Scientific Communications | Crop-Scan®

Crop-Scan® is a diagnosis service of crop stress, based on aerial images obtained by remote sensing with thermal and multispectral cameras in manned aircraft. This technology allows integrating on a map, with an optimized spatial and temporal resolution, different physiological parameters that provide representative data of the condition and development of the crop in each part of the assessed plot. Crop-Scan® is implemented to work on woody crops, as fruit trees, citrus, vineyard and oliv...

Scientific Communications | Suzukii Trap®

Suzukii Trap ®, developed by the R & D Department of Bioiberica, is a food attractant specifically designed to capture Drosophila suzukii, with a great power of attraction and easy handling. The data collected show that Suzukii Trap® can be used as an agile monitoring system, stable and with permanent effectiveness throughout the season. Unlike other organic liquids used, Suzukii Trap ® is a transparent and stable formulation, which does not generate precipitates or mucilages which ma...

X International Mango Symposium

July 2013
Scientific Communications | AminoQuelant®

Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of a biostimulant formulation containing 5% free amino acids with 1% N and 30% K2O (AminoQuelant®- K) on fruit set and size of mango ‘Banilejo’. Fruit number and weight increased as spray concentrations increased from 0 to 4 ml per liter. The concentration of soluble solids in the fruit juice also increased as spray concentrations of the biostimulant were increased. These results indicate thatunder the conditions of this research, this...

1st World Congress on the use of Biostimulants in Agriculture

December 2012
Scientific Communications | Terra-Sorb®
Several environmental factors adversely affect plant growth, its development and the final crop yield, being temperature stress (cold, freeze or heat stress) one of the most limiting variables. With the aim to assess the effect of exogenous amino acids treatments, several experiments with plants subjected to different stressing temperatures were conducted applying an amino acid product obtained by Enzymatic Hydrolysis (Terra-Sorb). Findings suggest that Terra-Sorb has a similar effect than nat...

8th International Conference on Integrated Fruit Protection

October 2012
Scientific Communications | Cera-Trap®
The Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly), Ceratitis capitata, is a key pest of many fruit crops throughout the world. The eradication programs of this pest have typically entailed the use of chemical insecticide sprays. Nowadays, these practices are controversial because of their adverse effects on humans, non-target organism and the environment. For these reasons, more environmentally friendly solutions for medfly control are searched. CeraTrap is an attractant completely free of pesticides in its...
