-55-7. It can also be used in hard water. Please test use about 1L based on 500L. JS is complete without using RED CLAY, ROCK POWDER, or PHYLLITE POWDER. In this case, no precipitation is required.
