We're nuts for National Pecan Day! Whether you call them pick-AHNs or pee-CANs, we can all agree that the best way to grow healthy pecan trees is to prep the soil with TELONE™ by Teleos soil fumigant before planting! Spring applications are currently ongoing in the southeast, and growers know that a good offense with TELONE™ is the best defense against nematodes.

Pecan trees are susceptible to root-knot nematodes and soil-borne diseases, which can wreak havoc on developing roots. Using a blend of TELONE™ (to target nematodes) and chloropicrin (to combat soil-borne diseases) is an effective one-two punch for all of your pecan pre-plant needs.

Treating with a TELONE™/chloropicrin blend ahead of planting creates a zone of protection that supports healthy root establishment and growth into healthy trees. Trials show that treating orchards ahead of replant helps improve tree diameter and canopy size, supporting increased yields and improved quality.

Remember, there's no coming back from a poor start (especially when you're investing in an orchard that will be around for decades)! Strong orchards start belowground.
