English

Subject field(s)
  • Animal Pests (Crops)
  • Crop Protection
DEF

A substance or preparation used to destroy nematodes.

OBS

Chemical treatment of the soil is one of the most promising means to control plant-parasitic nematodes. This control method depends upon bringing the nematode-toxic chemicals into contact with the nematode in sufficiently high concentrations. Such contact may be accomplished by percolation of the chemicals in water or a gaseous diffusion of a nematocide in the soil. The nematocide must penetrate the nematode body in order to kill it, either through the cuticle or body openings, or during feeding.
