TriCal Group Today, TriCal Group is proud to spotlight Juan P. Cristofalo, Agronomist with our affiliated company, TriCal New Zealand.
Juan began his journey with Leicester’s in November 2023 before continuing with TriCal NZ. This November, he’ll celebrate three years with the company.
Juan chose agronomy because it combined his interest in working outdoors with his passion for agriculture. Today, he enjoys conducting trials, analyzing results, and helping growers develop effective crop protection strategies.
At TriCal NZ, Juan conducts crop trials, assesses soil microbiomes, supports integrated crop protection programs, and works with customers and colleagues to develop solutions for soil-borne pests and beneficial soil microorganisms following soil fumigation.
One accomplishment he’s especially proud of is being part of a team that continues to overcome challenges and reach new goals. This year, that included beginning work in kiwifruit orchards despite industry and market barriers.
Juan believes agronomists play a vital role in helping growers produce higher-quality yields from limited agricultural land. He sees the combination of modern crop protection and biological solutions as key to feeding a growing global population.
Outside of work, Juan enjoys time with his family, fishing, and his aquarium hobby.
Happy International Agronomist Day, Juan! Thank you for your dedication to growers, customers, and the TriCal Group family. We’re proud to have you on our global team!
Teleos Ag Solutions 
Teleos's Stewardship Manager, Justin Harrison, is back with a new TELONE™ Tip Sheet focused on a simple step that can make a big difference: the 60-second pre-transfer walk-around.
Before moving product, take a minute to verify:
- Receiving tank capacity and headspace
- Level gauges or other measuring equipment
- The complete product path and valve positions
- Hoses, connections, and locking devices
- Emergency equipment and shutoffs
- A trained operator is present to continuously monitor the transfer
Justin also covers why it's important to start slowly and verify flow, use the required PPE for transfers with liquid-contact potential, considerations when using nitrogen pressure, and conditions that should immediately stop a transfer.
At Teleos, stewardship is about building safety into every step—from transportation and storage to product transfer and application. Sometimes, one extra minute upfront can prevent a much bigger problem later.

Trident Ag Products 
Potato research continues to grow at Trident Ag Products. This season, we’re conducting two trials with larger plot sizes covering half-pivot fields, giving us an even broader look at product performance under real-world growing conditions.
By continuing these trials over multiple years, we’re able to work alongside growers, track results from season to season, and build a stronger understanding of what works in the field.
Trident's work continues to show encouraging results in addressing the early die complex in potatoes, including suppression of Verticillium and black dot in stem tissue. The goal is simple: help growers maintain healthier plants and maximize crop potential.
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.

A wide view of soil fumigation in action in Santa Maria.
This strawberry field is undergoing soil fumigation by TriCal, Inc., with the tractor working across the field and broadcast film covering the treated area behind it. The wide perspective highlights the scale of the soil fumigation operation and the work that goes into preparing the field for the next strawberry crop.
TriCal is proud to support growers throughout Santa Maria and the surrounding agricultural community with reliable soil fumigation services.
Whether custom- or grower-applied, TriCal does a field-specific survey and develop the treatment plan in partnership with the grower. We synthesize a broad range of data to optimize the soil treatment tailored to each grower's specific needs. These evaluations include considerations of agronomy, resource conservation, soil biology and soil science, meteorology, and economics.
