Why Malappuram Farmers Choose Bactostore Beauveria Bassiana – Organic, KAU‑Proven, and Compatibility with Other Bioagents

Malappuram’s coconut, rubber, banana, pepper, arecanut, vegetable, and paddy crops are valuable. Insect pests cause massive losses every year – from rhinoceros beetle and pseudostem weevil to thrips, plant hoppers, and fruit borers. Chemical pesticides require multiple products, are expensive, harm beneficial insects and soil health, and pests quickly develop resistance.

Beauveria bassiana is 100% organic – it leaves zero chemical residues on your produce.

What KAU research proves: The Kerala Agricultural University (KAU) Biocontrol Laboratory at Vellayani produces quality biopesticides based on Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, and Lecanicillium lecanii, and has identified an isolate (ITCC6063) effective against rice leaf rollers and other pests. KAU’s Agri Infotech Portal recommends Beauveria for controlling berry borer in coffee (beetles), and sucking pests and lepidopteran pests of crops.

Compatibility with other bioagents – a major advantage: Research has shown that Beauveria bassiana is compatible with Trichoderma viride – they can be applied together in the same field without negative effects. This allows you to combine the broad‑spectrum insect control of Beauveria with the disease control of Trichoderma. Compatibility with Metarhizium anisopliae has also been reported, enabling a multi‑pronged attack on both soil pests and foliar pests in the same application.

Why Beauveria is better than chemical pesticides:



Feature Chemical Pesticides Beauveria bassiana
Residues on produce Yes – can affect export Zero residues – safe
Effect on soil health Kills beneficial organisms Improves soil biology
Pest resistance Develops quickly (2‑3 seasons) Very rare – fungi evolve faster
Waiting period before harvest 7‑30 days required None – spray up to harvest
Spectrum of control Narrow – need multiple products Broad – over 200 pests
Compatibility with other bioagents Often toxic to bioagents Compatible with Trichoderma, Metarhizium
Organic certification Not allowed Allowed and encouraged
