TOBACCO
Tobacco fumigation with Douglas Ag, helps combat root rot and nematodes by reducing the level of infestation in the field before planting. Especially when combined with using cover crops, fumigation can make sure your field will be usable year after year.
Tobacco Fumigation requires an effort in field preparation beyond simply applying the product. Pathogens can embed in the roots or hard dirt clogs. Special care needs to be taken to plow the fields and remove the roots from pervious crops and break apart the cogs before proper fumigation in order to maximize the effect.
