BENEFICIAL NEMATODES FOR HORTI- AND AGRICULTURE
Biological plant protection products based on entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) control pests in agriculture and horticulture in a natural way. Certain nematode species are the natural antagonists of numerous pest insects and can control them in a targeted and effective manner without harming other organisms.
Greenhouse operators, fruit and vegetable growers, farmers, hobby gardeners and many more around the world use beneficial nematodes and appreciate their effectiveness and ease of use. Nematodes are simply mixed with water and applied via irrigation. They are compatible with many other products and can therefore be integrated into existing work processes.

HOW BENEFICIAL NEMATODES ARE PRODUCED
The production of entomopathogenic nematodes is a complex process. In bioreactors, the nematodes are brought together with their symbiotic bacteria under sterile conditions and the right conditions are created for the nematodes to reproduce. Over the years, we have continuously optimised these processes and scaled them up to industrial-scale production. In this video, we give you a little insight into our nematode production.
