SOIL FUMIGATION OF YOUR ORCHARD CREATES A HEALTHY SOIL ENVIRONMENT
YOUR ORCHARD PRESCRIPTION
The product rate and application method are determined by crop and pathogen pressure. After evaluation, your representative will prescribe the treatment that is right for your field.
DEEP SHANK BROADCAST
This method injects the fumigant deep into the ground over the whole planting site. Commonly done with narrowly spaced, knife-type shanks with tubes attached to deliver the fumigant.
DEEP SHANK STRIP
This method injects the fumigant deep into the ground in strips or rows and only treats the designated portion of the field. This approach uses less chemical per field acre which can help with bufferzones.
PROBE PRECISION
The Probe Precision process starts with excavating the tree site, backfilling it, and then injecting the fumigant to the specific site with a probe.
