Leafy green vegetables like kale and spinach are high in vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Adding a variety of greens to your diet may help boost brain health and lower your risk of some diseases.
Proactive soil management plays an important role in supporting healthy baby spinach production. Through bed non-tarped soil fumigation targeting Clubroot, TriCal New Zealand helps growers create healthier growing environments that support crop establishment, soil performance, and long-term productivity.
Successful leafy vegetable production begins with healthy growing environments. TriCal New Zealand is proud to support growers with science-based soil solutions that help promote strong crop establishment and long-term productivity from the ground up.
May is National Lettuce Month and at TriCal Group, we’re proud to celebrate one of the most essential and refreshing staples in fresh produce. Behind every head of lettuce is a commitment to quality, sustainability, and the people who make it all possible, from the field to your fork.
Sclerotinia survives for years through hard resting structures (sclerotia), making it difficult to manage during the growing season. Pic+ is used as an effective solution to manage Sclerotinia pressure before planting and supports healthy root development.
Lettuce reaches its best development when the soil provides the right conditions from the start of the cycle. Uniform growth reflects agronomic management designed to achieve quality, efficiency, and consistency in every row.
Good soil management allows for even growth, healthier plants, and consistent production throughout the cycle. In lettuce crops, every stage matters to achieve quality and yield. TriCal SudAmérica S.A. works alongside producers to strengthen crops from the ground up.
Trident's Idaho sugar beet trial is underway with soil fumigation using CPM 65. This application is the first step in our effort to enhance sugar percentage and increase tonnage per acre. While the process is just beginning, establishing healthy soil is essential for supporting strong crop performance throughout the season.
When the soil is properly treated, each lettuce variety can express its full potential: better structure, even growth, and higher yield per row. This type of results reflects the importance of a well-planned soil treatment adapted to the needs of each producer.
This BB Spinach field illustrates the significant benefits of soil fumigation using Tri-Form 60. The right side of the field was planted earlier, while the left side was planted a few weeks later. However, due to the superior soil health achieved through TriCal NZ's soil fumigation treatment, the later planting on the left is rapidly catching up in growth and vigor.
Take a look at this BB Spinach crop as it progresses through its growth stage! This block was previously fumigated with Tri-Form 60, ensuring the soil is free from harmful pathogens and pests. A well-prepared foundation leads to stronger, healthier plants and a more bountiful harvest.
