In a recent cherry orchard planting, a central section of post-row ground was left unfumigated due to equipment access limitations. The difference in plant performance was clear — trees established in soil treated with Strike 80 showed stronger growth and improved vigor compared to those planted in untreated soil. Although the variety was considered disease resistant, this experience reinforced the importance of proactive soil preparation. The grower has since committed to fumigating all future plantings.

This is what a crop looks like when the work underground is done well. Uniform growth, healthy plants and a field prepared to perform from day one. Because good lettuce does not appear by chance, it is built from the ground.

TriCal Group Companies are committed to the safe and responsible use of soil fumigation. We strive to protect you, your community and the environment. Our Companies rely on decades of experience, thousands of in-field application trials, and hundreds of university research studies to find the perfect formulation that is healthy for your crops, profitable for your farm, and safe for your community.

From above, you can really see the precision that goes into preparing an orchard for success.

This aerial view captures soil fumigation in action, a critical step in orchard development. By treating the soil before planting, growers create a healthy foundation that helps young trees establish strong roots and thrive for years to come.

Trident Ag Products is proud to support growers with solutions that protect their investment from the ground up. Healthy soil sets the stage for productive orchards and long-term success.

Blackcurrant harvest reflects the impact of sound agronomic decisions made early in the season.

Effective soil preparation and targeted soilborne pest management support strong root development, uniform canopy growth, and consistent fruit set, key factors in achieving yield and quality at harvest.

Supporting growers with science-based solutions from soil preparation through harvest.

TriEst Ag Group is proud to partner with Tri-Hishtil to bring growers high quality grafted watermelon plants, all grown in Mills River, North Carolina. These grafted offerings are designed to support plant vigor, uniformity, and performance in the field.

Tri-Hishtil brings together three pioneers in the agricultural industry from around the world; TriEst Ag Group, Inc. in the USA; Israel-based Hishtil, and Italian-owned and operated SIS/Centro SEIA.

Soil fumigation is underway in this hop field as part of the preparation for a successful growing season. Beginning with healthy soil helps manage soil conditions that can limit plant performance and supports strong establishment as the crop moves into the season. Trident's team works closely with growers to plan applications carefully and carry them out with precision and responsible practices in the field.

At Trident Ag Products combines field experience, research-driven approaches, and a strong focus on stewardship to support long term crop performance and sustainable farming operations.

Before the first tomato plants appear, the work has already begun underground.

Preparation and spraying of soil in pre-plantation is a strategic decision: reduce risks from the start, protect the root system and give the crop an even and strong start. Every prepared groove is a bet for healthier plants, more stable cycles, and a production that lasts over time. Because in tomato, as in all farming well done, success is built from the ground up.

Today, we recognize International Day of Women and Girls in Science by celebrating the incredible women of TriCal Diagnostics. In the lab and beyond, their expertise, precision, and dedication drive the science behind the solutions we deliver to agriculture every day.

We are proud to highlight the talented women whose work supports growers, advances innovation, and upholds the highest standards of quality and stewardship.
