Stronger plants, better yields, fewer resources - and a lower carbon footprint. Potato growers face big sustainability goals, but with the right tools, we can get there—without sacrificing productivity.

One tool that’s helping make this possible is Strike. Driven by the active ingredient chloropicrin, Strike is a soil fumigant — but not the kind you might have used before. Strike works selectively, targeting harmful pathogens like common scab and black dot while actively supporting beneficial soil microorganisms.

The result? Healthier plants, better yields and fewer resources used overall.

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.

Disease decreases crop quality. Strike improves crop health and marketable yield. This allows the grower to capture more sales and profits or the flexibility to farm less acres for the same profit.
