Why Palakkad Farmers Choose Bactostore Beauveria Bassiana Bio-Insecticide – Organic, KAU‑Proven, Endophytic & Compatible

Palakkad’s farmers face the challenge of pests that live inside plants – borers in paddy stems, weevils in banana pseudostems, grubs in coconut trunks, and fruit borers in vegetables. Chemical pesticides cannot reach these pests, and residues can harm export quality. Beauveria bassiana bio-insecticide offers a unique, endophytic solution.

What makes Beauveria different from other bio‑insecticides? Beauveria can colonise the internal tissues of plants – roots, stems, leaves, and even fruits. When applied as a seed treatment, root dip, or injection, the fungus moves with the plant and stays inside, ready to kill any borer that feeds. This provides long‑lasting protection that chemical sprays cannot match.

KAU research and production: The Kerala Agricultural University (KAU) Biocontrol Laboratory produces Beauveria bassiana and has identified isolates effective against rice leaf rollers, stem borers, and other pests. KAU’s Agri Infotech Portal recommends Beauveria for controlling berry borer in coffee and lepidopteran pests of crops.

Compatibility with other bioagents – a practical advantage for Palakkad farmers: Research has shown that Beauveria bassiana is compatible with Trichoderma viride – they can be applied together without negative effects. This allows you to combine Beauveria (for insect control) with Trichoderma (for disease control) in a single application. Compatibility with Metarhizium anisopliae has also been reported, enabling a multi‑pronged attack on both soil pests and foliar pests.

Why Beauveria bio-insecticide is better than chemical pesticides:
