The invention provides nematocide control diacylimide compositions which include compounds having the formula: STR1 where R and R' are selected from alkyl, alkenyl, haloalkyl and haloalkenyl having from 1-5 carbon atoms, being the same or different groups. The compositions of this invention show excellent agricultural nematocidal activity, and particularly, the control of endoparasitic and ectoparasitic worms, such as the root knot nematocide, which exist in the soil at some stage of their life cycles. The diacylimide compounds generally are prepared by reacting a suitable amide with an acyl halide. The acyl halide precursor may be prepared, if necessary, from the corresponding acid by reaction with a suitable halogenating agent, such as thionyl chloride. Similarly, a given amide may be readily prepared, for example, from the corresponding acyl halide by reaction with ammonia.
