Pochonia-Chlamydosporia
POCHONIA CHLAMYDOSPORIA
Pochonia Chlamydosporia is a beneficial fungus that is effective for control against parasitic nematodes. The most effective colonizer to infect eggs of nematodes and preventing them to develop. The spores of this fungus will come into the cuticle of the nematode, paralyzing the hist and eventually killing them.
Benefits : Effective in nematode control, induce systemic resistance, contributes to the reduction of the use of toxic chemicals, highly specific to a particular pest, provide a long-term solution to a pest problem, no environmental residual effects, not a contributor to environmental pollution, do not develop pests resistance, rapidly degradable, effective in very small quantities, environment friendly, relatively cheaper, friendly to non-target species.
Target Pest : Southern root-nematode, root-knot nematode, False root knot nematodes, Burrowing nematodes, cyst nematodes, Root lesion nematodes

Soluble Powder
Potency : 2x10^6 CFU per g
Soil application (Soil drench or Drip irrigation) : 1 Acre dose: 10-50 Kg, 1 Ha dose: 25-125 Kg,
Seasonal crops : First application: At land preparation stage / sowing / planting, Second application: Three weeks after first application
Soil application (Soil drench or Drip irrigation) for Long duration crops / Orchards / Perennials : 1 Acre dose:1-5 kg, 1 Ha dose: 2.5 – 12.5 Kg, Apply 2 times in 1 Year. Before onset of monsoon and after monsoon.
Seed Dressing : 1 Kg seed: 10g Pochonia Chlamydosporia + 10 g crude sugar
Seed Dressing Method : Mix Pochonia Chlamydosporia with crude sugar in sufficient water to make a slurry and coat seeds and dry in shade and sow / broadcast / dibble in the field. Do not store treated / coated seeds more than 24 hrs
Soil Application Method :
-
Mix Pochonia Chlamydosporia at recommended doses with compost and apply at early life stages of crop along with other biofertilizers. Apply twice for seasonal crops like vegetables. First application: At land preparation stage / sowing / planting. Second application: Three weeks after first application.
-
Drip Irrigation: If there are insoluble particles, filter the solution and add to drip tank.
-
Long duration crops / Perennial / Orchard crops: Dissolve Pochonia Chlamydosporia at recommended doses in sufficient water and apply as a drenching spray near root zone four times a year. It is recommended to have first application before the onset of the main monsoon / rainfall/ spring season and second application after the main monsoon / rainfall / autumn/ fall season.
-
Pochonia Chlamydosporia may be used along with Paecilomyces lilacinus as a very effective Nematode control application
Recommended Crops : Vegetables, Fruits, Spices , Flowers , Medicinal crops , Orchards and Ornamentals.
Compatibility : Compatible with Bio Pesticides, Bio Fertilizers and Plant growth hormones but not with chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides

Paecilomyces-Lilacinus
Serratia-Marcescens
VERTICILLIUM CHLAMYDOSPORIUM
Verticillium Chlamydosporium is a beneficial fungus that is effective to use as Biological nematicide which produces enzymes that penetrates on the cuticle/eggshell of the parasitic nematodes that makes them paralyze and eventually killing them.
Benefits : Suppressed the populations of soil borne/parasitic nematode, highly specific to a particular pest, provide a long-term solution to a pest problem, no environmental residual effects, not a contributor to environmental pollution, do not develop pests resistance, rapidly degradable, effective in very small quantities, environment friendly, relatively cheaper, friendly to non-target species, reduce and eliminate pests population rapidly
Target Pest : Roundworms, Cyst nematode, Root-knot nematodes.

Verticillium-Chlamydosporium
Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodite is a tiny nematode of barely less than two millimeters long (often visible only with a microscope) that enters into the bodies of slugs and parasites them, producing between 200 to 300 other nematodes in the process.[Read more]
