Get the most out of trees and maximize revenue with Rhizolizer® Duo soil “probiotic” technology
Florida Growers Found The Secret ToTangerine Tree Vigor
Now more than ever citrus growers need tools that can improve both productivity and profitability. Some in Florida are finding success using a solution that works below the surface—Rhizolizer® Duo soil “probiotic” technology.
So what exactly is Rhizolizer Duo? Voted 2019 Best Biological of the Year, it’s a naturally occurring microbial soil amendment, or “probiotic”, comprised of two living microorganisms. The easy-to-apply liquid product colonizes tree roots and promotes early root development. Rhizolizer Duo can be easily applied to current growing practices and specifically addresses top citrus challenges—including root die back.
Let’s take a look at an example. In a Central Florida field trial, Rhizolizer Duo was used to treat Fallglo X Cleo tangerines originally planted in 1993. A 6-month root analysis was gathered through the use of root traps. The results were impressive:
Tangerine trees treated with Rhizolizer Duo showed a substantial increase in root mass compared to those treated with standard growing practices. Rhizolizer Duo supported more vibrant, fibrous roots, which allowed for little to no root die back on the tangerine trees.
Increased root weight and volume leads to improved tree vigor and nutrient uptake to help maximize profits.
