Nematodes are one of the major problems faced by 20,000 species of nematodes identified so far. Nematodes feed on plant roots and consequently reduce the water and nutrient uptake, which
results in a reduction in yield. In addition, the infested plant becomes more vulnerable to other stress factors such as heat, nutrient deficiencies and disease-causing organisms.

Bio nematicides are natural, safe, and effective control agents against nematodes. Bio nematicides differ from traditional chemical pesticides because they target specific pests without affecting beneficial organisms, such as soil microbes and earthworms, that help sustain plant growth. In addition to being non-toxic to humans, bio nematicides have a lower risk of contaminating groundwater sources like lakes, rivers, and streams as they do not leach into the surrounding environment after application. This contamination-free feature owes to bio nematicides’ inherent property of not leaching into the environment after application to crops.

Before bio-nematicide | Trishul Biotech

Bio nematicides are classified based on their mode of action into four groups:

  • Biocontrol agents
  • Bio pesticides
  • Bio herbicides
  • Bio fungicides

They have also been known to improve soil structure by increasing organic matter levels, which improves soil health.

Bio nematicides are effective at controlling the following pests:

  • Pythium
  • Fusarium wilt

The benefits of bio nematicides include:

  • They are cost-effective.
  • They do not require special equipment or safety precautions while handling.
  • Bio nematicides can be used in tandem with chemical fertilizers and pesticides. However,

their effectiveness might decrease.

  • Bionematicides have low toxicity levels.
  • They won’t damage plants because they do not contain harsh chemicals like traditional pesticides.
