1 Platina Bigger pears, year after year
2 Composition Foliar fertilizer (nitrogen N) based on tryptophan, a plant specific amino acid Different from other amino acid fertilizers Single amino acid (no chain) Very small molecule CH 2 CH COOH NH 2 Very fast uptake Only tryptophan (50 g/l) N H
3 Different formulations! Platina 50 : standard 50 g/l Platina 33 : Netherlands 33 g/l Platina 75 : Spain 75 g/l Doses in this document Platina 50! Conversion factors 1,0 l/ha Platina 50 = 1,5 l/ha Platina 33 1,0 l/ha Platina 50 = 0,67 l/ha Platina 75
4 Increasing the fruit size of pears 09/06/2015 4
5 Background fruit size Young fruits are provided with water and nutrients through transport channels (xylem) Fruit growth 3 weeks after full bloom
6 Mode of action Platina Platina increases the elasticity of the cells Due to the rapid growth of the fruits the xylem vessels tear Platina keeps them intact longer Better water uptake Better nutrient uptake More cell division
7 Use of Platina on pear 1 x 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom Weather conditions favorable for growth Day temperature > 15 C, preferably > 18 C High relative humidity Night temperature > 8 C Do not mix with other PGR (but Globaryll)
8 What to expect? Trials in Belgium on Conference Year Experimental station Increase in fruit weight (g) PPS PPS PPS PPS PPS MVG MVG MVG = Ministry of the Flemish community PPS = pcfruit - Proeftuin Pit- en Steenfruit
9 What to expect? Platina = bigger pears without yield reduction 6 grams of difference in fruit weight equals about 1 mm of fruit size => 20 % within one size class up to a higher (= more expensive) size class eg. from up to mm Platina effect often only visible just before harvest
10 Trial results
11 Platina Belgium pcfruit - Proeftuin Pit- en Steenfruit (Experimental Station for Pome and Stone Fruit) Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks before full bloom
12 Platina Belgium Fruit weight (g) Platina Gain in fruit weight from 4 up to 9 grams after treatment with Platina
13 Platina Belgium Fruit size grading (kg/tree) Platina Platina Platina < 50 mm mm mm > 70 mm More yield in the bigger size classes
14 Platina Belgium 2006 Flemish Government - Department of Agriculture and Fisheries Department of Sustainable Agricultural Advise - Fruit Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 2 weeks after full bloom 2 trials
15 Platina Belgium Fruit weight (g) Platina trial trial 2 Gain in fruit weight from 5 up to 7 grams after treatment with Platina
16 Platina Belgium % > 60 mm Platina trial trial 2 More fruit in the bigger size classes
17 Platina Netherlands 2007 DLV Plant Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 4 weeks after full bloom Trials at 3 different growers
18 Platina Netherlands Fruit size grading (%) Platina Platina Platina Grower 1 Grower 2 Grower 3 < 60 mm mm mm > 70 mm Better size grading with Platina in all 3 orchards
19 Platina Netherlands ,4 Fruit density (g/cm³) Platina 1,2 1 0,8 0,6 Grower 1 Grower 2 Grower 3 During the season, Platina gives a higher fruit density Early harvested orchards less size effect, but fruits of the same size will be heavier more yield Later harvested orchards in the last 10 days before harvest, the higher fruit density is turned into extra cell elongation also bigger fruit size
20 Platina Netherlands Mineral composition of the fruit - grower 1 Platina , ,9 3,5 N (% DW * 10) 7,0 8,8 K (% DW * 10) 5,0 Fe (ppm DW) Platina influences the mineral composition of the fruits Xylem vessels kept intact longer more uptake of nutrients Positive influence on fruit quality
21 Platina Italy University of Bologna, Prof. Musacchi Varieties: Conference and Abate Fetel Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom
22 Platina Italy kg/tree g Platina 110 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
23 Platina Italy % Platina % > 60 mm % > 65 mm
24 Platina Italy Mineral composition of the fruit Platina Fe (ppm DW) Higer Fe content in the fruit greener background color
25 Platina Italy kg/tree g Platina 170 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
26 Platina Italy % Platina % > 70 mm % > 75 mm
27 Platina Italy kg/tree g Platina 110 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
28 Platina Italy % Platina % > 60 mm % > 65 mm
29 Platina Italy kg/tree g Platina 156 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
30 Platina Spain IRTA (Mas Badia field station) Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom
31 Platina Spain kg/tree g Platina 125 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
32 Platina Spain % Platina % > 65 mm
33 Platina Spain % Platina % > 60 mm % > 65 mm % > 70 mm
34 Platina Spain Platina 182,6 180,4 188,6 164,5 95,6 99,8 65,4 67,9 Fruit diameter (mm) Fruit length (mm) Fruit volume (ml) Fruit weight (g)
35 Platina Spain IRTA (Lleida field station) Varieties: Conference and Blanquilla Platina 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom
36 Platina Spain kg/tree g Platina 135 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g) Higher yield with Platina, and still a similar fruit weight
37 Platina Spain ,6 g/cm³ Platina 1,4 1,2 1 0,8 0,6 0,4 0,2 0 Fruit density (g/cm³) Again a higher fruit density after treatment with Platina, so heavier fruits
38 Platina Spain kg/tree g Platina 120 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g) Same number of fruits, but higher fruit weight higher yield
39 Platina Spain % Platina % > 60 mm % > 65 mm % > 70 mm
40 Platina Spain uspad Platina Chlorophyll content in the leaves - 7 weeks after full bloom In several trails, the leaves show a significantly higher chlorophyll content in the weeks following Platina treatment
41 Platina Spain kg/tree g Platina 114 Kg/tree Fruit weight (g)
42 Platina Spain % Platina % >60 mm % >65 mm % >70 mm
43 Combination with Globaryll 100
44 Platina + Globaryll 100 Platina can be combined perfectly with a fruit thinning treatment with Globaryll 100 Globaryll 100 on its own gives fruit thinning and a better fruit size Adding Platina gives a stronger thinning effect and/or an extra size effect Advice: - Tankmix mm, + 18 C
45 Platina + Globaryll 100 Belgium 2012 Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, Globaryll 100 2,0 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom Globaryll Globaryll + Platina Number of clusters Number of fruits Fruits/100 clusters
46 Platina + Globaryll 100 Belgium 2012 Variety: Conference Platina 1,5 l/ha, Globaryll 100 2,0 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom Globaryll Globaryll + Platina Fruit weight (g) % > 65 mm
47 Recommendation No thinning Better fruit size Thinning so better fruit size Thinning + extra effect on fruit size Platina 1,5 L/ha ± 3 weeks after full bloom Globaryll L/ha mm + 18 C Globaryll L/ha + Platina 1,5 L/ha mm + 18 C
48 Key points - pear Platina 1 x 1,5 l/ha, ± 3 weeks after full bloom Temperature > 15 C, favorable weather Don t mix with copper Don t mix with other PGR (but Globaryll) Because Platina is taken up very rapidly, it only needs about 3 hours of dry weather after application!
