Batallón
Industrial tomato, varieties H1015 and H2401
Chapatales, Spain
The application of BATALLÓN in the cultivation of industrial tomatoes of the varieties H1015 and H2401 caused an increase in productivity of 8% and 25% or 7,647 and 26,396 kg/ha, respectively.
This increase is due to the fact that tomato plants treated with BATALLON had greater vigor and greater number of active leaves, making the process of photosynthesis (manufacture of sugar and biomass) longer and more intense, thus obtaining greater production of sugars in fruits.
