Helping to homogenize the flowering period in cherries with Yara

YaraTera Calcinit is a water-soluble fertilizer, composed of calcium nitrate, ideal for high-value crops such as cherry. This product is especially effective in fertigation and hydroponic cultivation systems, ensuring balanced and efficient nutrition for plants.

Cherry cultivation presents specific challenges, such as uneven and prolonged flowering due to the lack of accumulated chilling hours during the winter. This situation delays and extends the harvest, increasing its costs and delaying the arrival of the products to the market.

To combat these problems, two applications are made:

1. First application with Cyanamide: Helps to advance flowering, starting from July when 70% of the required cold hours have been accumulated.
2. Second application is  YaraTera Calcinit together with Dormancy breakers: This combination evens out and shortens the flowering period. YaraTera Calcinit enhances and increases the effect of Dormancy Breakers, promoting a more uniform flowering and reducing harvest time.

Advantages of YaraTera Calcinit: 

1. High SolubilityWith a solubility of 1200 g/lt at 20°C, YaraTera Calcinit dissolves easily, ensuring an even distribution of nutrients.
2. Safe Nutrient Concentration: The 15.5-0-0 + 26% CaO formula guarantees a safe and effective 100% nutrient concentration for plants.
3. Low Concentration of Heavy Metals: This product presents the lowest concentrations of heavy metals such as Pb, Hg, Cd and As, elements that are harmful to both plants and human consumption.
4. Reduced Carbon Footprint: YaraTera Calcinit has a lower carbon footprint compared to calcium nitrates from other sources, such as those from China, and this feature can be certified.
5. Non-Oxidizing Product: This means that its storage does not present any risk of fire, increasing safety in its handling and storage.

It is worth mentioning that this Yara product is sold in 25 kg bags, packaged at source and is imported, ensuring the highest quality from its production to its application in the field.
