Healthy crops start with healthy soil.

Soil fumigation is a pre-plant treatment that helps manage harmful soil-borne pests, diseases, and nematodes. By creating a healthy, growing environment beneath the surface, growers can give their crops the best possible start.

Why does it matter?

• Improves crop yield and quality
• Safeguard plant health from day one
• Supports efficient land use
• Helps growers maximize their investment

At TriCal, we’re committed to delivering innovative soil solutions that support sustainable, productive agriculture. Because stronger starts lead to stronger harvests.

Trical Inc. had 28 employees participate, including 2 who generously donated double red units, for a total of 32 productive units collected. These lifesaving donations have the potential to impact up to 88 lives.

We’re especially proud that every participant was a first-time donor — a record for the Stanford Blood Center! This incredible turnout reflects TriCal’s commitment to giving back and supporting our community in meaningful ways.

A big thank you to the Stanford Blood Center team for their knowledge, professionalism, and warm support throughout the event. We're grateful for the opportunity to help save lives and look forward to partnering again for our next blood drive!

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

It’s National Sweetpotato Month, a time to recognize one of California agriculture’s important specialty crops. At TriCal Inc., we work alongside sweetpotato growers to support healthy soil and strong crop establishment through professional soil fumigation services.

Healthy soil plays a key role in supporting root development and overall crop performance, helping sweetpotato fields get off to a strong start each season.

A sweetpotato field in Atwater, CA, is being soil fumigated with TELONE™ II to help manage root-knot nematodes and support healthy root development. This treatment provides growers with a stronger start to the season by creating optimal growing conditions for a productive crop.

Healthy soil is the foundation of a productive field, and we are committed to helping growers achieve reliable results year after year

California’s specialty crops face major pressure from plant parasitic nematodes (PPN) attacking roots underground.

Top offenders include root-knot, lesion, ring, cyst, and dagger nematodes, all capable of stunting plant growth and reducing yields.

Plant parasitic nematodes cost California growers millions each year by damaging the roots of:

• Almonds
• Grapes
• Citrus
• lVegetables
• Strawberries

TriCal was founded in 1961 by three young men - Richard Storkan, Jerry Hanes, and Robert McCaslin, who were on a mission to carry out commercial soil fumigation by specialized methods.

Before you plant your next orchard, schedule your almond soil treatment with TriCal, Inc. Soil health is the key to a strong start and long-term productivity. Our proven treatments help protect against pests and soil-borne diseases, creating the ideal environment for healthy roots, resilient trees, and higher yields.

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