FRUITLIPS – STIMULANT OF YIELD AND QUALITY OF FRUIT CROPS
Horticulture in Ukraine has significant development prospects, given the growing demand for fruit and berry products on the world market, which makes the industry economically promising. The main consumers of Ukrainian products are Poland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Turkey, the Czech Republic, and Greece.
DOLINA Company has managed to create a formulation, which can solve a number of problems arising during cultivation. The application of FRUITLIPS® helps to improve the color, shape, surface condition, integrity of fruits, balance the content of dry and dry soluble substances, sugars, pectin substances, ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds.
As a result of the FRUITLIPS® application, its significant regenerative and anti-stress effect was revealed, which has a complex effect on both each cell separately and on the plant organism as a whole.
Due to application of FRUITLIPS® growth stimulant:
- there is an increase in the synthesis of phytohormones*, which are responsible for the main biochemical processes in the plant body;
- photosynthetic productivity improves and the chlorophyll content in the leaves increases;
- the biosynthesis of high-molecular compounds (nucleic acids, lipids, polysaccharides, proteins) is activated for their further use as a “building material” and energy production;
- the absorption, fixation and distribution of basic nutrients by leaves, annual shoots and fruits improves;
- the processes of shoot growth and lateral branching improve. In addition, it affects the number of flowers and the average weight of the fruit, which in turn increases the level of productivity and a greater yield of marketable fruits.
*Phytohormones have indispensable functions: they are involved in the regulation of the motor response of the plant’s leaves and flowers, flowering, growth and ripening of fruits, fall of leaves and fruit, increased respiration, the formation of large parthenocarpic fruits, stimulation of bud formation and shoot growth.
IMPACT OF FRUITLIPS® ON YIELD INDICATORS
Fruit commercial quality indicators include appearance (color and shape), which can be affected by a number of negative factors, the effect of which can be reduced by using the FRUITLIPS® formulation. In addition to appearance, the presence or absence of a stalk, size, and maturity affect high commercial quality indicators.
According to research results, the application of FRUITLIPS® contributed to an increase in the yield of healthy fruits by 15.62% compared to the control indicator, which proves the effectiveness of using the formulation to improve commercial quality.
FRUITLIPS® also increases the content of dry soluble substances and sugars, which determines the energy value of fruits, reduces the content of organic acids, each of which plays a certain role in the metabolism in plant cells. It increases the storability of fruits and reduces the manifestation of physiological wilting, bitter pit and fungal rot. All these processes lead to an increase in the level of productivity and quality of fruit and berry products, which are bound to have the highest physical, organoleptic and biochemical indicators.
