A study conducted by the International
Institute of Bio Technology
and Toxicology on the bio efficacy
of Plasma Karanja Cake in controlling
tomato root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne
incognita), concluded that
the efficacy of Plasma Karanja
Cake granules was superior to
that of commercial neem cake
and was on par to that of Carbofuran™,
the only recommended chemical
nematicide in the market.
