The effect of the biological nematocide Savitan and the Lumbrical and Lumbrex biofertilizerson the growth characteristics of tomato and pepper varieties cultivated in greenhouses on soil, contaminated with root-knot nematodes, was studied. A strong stimulating effect on the growth and development of the experimental plants of the biofertilizer-treated variants was reported, thus providing a greater photosynthetic surface of the plant, which in turn affected the total yield-up to 7,500 kg/da for pepper and a 115.7% increase for the Opal tomato variety.
