Bigger olives with AMALGEROL
The trees showed a big response to the treatments
-
+ 60 % more olive yield
-
+ maturity of untreated trees 10 days delayed
-
+ 20 % bigger olives
In this farmer experience, some olive trees in a private garden were treated with AMALGEROL, some were treated with AMALGEROL ESSENCE and others were not treated at all.
The trees showed a big response in general to the AMALGEROL and AMALGEROL ESSENCE treatments, but the difference between the two was rather small.
First of all, the treated trees produced new shoots which is important for the next year’s production.
Furthermore, the treated trees produced 60 % more olives (yield in weight).
The AMALGEROL-olives were much bigger (20%) and earlier ripe: maturity was 10 days before the untreated trees.
