Beauveria bassiana for Rose Farms

Beauveria bassiana can be considered for biological management of susceptible insect pests where its use is supported by the registered product label.

Successful microbial pest management depends on target pest, application timing, coverage, viable count, formulation and environmental conditions.

Applications are generally most useful when pest populations are detected early.

Application for Rose Farms

Beauveria bassiana can be incorporated into suitable foliar spray and pest-management programs.

Good spray coverage is important because entomopathogenic fungi generally require contact with susceptible insect hosts.

Application rates and target-pest claims should follow the applicable registered label.

Integrated Pest Management

Beauveria bassiana can be combined within a broader IPM strategy involving crop scouting, sanitation, pest monitoring, biological control and compatible crop-protection practices.

Compatibility should be considered when microbial fungi and conventional fungicides are used within the same production program.
