Katyayani Nema Prime (Pochonia Chlamydosporia 1% WP) is an advanced bio-nematicide in powder form, designed to manage nematode infestations in a wide range of crops. It effectively targets plant-parasitic nematodes, including root-knot, false root-knot, and cyst nematodes, by parasitizing their eggs, juveniles, and adult females. Suitable for crops like eggplant, tomato, chilies, pepper, cardamom, ornamentals, and greenhouse plants, it also supports eco-friendly, sustainable farming practices.
