Abstract

A process for the preparation of a growth media for mass multiplication of bio-control fungi, comprising a chopped, shade-dried distillation waste in a plastic bag that is plugged with cotton followed by autoclaving and an inoculation of a strain of bio-control fungi such as Trichoderma harzianum or Gliocladium virens, and incubating the bags at room temperature for 14-30 days, and then shade drying and grinding the product to obtain a fine powder.
