Mode of action - uptake of nutrients
  • During the infection of nematodes, the nematophagous fungi penetrate the surface (Cuticle) of the nematode and digest the internal tissues of the host. The nematode cuticle is composed of proteins including collagen. Proteolytic enzymes produced from the fungus have an important role during the penetration. These

    fungi parasitize vermiform adult or larval nematodes and parasitize eggs or cyst.

    Dosage

    Dissolve 1 Kg or 500ml of V-NEMATO + 1 Kg Jaggery in 400 lit water drench around base of each plant/around the root zone area

Recommended Crops
  • Vegetables, Banana, Pineapples, Grapes, Strawberries, Citrus, Peach, Ornamentals, Tobacco, Nut trees and other Agricultural and Horticultural crops.

Method of application
  • Mix the required amount of V-NEMATO along with required amount of water and jaggery, stir well to form a uniform suspension. Spray / drench around base of the each plant immediately after preparation.

    Spraying should be done during early morning or evening hours. For speedy kill, higher dosage may be applied. Use natural wetting agent for better results.

    Timing

     

    In general 14 days before planting, 6 weeks after planting, repeat every 6 weeks for 4 months.
