Biotrinsic® Z15 -- Bionemiticide for Corn and Soybean Crops

Biotrinsic® Z15 is a bionematicide that makes corn and soybean crops nematode-resistant. It is a microbial seed treatment that combines defense and protective actions to inhibit nematodes' development and reproductive life cycle, all without negatively impacting soil health or beneficial nematodes. Parasitic nematodes, or roundworms, are a huge problem in the agricultural industry, causing over $1.5 billion in losses annually. Indigo AG, the company that developed this technology, isolates a naturally occurring strain of Streptomyces sp from corn.
