AZ41 was tested in two sets of experiments (Set A, 4-month-old seedlings and Set B, 7-month-old seedlings) at Bongolanon, Magpet, Cotabato [Philipines]. It is interesting to note that in terms of disease severity and percentage infection of sigatoka on lakatan banana, all three AZ41 treatments showed the least ratings or values (20.03 to 23.08). Similarly, AZ41-treated bananas had significantly lesser weevil damage compared to the other treatments. This strongly suggests the pesticidal efficacy of AZ41 on corn weevil and sigatoka of lakatan banana. The effect of AZ41 on corn weevil and sigatoka of lakatan banana. The effect of AZ41 on plant height and pseudostem circumference of lakatan banana were comparable with other fertilizer treatments, there being no significant differences, except in the untreated control, however AZ41-treated bananas were numerically taller and showed bigger pseudostem circumference. Meanwhile, the yield showed a trend towards heavier fruit bunches in AZ41-treated bananas compared to the untreated control. It appears that AZ41 had a favorable effect on the overall performance of lakatan banana.
