For fruit growers here in the Golden State, environmental extremes such as heat stress and unpredictable rain can challenge tree health and fruit production.

Today, Jeremy Hamlin with Cultiva joins us to discuss how innovative plant health solutions like Parka are helping fruit growers protect their crop…

“Parka is a patented and proven plant health and protection solution that enhances the fruit vegetable and the leaf cuticles. It helps heal microfractures which minimizes unnecessary water loss and fruit cracking, ultimately improving fruit finish and protecting against heat stress and sunburn.”

According to Hamlin, one of the features that sets Parka apart is that it is both translucent and residue free…

“It has a novel mode of action which creates a protective barrier around the fruit and the plant that help boost antioxidant production and supports increased photosynthesis for healthier, more productive trees and plants.”

If he’s piqued your interest, here’s what he had to say as far as incorporating the product…

“We have a broad tank-mix compatibility, zero MRLs and PHIs. Parka fits easily into any spray program and reduces the number of sprayer passes each season.”
