★★★★★
Continuous cropping had increased soil pest incidence and reduced crop performance. After SLN Rootosol was introduced, biological control of soil insects improved naturally. Root damage reduced and plant survival improved noticeably. Crops maintained better growth during the season and overall field health improved, reducing the need for chemical soil treatments.
Arul Selvan, Villupuram, Tamil Nadu
★★★★★
Vegetable crops had been affected by soil grubs and root feeding pests, leading to patchy growth. SLN Rootosol was applied during soil preparation and early crop stages. Over time, root systems strengthened and pest pressure reduced. Crop uniformity improved and plant vigor remained stable throughout the cycle. Marketable yield increased due to healthier plant stands.

Roots developed better and nutrient uptake improved. Plants showed stronger growth and pod filling became more consistent. The harvest reflected better quality and higher productivity compared to previous seasons.
About SLN Rootosol
Advanced Biofungicide That Targets Soil Insects And Protects Root Systems Safely
SLN Rootosol contains highly active spores of Metarhizium anisopliae, a naturally occurring fungus that infects and eliminates soil insects such as white grubs, termites, weevils, root caterpillars and soil borers.
Suitable for vegetables, fruits, plantations, spices, field crops and nursery crops.
Product Overview
Natural And Effective Protection Against Soil Pests For Stronger Root Growth
Metarhizium anisopliae is widely recognized for its ability to infect soil pests through direct contact. The spores attach to the insect body, germinate and grow inside the insect, ultimately eliminating the pest while being completely safe for plants.
Key Highlights
- Controls white grubs and root feeding insects
- Protects roots from early stage damage
- Enhances plant establishment and seedling survival
- Works effectively across all soil types
- Safe for the environment and beneficial organisms
- Ideal for organic and integrated crop management
- Reduces dependency on chemical insecticides
- Provides long lasting root zone protection
SLN Rootosol ensures stronger roots, healthier growth and reduced crop loss due to soil insects.
Composition
High Potency Metarhizium anisopliae Formulation For Maximum Field Performance
SLN Rootosol contains
- Active spores of Metarhizium anisopliae
- Stabilized carrier for powder formulation
- Liquid formulation with enhanced spore viability
- High colony forming units for strong soil colonization
- Bioactive metabolites that support insect infection process
Each batch is tested for potency, purity and virulence against target soil insects.
How SLN Rootosol Works To Control Soil Insects Naturally
SLN Rootosol contains Metarhizium anisopliae, a beneficial entomopathogenic fungus that specifically targets harmful soil insects.
When the fungal spores come into contact with a soil pest, they attach to its body surface, germinate and penetrate the insect’s cuticle.
How The Fungus Eliminates Soil Pests
- Spores attach to the insect body
- Germination begins under moist soil conditions
- Fungus penetrates the insect skin
- The insect becomes weak and stops feeding
- The fungus multiplies internally and eliminates the pest
- New spores spread into the soil and continue protection
Additional Biological Advantages
- Survives well in the rhizosphere
- Multiplies under natural soil conditions
- Creates a long lasting protective zone around crop roots
- Remains effective without harming crops
SLN Rootosol acts as a natural protective shield for roots against damaging pests.
