Improve yields by using Dormancy breaking and foliar feeding

Although it is very cold outside, Spring is around the corner and it is now the time to prepare for dormancy-breaking treatment in deciduous crops. In areas where the amount of chilling hours may be marginal, spraying dormancy breaking agents (oils) is a common practice to improve yields. It was found that foliar application of Haifa Bonus prior to the oil spray allows reduction of oil application rates. The advantages of this foliar application are:

• Reduce costs.
• Minimizing the risk of phytotoxicity.
• More uniform dormancy breaking.
• Produces earlier.
• More bountiful first harvest wave.

After the beginning of flowering, the use of special foliar Poly-Feed formulas for each stage can stimulate growth and increase fruit size. These are the Poly-Feed foliar formulas:
