From yellow leaves to orange fruits: AMALGEROL allows fast frost recovery

This is a farmer experience with an orange plantation in Valencia region, Spain.

In the beginning of 2013, temperature dropped below the limit for citrus crops for several days (up to minus 6°C). The trees got damaged and seemed to be nearly dead.

In February, the farmer gave 6 l/ha AMALGEROL into the irrigation system and let it run for 2 hours. 15 days later (when the trees began to sprout) he repeated the treatment.

Impressively, the trees resprouted vigorously and 6 months later already looked normal again. The harvest had a high quality with a good fruit size and a high number of fruits.  

+ good recovery 6 months after frost damage

+ high quality harvest
