A recent industry survey highlights a growing challenge across U.S. agriculture: rising input costs are forcing difficult decisions in the field.
According to the American Farm Bureau Federation, nearly 70% of farmers report they cannot afford all the fertilizer they need for the 2026 season. In some regions, that number climbs even higher, with many growers planning to reduce application rates or shift acreage—decisions that can directly impact yield and overall production.
As input costs rise and margins tighten, efficiency becomes more important than ever.
That’s where what happens belowground matters. By prepping the soil ahead of planting with TELONE™ by Teleos soil fumigant, growers can establish stronger, healthier root systems. Efficient roots improve water and nutrient uptake, helping reduce inputs needed like fertilizer, water, and contact nematicides.
In today’s environment, solutions that improve efficiency aren’t just helpful—they’re essential.

Your water may look clean, but it often carries hidden threats such as sand, silt, algae, and other organic debris. Over time, these contaminants can clog emitters, reduce water flow, and lead to uneven irrigation, ultimately stressing your crops and lowering yields.
Even small particles can cause big problems:
With the right filtration solution tailored to your water source and operation, you can keep your system running smoothly and your crops thriving. Clean water is not just better; it is essential for consistent, high-quality production.
