Results are presented on the use of coconut water, being an agro-industrial by-product. This by-product is an excellent source of carbohydrates and salts. For high yields of toxins and spores of B. thuringiensis, however, the addition of a nitrogen source would be recommendable. As a control medium, sugar cane molasses mixed with corn steep liquor was used, which was developed earlier at UNICAMP with good results.  abagasse  abiological control  acorn  afermentation  awater  aBacillus Thuringiensis  aBacterial insecticide  aBioinsecticide  aBiological insecticide  aCarbohydrate  aCoconut  aProduction  aSalt  aSource  aSugar cane1 aCAPALBO, D.
