Culture means for stimulating the mass production of conidia and blastospores of entomopathogen fungi of the Beauveria sp genus, or any other entomopathogen fungi genus, in liquid medium fermentation. A carbon source is included as well as a nitrogen source, inorganic salts, deionised water and tridecyl alcohol. The components of the culture means, specially the tridecyl alcohol, stimulate the production of conidia and blastospores in almost 95% of the total biomass in a short period of time, with regard to the typical periods of time in which conidia were obtained, either in liquid means or solid means fermentation, thus obtaining remarkable concentrations of these cellular structures up to the 120 hours approximately, and plenty mycelium. The present invention therefore is of substantial importance in processes where large amounts of conidia and blastospores are required as raw material for the formulation of bioinscticides, emphasizing the absence of mycelium, which is reflected in the reduction of operations and costs.
