This webinar is titled ‘Optimizing growth by anion supply.’ It will present very practical key and innovative topics about this subject in ornamental and vegetable crops. As the webinar is a live broadcast, viewers will be able to ask questions, and receive an immediate reply from the Haifa team.
These webinars will be delivered by Prof. Leo Marcelis, Head of chair group Horticulture and Product Physiology and are organized in a co-production with Wageningen University, the Netherlands. The webinar sessions are intended to provide comprehensive knowledge and to assist growers, horticulture professionals, and advisors.
Nearly 1,000 worldwide viewers already watched and highly rated Haifa Group’s first webinar ‘Optimizing Quality’ that was broadcasted on December 2014.
Innovative Applications
One of the main subjects to be discussed during the second webinar will be the relation between growth of the crop and the supply of the anions sulfate, nitrate, and phosphate. The other function of these minerals in plants will be discussed: what is the response on growth at different concentrations. Prof. Leo Marcelis explains how the availability of these minerals depends on other factors on top of that.
The webinar covers innovative applications and practices in vegetable and ornamental crops.
