Webinar: Apple Challenges & Solutions: A Global Perspective
Watch our webinar to discover expert strategies for maximizing profits while minimizing inputs. Dive into vital topics such as nutrient balance, bitter pit, input costs, and market dynamics with ICL's global network of agronomists.
Apple Production Challenges and Solutions: A Global Perspective
How do we increase apple yields profitably without significantly increasing inputs? Challenges with balancing nutrient levels (Ca, Mg & K), bitter pit, high prices of inputs, and market fluctuation are common for apple producers across the globe.
Tapping into ICL’s network of +200 agronomists, we invited specialist Dr. Diana Wieczorek from ICL’s Apple Crop Expert Group to discuss key global learnings, new research, and best practices from a U.S. perspective.
The panel, led by Dr. Jason Haegele, ICL’s North American Agronomy Lead Agronomist, will explore:
- Common challenges and opportunities for apple producers
- Maximizing inputs with application approaches
- Strategies to increase yield and quality without significantly increasing inputs
- New local and global apple trials.
This webinar was moderated by Fruit Growers News and hosted by ICL Growing Solutions.
