Katyayani Nema Cure – Bio-Nematicide for Soil Health

Katyayani Nema Cure is a liquid bio-nematicide formulated with Paecilomyces lilacinus, a beneficial fungus that naturally controls nematode populations in soil. It targets nematode eggs, juveniles, and adult females, helping to protect crops without harming the environment, humans, or animals.

Target Concerns

• Nematodes: Root-Knot, Cyst, Reniform, Citrus, and Stunt Nematodes
• Other Soil-Borne Issues: White Grubs and harmful soil pathogens

Recommended Crops

• Maize, Sorghum, Soybean, Chickpea, Brinjal, Potato, Capsicum, Tomato, Cucumber, Cardamom
• Ornamental Flowers, Grapes, and various Fruit & Vegetable Crops

Mode of Action

• Spore Activation: Fungal spores attach to nematode eggs, juveniles, or adults.
• Penetration: The fungus develops hyphae that penetrate the nematode’s outer layer.
• Enzyme Secretion: Breaks down the nematode’s structure, weakening it.
• Colonization: The fungus absorbs nutrients from the nematode, leading to its elimination.
• Reproduction: Newly formed spores spread in the soil, targeting more nematodes.

Application & Dosage

• Domestic Use: 5-10 ml per liter of water
• Soil Application: 1-2 liters per acre
• Method: Mix with water and apply as a drench or incorporate into the soil before planting

Key Benefits

• Effectively manages nematodes and soil-borne pathogens
• Supports plant health without harmful residues
• Ideal for integrated pest management (IPM) programs
• Safe for people, pets, and the environment
• Works best when applied before nematode populations become severe
• Results may take a few weeks as the fungus establishes itself in the soil.
