Lainco presents first biostimulant Laiguant Prime, most natural solution for sustainable citrus farming

The Lainco company presented the first biostimulant that naturally reduces the physiological fall of citrus fruits, a new tool for citrus growers seeking to add value and achieve differentiated commercialization.

The Finca Sinyent hosted Citrus Day: Advancing towards sustainable production, organized by Lainco, where it presented Laiguant Prime, the first biostimulant that naturally reduces the physiological fall of citrus fruits.

It was organized in collaboration with AVA-Asaja and the Committee of Ecological Agriculture of the Valencian Community (CAECV). It was held in a mixed format, before more than 100 people and with a live broadcast followed by a constant audience of more than 240 attendees via streaming. Likewise, it was possible to follow LaincoAGRO profiles through social media networks under # LaincoCítricos and #LaiguantPrime, registering more than 500,000 hits on Twitter.

Hugo Cores, Deputy Head of Sales at Lainco, led the official presentation of Laiguant Prime Cores, highlighting the importance of this new solution. Until now, there were only two solutions on the market to prevent the fruit from falling. Still, they leave residues and are also not suitable for organic farmers. “After more than three years of studies to understand in-depth the physiological, hormonal and nutritional profile, we have verified that this formulation modulates the levels of cytokinins and gibberellins, at the exocarp level and reduces the abscisic acid (ABA), at the peduncle level. Likewise, an enhancement of the Brix degrees has been observed, thus improving the TSS / TA ratio of the treated fruit,” Cores explained.

The technician pointed out that it is an effective product against the physiological fall of the fruit, without phytosanitary or hormonal substances, with zero residues, that does not harm the physiology of the tree and that it is suitable for conventional and ecological agriculture.

Application

Regarding its application, LAINCO recommended a dose of 1.5 lithos/Ha (use a sufficient volume of broth to wet all the vegetation well), making 2 to 3 applications at the beginning of the color change.

To explain first-hand the benefits of the product in the field, Iñaki Torres, Regional Coordinator - Southwest Area of Syntech Research, presented some of the central demonstration studies carried out with Laiguant Prime in the main citrus region of the province of Huelva, having carried out In addition, in two reference farms, for this crop, in the Andévalo area (Huelva), on the Lane Late and Valencia Midknight varieties.

"In both varieties, it was seen that after the application of Laiguant Prime, the fall of the fruit has been reduced to around 60% concerning the control. This also shows that with an extra application close to the harvest, these results increase slightly," Torres said. He also highlighted the importance of the absence of residues after the application of Laiguant Prime, the added value of this biostimulant for both conventional and organic farmers.

This presentation, which coincided with the start of the citrus campaign, counted on its inauguration, with the participation of Cristóbal Aguado, President of the Valencian Association of Farmers (AVA-Asaja). He highlighted the problematic time that the agricultural sector is experiencing in general and citrus in particular due to the lack of tools against pests and diseases, which in many cases are ruining farmers. "In our case. we will continue to ask for solutions for farmers to achieve the objective of environmental sustainability, but also social, and economical."

Added value of sustainable production

The second block of the day was focused on the added value of having sustainable production. It was attended by Cores, José Francisco Sales, Head of the Technical Department of AVA-Asaja, Paco Borrás, Senior International Consultant, and José Antonio Rico, President of the Committee for Ecological Agriculture of the Valencian Community (CAECV).

At this point, all the speakers agreed that sustainability is an added value. However, at the moment, it was not suitable to open new markets but to consolidate themselves in the ones they are already in.
