Hello house. What are the available nematicides in nigeria for use in crop farming?

RE: Nematicides Question - FarmKing - 10-19-2022

There is chlorpyrifos granules e.g. Rocket or vy-king. Oxamyl in Wormforce. Velum Prime contains Fluopyram.

It is costly oo. One(250ml) will cover 1 acre. Application thru soil/root. Its more than just a nematicide, also fungicidal. See the image below for dosage.

Thank you. I prefer Rocket because of price. How do I apply it?

I apply it in a circle hole round the plant when they are still seedlings (within 1-2 days after germination). Apply and cover with soil. Irrigate as soon as possible.

To prevent nematodes from becoming resistant to nematicides, don't just use only one type all the time. Rotate them.

Pls what about liquid Chlorpyrifos. Can it be used instead of the solid one?

RE: Nematicides Question - Hunter - 10-22-2022

Thanks. So like what quantity of Rocket should I apply per plant?

They put it at 1g/m2. But I just do it as shown in the picture below because I don't have the applicator that can do that.
