Abstract
The article reflects the results of experiments on the development of an insecticidal biological product for plant protection against insects and their larvae based on strains of the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. On the basis of theoretical and experimental data, four certified strains of B. thuringiensis of different subspecies were selected, growth media for the industrial cultivation of each strain and the duration of cultivation to achieve at least 108 CFU/ml in the biological product were chosen. The storage conditions of the preparation were tested and optimal temperatures and preservation methods were selected.
