Bioz® Keep Green is the first biofertilizer developed to protect coffee tree leaves from excessive solar radiation, providing an increase of up to five sacks per hectare in terms of productivity, close to 9% more earnings on average.

When solar radiation reaches the leaves, the chlorophyll absorbs the solar energy and transforms it into chemical energy. The plant will use this energy to transform the atmospheric CO2, which enters the leaves through the stomata, into carbohydrates (sugars: fructose and glucose). These carbohydrates are the energy that plant cells use for their metabolism to make the plant grow and produce coffee beans.
But excessing sunlight can result in high temperatures in the leaves and leads to thermal and water stress. Bioz® Keep Green increases the chlorophyll content in the leaves and improves stomatal control, which helps plants make better use of the sunlight, boosting photosynthesis, and reducing damage caused by solar radiation, leading to greener plants and improved yields.
The recommendation is that growers apply Keep Green to new coffee crops after transplanting and repeat the application after 60 days. In adult crops, each application should be 7.5 L/ha between September and October.
Our research demonstrates that this improves protection from excessing solar radiation throughout the crop cycle and delivers significant gains in productivity. And the product is 100% compatible with the other main products available on the market, which means they can be applied at the same as Keep Green.
