Benefits of Nematode Gel Formulation

Cryptobiosis

Cryptobiosis is a slowed state of life in which organisms can remain dormant for long periods of time, awaiting more favorable living conditions.

This characteristic is particularly attractive for nematodes used in agriculture, as it means that they can survive for months without food or water.

Gel formulation

The gel formulation of nematodes consists of mixing them with a gel that keeps them alive and protects them from the external environment. This gel is easy to apply and can be used for a variety of pests.

Aspect

More or less moist granular wettable powder that gels once you add water!

Benefits

• Protection : The gel formulation protects nematodes from heat, UV rays, insects and other environmental factors that could kill them.
• Effectiveness : Nematodes are better protected and have a longer lifespan in the gel formulation, which increases their effectiveness in controlling pests.
• Ease of Use : The gel formulation is easy to apply and can be used on a variety of crops, making it a convenient solution for farmers, gardeners and green plant enthusiasts.

In conclusion, the nematode gel formulation offers many benefits, including increased protection, improved efficacy, and ease of use. These advantages, combined with the ability of nematodes to survive in cryptobiosis, make it an attractive solution for users seeking effective and sustainable pest control.

The gel formulation allows better dissolution of nematodes and prolonged suspension . In fact, nematodes sediment less quickly in sprayers, making their use easier.

Finally, 100% of the clay contained in the previous formulations has been removed, thus removing the whitish residues sometimes present on flowers and fruits, in the case of foliar use.
