Fumigants are injected as liquids into the soil to control harmful insects, nematodes, weeds, bacteria, fungi, and diseases that have invaded a field.
2
VOLATILZES INTO GAS
The fumigant volatizes into gas diffusing through the soil air space, radiating out from the points of injection.
3
REDUCES HARMFUL PATHOGENS
The treatment significantly reduces the harmful pathogens and rebalances the native beneficial soil microbe population, conditioning it for planting.
4
FUMIGANT DECOMPOSES
The fumigant decomposes rapidly in the soil; and some fumigants, like Chloropicrin, actually biodegrade into plant nutrients.
5
CROP PLANTING
Crop planting takes place in the newly conditioned soil.
6
THE RESULT IS HEALTHY PLANTS
Healthy plants are able to maximize their water and nutrient use and grow to full yield potential with no uptake of fumigant into the plant root or residue on the plant.
