Fertilizantes Tepeyac
La Exquisita
Navojoa, Son, Mexico
1998

KEY RESULTS:

  • 17% increase in yield
  • 25% reduction in fertilizer inputs
 
Treatments: Control plot (grower's standard fertilizer and crop protection program); Agri-Gro plot (a 25% reduction in fertilizer and other crop protection inputs compared to control plot)

Application: 5 foliar applications

Conclusions: With a reduced rate of fertilizer the Agri-Gro plot out yielded the control plot resulting in a significant increase in grower revenue. The Agri-Gro treated tomatoes also had a longer shelf life compared to the non-treated.
