Definition

Granules are a chemical pesticide against nematodes.

Effect of granules on nematodes

Mode of action

Granules do not kill nematodes but temporarily paralyse them. After a few weeks, they recover and can still cause damage. This delay gives the crop a head start, reducing harm.

Benefits

Granules help limit yield losses and reduce nematode reproduction, improving crop performance.

Profitability

Effectiveness depends on nematode type, infestation level, and crop. For severe infestations, only full-field application is cost-effective.
