Product Summary
NematoLock is a bio-fungal formulation designed to prevent the proliferation of soil pathogens, particularly nematodes. The fungal agents in NematoLock inhibit the growth and spread of nematodes, protecting crops from infection.
Mechanism of Action
The fungal agents in NematoLock release bioactive compounds that create an unfavorable environment for nematodes. Additionally, these fungi attack nematodes by:
- Producing enzymes that break down nematode cell walls.
- Encapsulating nematodes with fungal hyphae, leading to cell rupture and death.
Target Nematode Pathogens
- Ectoparasitic Nematodes (Stem & Bulb Nematodes)
- Semi Endo-parasitic Nematodes (Seed Gall Nematodes)
- Migratory Endo-parasitic Nematodes (Termites)
- Sedentary Endo-parasitic Nematodes (Case Worm / Cut Worm)

Product Application
Soil Application
- Dissolve 1-2L of NematoLock in 100L of water for 1 acre of land.
- For 1 hectare, use 2.5-5L of NematoLock.
- For optimal results, apply through drip irrigation near the root zone.
Major Highlights
- Comprehensive Nematode Control: NematoLock effectively targets a wide range of nematodes, including both ectoparasitic and endoparasitic species, ensuring complete protection for crops.
- Crop Protection for High-Value Crops: NematoLock is particularly beneficial for crops such as Pomegranate, Grapes, Ginger, and Papaya, which are highly susceptible to nematode infections. Regular application helps maintain crop health and improves yield.
- Prevention of Soil-Borne Infections: By controlling nematodes, NematoLock also reduces the risk of secondary infections caused by soil-borne pathogens, ultimately improving soil health and plant vigor.
- Effective Against Termites and Pathogenic Worms: In addition to nematodes, NematoLock is effective in preventing damages caused by termites and other harmful soil-borne organisms, providing dual protection for crops.
- Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Solution: NematoLock is a biological product that works naturally to suppress nematodes without harming beneficial soil organisms, making it a sustainable alternative to chemical nematicides.
Storage & Precautions
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Keep the product sealed when not in use to maintain efficacy.
