Field Trial Results

PRULA Root Support

All PRULA products help farmers reduce the environmental stress (high/low temperature, drought, salt damage, etc.) on crops, contributing to better quality crops and increased yields. The effects of PRULA can be seen below through the results from third party field trials conducted internationally.

Field Trial Results

Effect on the Yield of Tomatoes

Tomato Field Trial, Valencia Spain

For both treatment 1(PRULA Root Support 10L/ha) and treatment 2 (PRULA Root Support 20L/ha), the first application of PRULA Root Support was applied using a spray lance at 2mL/L just after germination. The second application involved dipping before planting at 2mL/L. For treatment 1, the third application was applied once every two weeks at 2.5L/ha by drip irrigation. For treatment 2, the third application was applied once every two weeks at 5L/ha per application. Applying a total of 20L/ha of PRULA Root Support increased the yield (kg/plot) by approximately 38.5%, compared to the control, resulting in an overall improvement in fruit weight.

Effect on the Size of Tomatoes

Tomato Field Trial, Valencia, Spain

The tomatoes were classified into four sizes (small, medium, large, and extra large). Following the application of PRULA Root Support, the extra-large tomatoes showed the greatest increase in size compared to the control. An increase in the total amount of larger tomatoes produced will lead to greater commercial value and increased gross returns.

Effect on the Yield and Size of Potatoes

Potato Field Trial, Minas Gerais, Brazil

Using a coastal sprayer, 15L/ha of PRULA Root Support was applied at sowing, and 10 L/ha was applied 26 days after sowing. In this study, all potatoes produced were categorized by size. It was confirmed that PRULA Root Support increased yields in Size 3, which are the largest potatoes with the highest commercial value. These larger potatoes have a greater commercial value leading to higher gross returns.

Effect on the SPAD Increase in Potato Leaf [Chlorophyll Content]

Potato Field Trial, Minas Gerais, Brazil

Increased SPAD values may be one of the factors contributing to increased yields. High leaf chlorophyll values lead to increased photosynthesis, which improves crop yields.
