Potato growers today face a familiar—but evolving—set of challenges: soil-borne diseases, market pressure for higher quality, and the constant need to protect yield while managing risk. At Strike Fumigants, we believe better outcomes start with better information.
That’s why we’re excited to highlight two new, expert-led webinars designed to help growers dig deeper into the issues impacting potato quality—and walk away with practical strategies they can use in the field.
Whether you’re battling common scab or looking for ways to elevate overall crop quality, these sessions are built to inform, equip, and empower.
