The mixture of Trichoderma isolates may be effective in controlling plant pathogens. The biocontrol agent for use against soil and air-borne fungal pathogens may be formulated as a wettable powder. The biocontrol agent may be used in the treatment or prevention of infection of date palms with Thielaviopsis punctulata. In a further embodiment, the biocontrol agent may be used in the treatment or prevention of infection of cucumbers with Rhizoctonia solanii.
