This poster presents a greenhouse study on the control of Fusarium wilt in lettuce and tomato using insect frass produced by Hermetia illucens. Different frass dosages were tested, showing that untreated frass significantly reduced disease severity, while heat-treated frass partially lost its suppressive effect, suggesting a role of native microflora. The work highlights the potential of insect-derived amendments as sustainable tools for plant disease management.
