Prunus crops, including almonds, are highly vulnerable to soil-borne challenges that can impact tree health and long-term productivity. From Prunus Replant Disorder (PRD) to nematodes, Phytophthora, and root rot, these issues develop below the surface and can limit root growth and overall tree performance.

Orchard growers know that TELONE™ by Teleos tackles two big challenges at once: nematode pressure and Prunus replant disease. It's important to to target nematodes before they have a chance to be a problem. TELONE™ targets nematodes where they live—so young trees can establish without early-season setbacks.
This broadacre, tarped fumigation project is being carried out using Pic-Plus, a proven soil fumigant. These blocks are being prepared for apple planting to manage the soil-borne pests responsible for apple replant disease and manage a healthier soil environment.
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.
This New Zealand site has been treated with Pic-Plus to effectively target soil-borne pathogens associated with apple replant disease. Soil fumigation is essential for ensuring optimal growth conditions for the best possible start.
This week, our team has been diligently conducting both broadcast and tarped soil fumigations utilizing Pic-Plus. These treatments are being implemented in preparation for upcoming apple planting, specifically aimed at managing soil-borne pests linked to apple replant disease.
Implementing Pic-Plus plasticulture soil fumigation is a proven strategy to combat the pathogens linked to apple replant disease. By taking proactive measures to treat the soil before planting, orchardists can create ideal conditions for young trees, promoting sustainable orchard health.
TriCal NZ, is dedicated to helping New Zealand growers tackle soil challenges and maximize crop success. Apple Replant Disease is a soil-borne condition that can hinder the growth and productivity of young trees. Trical takes pride in offering soil fumigation solutions across New Zealand
Trical New Zealand has strategically targeted soilborne pests that contribute to replant diseases in blueberries. Soil fumigation enables Trical NZ to assist growers throughout New Zealand in safeguarding their investments and optimizing production efficiency.
Soil Fumigation plays a crucial role in managing challenges like Apple Replant Disease. For this orchard, the process involved removing the existing plants, performing the soil fumigation, and allowing the soil to settle before replanting the apple trees.
Trical New Zealand is showing off this apple orchard which is growing strong and thriving thanks to a soil fumigation treatment completed by TriCal New Zealand using our Pic-Plus product and a careful and precise approach to create the environment for apple trees to flourish.
