Stone fruits

A balanced nutrition in order to obtain the best fruit content and sustainable growth

Fruits et la vigne:

Basic Information

Peach, apricot, cherry, nectarine, plums and others are deciduous trees and members of the “stone fruits” family. They grow better in areas with cold winters but warm and dry summers, preferring deep, well drained soils, which are rich in organic matter with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. A balanced fertilization program should take into account all the nutrients the plants require and aim to optimize inputs, to increase the yield and improve quality; while at the same time protecting the environment, the soil fertility as well as the crop’s sustainability.

Instructions importantes pour l'utilisation : Si plusieurs produits sont mélangés lors de l'utilisation de notre produit, des effets réciproques imprévus peuvent se produire. Il n'est pas possible de prévoir toutes les conditions qui peuvent se produire dans la pratique (par exemple, la température, le type d'eau, les produits phytosanitaires). Il est donc fortement recommandé de tester d'abord la compatibilité et l'application des produits prévus à petite échelle. Nous déclinons toute responsabilité pour les dommages qui pourraient résulter d'interactions basées sur des mélanges - notamment - avec d'autres produits, des produits phytosanitaires, des produits de protection des plantes ou des engrais et/ou de conditions inhabituelles (température, type d'eau, etc.).

Detailed Description

The fertilization program should aim to apply the required nutrient quantities according to the needs of the crop at the different phenological stages. Nitrogen is needed in large quantities and should be available at all stages during the plant’s life cycle, but mainly during the vegetative growth. Potassium is also needed in high quantities, since it is a key element for the sugar production and for the tree’s water management during the summer.
Calcium is an essential nutrient for the stability of the fruit’s cell walls and must be available to the trees in large quantities, even at the very early stage of fruit setting. Iron, zinc, boron are very important microelements for the stone fruits, because they enhance photosynthesis and ensure good flowering, good pollination and fruit setting. The technique of "post-harvest fertilization", with forms of slow-release nitrogen is highly recommended as it promotes the fast and good growth of the next season.
Granular fertilization with Basacote^® Starter or NovaTec^® Premium. For fertigation we recommend our water soluble fertilizers NovaTec^® Solub and Hakaphos^®. Products from the liquid fertilizer line Basfoliar^® are useful for foliar application. As biostimulant we recommend Basfoliar^® Avant Natur SL, Basfoliar^® Amino Cu and Vitanica^® Si.
