Buy Metarhizium Anisopliae Bio-Insecticide for Vegetables, Groundnut and Maize – Control Cutworms, White Grubs, Termites and Caterpillars

Palakkad’s vegetable, groundnut, and maize farmers face multiple pest challenges. Cutworms cut seedlings at the base overnight. White grubs feed on roots, causing wilting. Termites attack stems. Caterpillars defoliate crops. Chemical pesticides are expensive and often miss cutworms that hide in soil or grubs deep underground.

Metarhizium anisopliae bio-insecticide is your organic, broad‑spectrum solution for soil and foliar pests.
