Drought stress in tomatoes

AMALGEROL ESSENCE in the field test: Less stress. No yield loss.

Treatment with the biostimulant AMALGEROL ESSENCE has been shown to help significantly reduce or completely prevent damage from drought stress. This has been proven in a scientific trial conducted at the Vegenov Institute in France. Tomato plants were exposed to different conditions in a greenhouse.

1.      No stress - optimum water supply:
Plants develop normally, as do yields. No stress was detected via the biochemical marker proline and a measurement of stomatal conductivity.

2.      Drought stress - reduction of water supply by 50%:
A significant proline increase as well as a 35% reduction in stomatal conductivity provide evidence of significant water stress. Yield almost halved!

3.      Drought stress - reduction of water quantity by 50% + treatment with AMALGEROL ESSENCE:
The stress measurement results in significantly lower values than in the untreated plants.
Yield losses are hardly noticeable!

Hardly any yield loss after treatment with AMALGEROL ESSENCE
