Common scab continues to be one of the most challenging soil-borne diseases in potato production, making marketable yield a top priority for growers. If you missed this blog or would like a refresher, it's worth taking another look.

Learn how Strike™, powered by Chloropicrin, is used to help manage common scab and other soil-borne diseases while supporting production efficiency.

Strike formulations are Chloropicrin-based products and some of the most effective soil fumigants to manage soil borne pests and pathogens in potatoes and other crops. Pre-plant soil fumigation treatment is the first step in a successful soil health and pest management system. Strike can be applied alone or in combination with other fumigants via shank injections. The Strike product line helps you grow a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable crop year after year.
