Our Pic-Plus stone fruit trial results are featured in the September issue of NZ Grower & Orchardist
TriCal New Zealand is pleased to share the results of a Pic-Plus fumigation trial conducted in a replanted stone fruit orchard in Hawke’s Bay.
The trial assessed early tree growth and changes in the soil microbiome following soil fumigation. After the first year, trees planted in Pic-Plus soil-fumigated rows showed up to 194% greater growth in trunk circumference compared with trees planted in untreated rows.
The soil microbiome assessment also found increases of more than 80% in representative beneficial bacteria and 180% in representative beneficial fungi following soil fumigation.
The full trial results, including the crop and soil microbiome assessments, are featured in the September 2026 issue of NZ Grower & Orchardist.
