This ensures that more seeds are retained, resulting in higher yields and reduced losses during harvest. BLOCSAL®: For farms dealing with saline soils, BLOCSAL prevents sodium accumulation and promotes potassium uptake. ...
ADAS is excited to be part of a new collaboration with SugaROx, Fera, and the British Tomato Growers Association, to investigate the extent to which a novel SugaROx biostimulant can enhance tomato resilience to climate change and reduce the carbon footprint of UK tomato production. ...
” Possible Applications of Carboxyl-Functionalized Pheromones Attracting pollination Synthetic trail parapheromone can attract collecting bees and improve the pollination efficiency for pears, cherries, and apples, increasing both yield and fruit size. Enhancing the community Trail parapheromone can attract worker bees to eat more, hence maintaining or ...
It’s not just oranges that grow in Florida. Carambola, or star fruit as most in the United States call it, is gaining popularity. One researcher from Florida International University is researching how cover crops can help the sustainability of star fruit ...
Rooting and strong seedlings, coloring the fruit, increasing yield and improving quality. This product can quickly activate the growth mechanism of crop roots, promote the growth of new roots and capillary roots, and the roots are thick, roots and roots. ...
In order to increase the yields of the crop, traditionally around the world special attention is paid to nutrition regulation issues. ...

Joining a high-yield pepper plant sapling to the roots of a strong and resistant variety could help pepper farmers cope with lower rainfall, a study has found. An experiment using the technique of merging two plants, known as grafting, resulted in higher fruit yield during periods of less rain. Plants also grew much better in salty soil, a ...
As the reproductive development (i.e. flower and fruit development) of a plant is a critical part of its life cycle, anything which adversely affects this can impair the yield and quality of the crop. ...
Utilizing best practices for irrigation and vegetation management in the orchard helps growers to optimize tree growth, fruit yield, and fruit size. Scientists at North Carolina State University published a study in the May 2015 issue of HortScience that includes guidelines that can help increase tree vigor and fruit ...
"There are several challenges to sandwich systems, such as choosing living mulch mixtures that have minimal competition, avoiding rodent problems, and adjusting vegetation growth without any negative effects on apple yield, fruit quality, and storability." For their research the scientists compared standard mechanical cultivation with four different orchard ...
Fruit and vegetable production in high-elevation areas can be a difficult enterprise. ...
The authors of a new study say that there has been limited information available about the influence of fertilizer sources of nitrogen that can be injected and fertigated on fruit yield and quality in organic blackberry. Their study revealed two organic fertilizers that the scientists say are "good options" for these crops. ...
Miles and King performed a 2-year study of 'Brown Snout' bittersweet specialty cider apple (grafted onto M.27 and East Malling/Long Ashton 9 rootstocks) to compare the total weight of harvested fruit, labor hours for harvest, tree and fruit damage, and fruit and juice quality for traditional hand harvest and mechanical harvest using an ...
The fruit are then harvested, hulled, and dried in-shell before cracking for commercial markets. ...
Yasuor and colleagues designed a study to investigate ways to reduce environmental pollution by increasing nitrogen use efficiency in vegetables without negatively affecting fruit yield or quality. The scientists used bell pepper (Capsicum annum L.) in a case study for intensive vegetable cropping. ...
Thanks to a grant received from the Water Metropolitan District of Southern California in 2014, Fruition selected six wineries in California to host an experiment: one side of the vineyard was farmed as usual by the team, one side was handled by Fruition using real-time plant sensors and the associated analytics. To make the test convincing and reproducible, a very thorough process was ...
