BALANCES FRUIT DEVELOPMENT AND SIZE

During the stages of fruit development and ripening, plants require greater energies to distribute nutrients evenly. Besides the factors promoting the development of fruit tissues and, therefore, an increase in fruit volume, it is alsonecessary to increase nutrient supply in order to support fruit enlargement as long as fruits take form. As forvegetable crops (in the greenhouse and open field) in particular, difficult environmental conditions or nutritional imbalances can hamper fruit enlargement.

ILSASHAPE is designed to foster an increase in the size of tomatoes, peppers, strawberries, melons and all fruitcrops, also the tree ones, thanks to its developing tissues and constantly supporting enlargement in nutritional terms, starting from early fruit set.

Its composition, based on oligosaccharides, plant extracts, peptides and amino acids (from enzymatic hydrolysis) suited for the enlargement and ripening stages of fruits (glutamic acid, aspartic acid and proline), allows ILSASHAPE, once applied, to help increase size. The presence of betaines, moreover, fosters the usual metabolicactivities at the cell level and regulates transpiration, so limiting the risk of a stress. By making fruits more developed and uniform and reducing production waste,

ILSASHAPE increases the final value of fruits and vegetables picked.
