Finishing up soil fumigation is not being as easy as I expected..

I guess I spoke prematurely. The primary soil fumigant, Telone, is in short supply. Looks like we need a lot of it to cover all the open ground. There are very few suppliers of fumigation services. I wonder why we cannot consider alternatives like methyl bromide.

We are talking to Chris B, who has a relationship with TriCal, a primary supplier, and has asked them to be sure that at least the Candycot blocks are fumigated. We will see what happens. Rumor has it that supplies may loosen up soon.
