Application of agricultural biostimulants as a novel sustainable practice to enhance production volumes and qualitative attributes of raspberry fruit
Host Organisation: | MOUNTAIN BERRIES PITSILIA N.V. LTD |
Project Budget: | 35.640,00 € |
IDEK Funding: | 24.948,00 € |
The aim of the current project is to test the efficacy of agricultural biostimulants (ABs) and its potential to be commercially applied in a sustainable production system, such as Integrated Crop Management (IPM) or an Organic Certified Program, for the production of added value raspberry fruits. These compounds, also mentioned as priming agents (PAs) are generally recognized as safe since they do not leave any harmful residues on fruits and are abundant in natural environments.
