Almond Tree
BROTOMAX®
APPLICATION TIMES, MODES AND DOSE
- 1st foliar application: on swollen buds (phenological state B) up to state D. Dose: 0,3% (3 L/ 1000 L).
- 2nd foliar application: from the beginning of flowering (E) to full flowering (F). Dose: 0,3% (3 L/ 1000 L).
- 3rd foliar application: in freshly fruit setting (H), approximately 20-25 days after the 2nd application. Dose: : 0,3% (3 L/ 1000 L).
Can also be applied through the soil at the same times.
Dose: 5 L/Ha.
POST-HARVEST TREATMENT
We recommend a foliar application after harvesting. With this application, particularly important to overcome vascular diseases, we achieve a rapid healing of the microherides produced during the harvest. Besides regulating flowering in the next vegetative cycle, resulting in increased formation of May clusters and mixed branches.
Dose: 0,25%.
BENEFITS AND ADVANTAGES
- The first application enhances sprouting, increment in the number of bud sprouts, leading to homogeneous flowering.
- The second application boosts better fruit setting. Helps the lining of the tree.
- Calibre homogeneity.
- Increases yield of the harvest and content of essential fatty acids, antioxidants and enhances fruit flavors.
- Stimulates polyphenols production, making the tree more resistant to Phytophthora attacks and other vascular wood disorders.
- A recovery of healthy vegetation, making the tree younger as more buds sprout at the base of the main branches.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The 2nd application should be done in conjunction with BIOHIDRAMAR® CREMA to encourage and give homogeneity to flowering and setting.
Dose: 0,25% (2,5 L/ 1000 L).
Perform the 3rd application together with AM·EN® to induce cell division and reduce physiological fall after fruit setting, resulting in a greater number of homogeneous fruits to maintain quality despite production increase. In the case of a high physiological drop or production it is advisable to make a second application at 14-21 days.
Dose: : 0,3% (3 L/ 1000 L).
A foliar application of LANZADERA®3 is important at this stage to effectively prevent or correct deficiencies of Zinc, Manganese and Magnesium.
Dose: 0,2-0,3% (2-3 L / 1000 L).
QUASSAR® is recommended to improve the effectiveness of treatments and replace mineral oils, due to its high-power surfactant and adherence.
Dose: 0,15% (1,5 L/ 1000 L).
NEW PLANTATIONS
Goals:
- Better rooting
- Stronger plants.
- Reduction in production time
In new plantations two soil applications of CORRIZ•AM®, is recommended, the first at transplantation and the other 7-10 days later.
BENEFITS:
- Boosts proliferation of absorbent hairs and a larger root mass.
- Generates vegetative improvement and a larger trunk diameter.
- Promotes multiplication and lengthening of the roots.
- Stimulates mycorrhization.
Dose: 5 L/Ha (±10 cc/foot).
Two consecutive soil applications of BROTOMAX® at intervals of 7 and 10 days should be applied after the treatments mentioned before.
BENEFITS:
- Boosts sprouting, producing a greater number of vigorous buds.
- Better seedling lining.
- Higher plants.
- Strengthens the stem without softening it (plant more resistant to cold)
Dose: 5 L/Ha ( ±10 cc/foot).
At the end of the aforementioned Establishment Programme, a monthly soil application of BROTOMAX® during the plant’s vegetative activity period is highly recommended.
Once the plant has reached a stage where it is well leafed, the treatment can be foliar.
Dose:
5 L/Ha (irrigation application).
0,3% (3 L/1000 L) (foliar application).
This treatment is perfectly compatible with amino acids, nutritional supplements, phytosanitary treatments, etc.
