Treatment against corn borer
Trichograms released by drone

The corn borer, the main pest of maize

It can lead to:
  • From 7% to 30% of losses
  • The development of mycotoxin-producing fungi

An ecological corn borer treatment

The trichogramma naturally controls the corn borer
The trichogramma is a mini-wasp that protects the plantations and parasitizes the eggs of the corn borer.
The trichogramma lays one egg in the corn borer egg (up to 80 parasitized corn borer eggs / trichogramma).
A larva hatches and consumes the contents of the egg.
The larva grows larger.
It forms a blackish cocoon that turns into a nymph.
An adult emerges and goes in search of more corn borer eggs.
