With its rich soils, diverse climates, and innovative farming techniques, California has cultivated an impressive array of more than 400 commodities. Remarkably, the state is the sole producer of key crops such as almonds, artichokes, celery, garlic, kiwifruit, and walnuts
The California Council on Science and Technology (CCST), commissioned a report by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation underscoring chloropicrin in modern agriculture. No alternative can replace this soil fumigant, and its role in managing soil-borne pests in high-value crops.
The success of TriCal, Inc.’s Fifth Coastal Meeting reflects the continued commitment to innovation and partnership across the industry. The highlight was the opportunity to hear from leading experts in the scientific community, the Strawberry Commission.
