Orchard Replant Guide
TELONE™ by Teleos orchard applications are underway in California. Growers across the state rely on TELONE™ to help manage nematodes and prunus replant disease.
Prepping the soil with TELONE™ creates a zone of protection so plant roots can establish with more efficient uptake of water and nutrients and less need for other inputs. The result is healthier trees with increased trunk diameters, larger canopies, and improved quality and yields.
