Products
GoBioFarming biological products offer natural solutions to repair depleted soils and protect crops. Soil restoration especially in tree and row crops is not just a hospital treatment but a process to get better crops and restore the soil simultaneously Available for consultation or for replenishing existing projects, these formulations harness nature’s own defence systems to restore balance to your farmland.

Tricoderma spp.
Biological Fungicide Concentrate for Comprehensive Crop Protection
About
Trichoderma spp. are beneficial fungi widely used as biological crop-protection agents, especially against soil-borne pathogens and certain foliar diseases. Their scientific advantages include strong rhizosphere competence, competition for space and nutrients, mycoparasitism against pathogenic fungi, production of antifungal metabolites, and secretion of cell-wall-degrading enzymes such as chitinases and glucanases. In addition to direct pathogen suppression, Trichoderma can stimulate root development, improve nutrient uptake, and prime plant defence pathways through induced systemic resistance, thereby increasing crop tolerance to biotic stress and often improving plant vigor.
Highlights
- Suppresses plant pathogens by competition, antibiosis, and mycoparasitism.
- Produces enzymes and metabolites that disrupt pathogen growth and infection.
- Enhances root growth and nutrient-use efficiency.
- Induces systemic resistance, helping plants respond faster to disease pressure.
- Supports reduced dependence on conventional fungicides within IPM programs.
Why Choose Trichoderma?
Trichoderma species deliver triple-action benefits that make them ideal for sustainable farming:
Adaptability: Thrives in diverse environmental conditions
Dual Defense: Combats pathogens through both enzyme production and antibiotic compounds
Growth Boost: Enhances root development and nutrient uptake
How It Works
Mycoparasitism: Secretes chitinase and protease enzymes to break down harmful fungi
Antibiotic Production: Releases polypeptides that suppress pathogen growth
Systemic Benefits: Research shows increased resistance in crops like maize
Proven Results
Increases seed germination rates
Improves plant stress tolerance
Reduces nematode damage through physical penetration
Beauveria bassiana + Metarhizium spp.
Biological Insecticide Concentrate for Targeted Pest Control
About
Products containing Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium spp. are based on entomopathogenic fungi used for biological insect control. Their scientific advantages lie in their contact infection process: spores attach to the insect cuticle, germinate under suitable environmental conditions, penetrate the cuticle using mechanical pressure and enzymes, proliferate within the insect, and ultimately cause mortality. These fungi are valued for broad activity against multiple insect groups, compatibility with integrated pest management, and potential to persist in the soil or rhizosphere. In some systems they can also colonize plant tissues endophytically, contributing to indirect plant protection and, in certain cases, growth-promoting effects.
Highlights
- Provides biological control of insect pests through direct cuticle infection rather than conventional chemical toxicity.
- Useful for resistance-management programs because the mode of action differs from many synthetic insecticides.
- Can target pests in canopy or soil-associated habitats, depending on the fungal strain and formulation.
- May establish in the rhizosphere or as endophytes, supporting longer-term ecological benefits in some cropping systems.
- Fits well within integrated pest management strategies aimed at reducing chemical residues and preserving beneficial organisms.
Natural Insect Management
Our formula combines two powerful fungi:
Beauveria bassiana (discovered 1815)
Metarhizium anisopliae (naturally occurring)
Effective Application
Spray Preparation: Mix 40-50mL per 10L water (knapsack) or 1L/ha
Optimal Conditions: Apply when humidity supports fungal growth
Enhanced Efficacy: Add 0.2% neem/mineral oil for better coverage
Safety & Performance
Kills pests within 2-5 days via cuticle penetration
Leaves visible white/green spore masses on infected insects
Harmless to humans, animals, and beneficial insects
How to use:
For biocontrol, the microscopic spores of the fungi are sprayed on affected areas, and when the spores come into contact with the body of an insect, they germinate, and the hyphae that emerge penetrate the cuticle. The fungus
then develops inside the insect, killing it after a few days.
The level of insect control (mortality) depends on the number of spores applied and weather conditions.
Oil, such as Neem oil (Bio-Neem) or mineral oil at 0.2%, contributes to the effectiveness of the entomopathogenic fungi.
Thorough coverage of the plant surface (insects) is essential for the product’s efficacy.
Both fungi do not infect humans or animals and are considered safe for use as an insecticide.
Dosage: 1 Litre/ha
Knapsack sprayers: 40 – 50 mL/10 Litre
