Onion Research | Irrigon, Oregon

From field trials to better crop outcomes, innovation starts with putting new approaches to the test. This photo highlights an in-row soil fumigation trial on onions in Irrigon, Oregon, where we are evaluating application performance and refining techniques to promote healthy stands and consistent crop growth.

Powered by Chloropicrin, Strike™ is applied directly within the row to target soilborne pests and diseases where they can affect the developing root system. In-row application also helps make every treatment count by focusing protection where it is needed most.


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.
