Description
Crown is a biological insecticide based on Beauveria bassiana 1.15% W.P. with a minimum spore count of 1 × 10⁸ CFU/g. It provides broad-spectrum biological control of sucking pests, borers, caterpillars and soil-dwelling pests. The fungal spores attach to susceptible insects, germinate and penetrate their outer body, multiply internally and produce toxins that disrupt vital functions, ultimately leading to pest mortality.

Mode of Action
- When Beauveria bassiana spores contact an insect, they germinate and penetrate the cuticle. Inside, the fungus rapidly spreads and produces toxins that stop feeding, cause paralysis, and eventually kill the insect within 4–5 days. After death, the fungus grows through the cuticle with thin layer of white mold.
