As a grower, you understand the challenges plants face in producing quality yields while enduring abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures. These conditions often hinder growth and lead to significant yield setbacks. To combat these issues, it’s essential to equip crops with robust solutions that enhance their resilience and productivity.
Abiotic stresses often occur together in the field, such as drought combined with high temperatures, which can simultaneously threaten plants in multiple ways. Furthermore, rapid vegetative growth and fruit development are often associated with increased vulnerability, as expanding tissues need time to fortify.
Haifa Group Delivers a Solution for The Challenges of Growers Worldwide
To relieve the pressure on plants, it is imperative to equip crops with multistress tolerances, and this is where HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S comes into play. This unique formulation is enriched with highly efficient Silicon, known for its ability to impart mechanical strength to plants. By strengthening cell walls, HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S promotes healthier, more resilient plants that are less vulnerable to stress and damage. Based on advanced Orthosilicic Acid technology, HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S is highly concentrated and ensures effective results.
Strengthening Plants from the Inside Out
HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S enhances mechanical resistance in plant tissues by strengthening cell walls and improving the uniformity of the fruit epidermis. Applied as a foliar spray, it helps prevent micro-damages that can serve as entry points for pathogens. In cereal crops such as wheat and rice, silicon strengthens stalk tissues, helping the plants stand upright and resist lodging—leading to more stable yields and easier harvests.
One of its key advantages is improved water use efficiency. The silicon in HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S fortifies cell membranes, reducing evapotranspiration under drought and heat stress
HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S also increases fruit size, improves overall quality, and extends post-harvest shelf life. The result: higher productivity, better yields, and superior fruit quality.
Field-Proven Results: +10.9% marketable strawberry yield!
During the 2023 growing season, Haifa Group conducted a trial in Poland to assess the effectiveness of HaifaStim™ products in enhancing the yield and quality of strawberry crops.
As strawberries are extremely sensitive, their quality tends to decline rapidly after harvest. However, carefully balanced nutrition that strengthens plant tissues and fortifies plant cells offers a superior alternative that improves yield quality. The use of HaifaStim™ treatment protocols resulted in 8.9% more yield and 10.8% more marketable yield compared to standard farmer practice.
Moreover, the distribution of fruit bearing over the harvest period was more favorable with HaifaStim™ treatment, resulting in a higher percentage of ripe fruit during the early stages of the harvest. HaifaStim™ also improved yield indices such as Brix and vitamin C content compared to the untreated control. Additionally, HaifaStim™ treatment led to better fruit shape after 120 hours post-harvest, suggesting that it enhanced the plant’s utilization of applied nutrients, thereby improving fruit quality and shelf life.
Why Choose HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S?
HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S is the ideal choice for today’s growers. By providing pure, readily available Silicon to plants, HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S ensures that plants can create thicker cell walls, increase mechanical strength, facilitate superior absorption of plant nutrients, and enhance resilience to stresses. These benefits make HaifaStim™ Wall-Up S the obvious and best choice for meeting the challenges posed by abiotic stresses throughout the growing season.
