Abstract: A system for fumigating soil includes applying a fumigant film component and an underlying drip tape element to the soil to be treated. A non-tarp method can also be used through permanently buried drip tape (SDI) that is at least 8 inches deep and utilizes the soil above as the barrier to prevent the fumigant from escaping. The drip tape element is communicably connected through a throttle valve to a pressurized liquid supply of fumigant having a low boiling point and a high vapor pressure. The valve is opened to dispense vaporized fumigant into the soil and dissipation of the fumigant is controlled so that more effective soil fumigation is achieved.

Abstract: A clasp hanger includes a hanger hook including an elongated part. The hanger hook has a hanger hook section and a neck section opposite the hook section. The neck section is expandable to allow the clasp hanger to be quickly hung on a support object such as a branch. The clasp hanger further includes an object attachment device attached to the neck section of the hanger hook. This object attachment device is configured for attaching an object such as one configured to dispense a chemical or formulation useful in pest management. The hanger hook, and object attachment device are disposed such that, after the support object is pushed through the neck, the hanger hook automatically rotates such that the support object is disposed at an interior part of the hanger hook that is away from the neck section. This prevents the support object from passing back through the neck section.

Abstract: In a method for treating soil at a work site, a first pressure application tool is connected to a base unit and moved relative thereto along a first area of the work site adjacent a structure and operated to inject soil treatment down into the soil along the first area of the work site. A second pressure application tool is interchanged with the first pressure application tool and moved relative to the base unit along a second area of the work site adjacent the structure and different from the first area of the work site. The second pressure application tool is operated to apply soil treatment to the soil along the second area of the work site.

Abstract: An irrigation device for facilitating growth of a plant includes a mat that is air and water permeable and has an opening through which a plant extends. A drip tube is disposed within the mat between upper and lower surfaces thereof. The drip tube has an open end connectable to a water source, and a series of apertures or emitters along the length thereof permitting water to exit the drip tube and through the lower surface of the mat to the ground surrounding the plant.

Abstract: A data processor can estimate a series of center points between the first row and the second row based on targeting substantial symmetry in the first sensor signal response and the second sensor signal response. A nozzle is associated with the sprayer implement. The nozzle has a nozzle position with respect to a corresponding center point between the rows of plants. An offset module is adapted to shift laterally the nozzle position from or with respect to each center point to a corresponding offset lateral position such that a spray pattern of the nozzle is directed toward target strip of soil or ground around or containing a plant stem, or root zone, of the plants in the row.

Abstract: In a system (10) for managing a soil treatment business, an injection apparatus (12) is operable to inject soil treatment under high pressure down into soil. A control system (92) is associated with the injection apparatus (12) and is configured to collect data during operation of the injection apparatus (12). A data management system (801) is configured to receive the data collected by the injection apparatus (12) control system (92). The data management system (801) generally comprises a database for storing the collected data, with the data management system being accessible by the business for reviewing the collected data.
