Description

Paecilomyces lilacinus is a naturally occurring beneficial fungus widely used in agriculture as a bio-nematicide for the management of root-knot, cyst, and lesion nematodes. It works by parasitizing nematode eggs, juveniles, and females, thereby reducing nematode population and preventing further crop damage.

In addition to nematode control, Paecilomyces lilacinus supports healthier root systems by improving root growth and nutrient uptake. It enhances soil microbial balance and helps plants withstand stress caused by nematode infestation, leading to better crop establishment and yield.

This bio-control agent is suitable for a wide range of crops including vegetables, fruits, pulses, cereals, ornamentals, and plantation crops. It can be applied through soil application, seed treatment, nursery treatment, or drip irrigation, making it an eco-friendly and effective solution for sustainable and organic farming practices.
