Trichoderma harzianum is a beneficial fungus widely used in agriculture for its biocontrol properties and ability to promote plant growth. It works by colonizing plant roots, outcompeting harmful pathogens, and producing enzymes that break down fungal cell walls.
There are various technologies and formulations available for applying Trichoderma harzianum. For example, Tricho-Shield™ is a talc-based formulation containing multiple Trichoderma species, designed to improve root health and balance soil microorganisms. Another approach involves using Trichoderma harzianum as a biological fertilizer, which enhances disease resistance, root development, and environmental tolerance
