In an experiment carried out in a vineyard in Albacete, Brotostim was able to increase the weight of the harvest in a vineyard with hail damage up to 124%.

A recent study developed by ADLER AGRO in a vineyard in Villarrobledo (Albacete) has revealed that Brotostim was able to more than double the final grapevine harvest, even after suffering severe damage by hail.

Within the vineyard chosen to carry out the study, plants that presented necrosis problems, as well as other vascular problems, were selected and divided into three different treatments:

1. Control treatment with traditional fertilization of the crop

2. Brotostim treatment plus traditional fertilization of the crop

3. Treatment with a Reference product of the market plus the traditional fertilization of the crop

In treatment 2 and 3, three different applications were made following these terms:

– First application when sprouts reach 15-20 cm: 200 cc/HL

– Second application from the beginning of flowering to pea size: 300 cc/HL

– Third application since fruit set to the beginning of fruit colour changing: 300 cc/HL

The trial took place between April and October of 2018, during this time different measurements of the sprouts of each of the selected plants were made and the final harvests of each of the treatments were also weighed.

With these data the following results were obtained:

As shown in the graph above, the plants that were treated with Brotostim achieved a 124% more weight regarding the control plants and up to 4.4% more weight than those treated with the reference product in the market.

These results reveal the potential of the ADLER AGRO product to promote sprouting and increase crop harvest.

In any case, in order to correctly analyse these data, we must bear in mind that there was a determining factor that greatly influenced the results of this study, hail.

The hail damage occurred just between the first two applications with Brotostim and the reference product. In this way, although the damage affected all the evaluated plants equally, it made the applications of these two products tested much more effective. Since they helped the plant not only to be more vigorous and produce more, but to recover quickly from the effects of hail.

This shows that Brotostim is not only an interesting product for adding it to the nutrition plan of your crops as stimulator of sprouting and vigor in the plant, but it is an ideal product to help the plant recover from various types of stress. abiotic like biotic.

What effects does BROTOSTIM have?

BROTOSTIM is a product based on Copper, Manganese and Zinc complexed with organic agents. The product can be easily translocated by the plant, both upstream and downstream, thanks to its content in organic compounds.

BROTOSTIM improves the general health of the plant, especially in vascular diseases, as it stimulates the regeneration of new crop cells.

BROTOSTIM is perfect for the first stages of crop development as it stimulates cell division, the activation of axillary buds and the development of chloroplasts.

How does BROTOSTIM improve the general state of the plant?

The organic complexing agents present in the product induce a quick absorption of the elements by the plant. It is then transported to the young parts of the plant, where it increases the growth of the crop in its first stages.

Copper is an important micronutrient during sprouting in deciduous crops and helps protecting it against fungal diseases, as it assists in the formation of cell wall.

Manganese promotes the formation of lateral roots and catalyses in the formation of chlorophyll.

Finally, Zinc has an important role in the production of growth hormones and in the elongation of internodes.

The combination of these three ADLER products has been very beneficial for tomato growers in Greece.

Our customers in Greece are very satisfied with the results of the combination of FLOWER, AMINO NATURE and BRIX in their greenhouse tomato crops.

The following photographs attest the great effects of these three ADLER AGRO products.

As they have told us, thanks to FLOWER they have observed a significant increase in the number of tomatoes.

Likewise, thanks to the application of AMINO NATURE, they told us that the quality and the size obtained, as well as the general health of the plant, increased remarkably, which allowed a reduction in the necessary phytosanitary treatments.

Finally, the homogeneity and coloring of the fruits was much greater thanks to the use of BRIX.

We wish you many more successes in your crops and we thank both our exclusive distributor for Greece and their customers, for the interest shown in our products and their unconditional support.

Climate change is directing current agriculture towards the need for anti-stress products that help maintain the yields.

Climate change is a problem of great importance for society in general and for agriculture and animal husbandry in particular. Due to the instability situation that it generates, crops are increasingly subjected to all kinds of stresses.

Also, the effects of climate change are increasing, and numerous studies point to devastating impacts in agriculture with only one planet 3ºC hotter as shown in the following image

In the previous image you can see how the most productive areas of the planet will greatly reduce their harvests, while other areas will become more productive and there will even be new arable land due to global warming.

This fact confirms the pressure exerted by stress on the crops of the future. In this context the use of new agricultural solutions capable of combating stress and its catastrophic effects is indispensable.

A plant, when feeling some type of stress, maximizes its energy saving, decreases the loss of water and uses its supplies to maintain its vital functions instead of continuing to develop normally.

This is due to the fact that the plants, when subjected to an adverse situation, activate a series of protective measures such as the closure of their stomata, the reduction of photosynthetic activity and the acceleration of foliar senescence.

In this way, a stressed crop is a high-risk factor for agricultural crops and, therefore, for the profitability of the farmer.

In this sense, ADLER AGRO offers to the farmer a wide variety of biostimulant products with a high efficiency combating this kind of problems. Preparing the plant to withstand any kind of unexpected stress and helping it to recover after any adversity that could put the harvest at risk.

Specifically, ADLER AGRO products from our Amino Acid Family are formulated specifically to solve these imbalances caused by plant stress.
Plants, during stressful situations, need a high availability of amino acids to produce their own defence proteins against a particular factor.

Thanks to amino acids, it is possible to reopen or keep open stomata, increase photosynthesis and delay leaf senescence.

For all this, the absorption of amino acids by the plant helps to overcome adverse situations, since they strengthen the functions that the plant is developing at each moment.

In this sense, the use of amino acids in agriculture is a tool that can be very useful both to improve the production and quality of the harvest and to overcome moments of stress. Although it is necessary to have a knowledge of this type of products to buy the one that best suits the needs of your crop.

For this reason, at ADLER AGRO we are at your disposal for any technical questions you may have about our products. In order to recommend the best option for your needs and offer you the best technical service.
