Tests for the control of ferric chlorosis in citrus fruits
Tests are underway on various rootstocks
(including S. Citrumelo and Carrizo Citrange, the progress of which we will shortly publish)
Volkameriana (tolerant)
Soil: sand – Days from transplanting: 40
In the photos alongside it is possible to appreciate the difference in development on Volkamerian rootstocks respectively of the root system and of the entire plant between the witness, the thesis with Nano.T Fe and with a chelated product based on Iron: the effectiveness of the product nanotechnology is evident.
Citrange C-35 (sensitive)
Soil: sand – Days from transplanting: 40
Also on this rootstock the effectiveness of Nano.T Fe is evident both on the development of the root system and on that of the entire plant.
Citrange C-35 (sensitive)
Soil: sand – Days from transplanting: 60
On sandy soil, and therefore with low iron content, the symptoms of chlorosis are not yet evident after 60 days
Citrange C-35 (sensitive)
Soil: sand – Days after transplanting: 60
Chlorotic power index: high
Iron chlorosis was induced on sandy soil by adding a large dose of carbonates to each fertigation: the use of Nano.T visibly reduces the symptoms of chlorosis compared to the traditional chelated product .
