Acron specialists harvest 19 tonnes of blueberries per hectare in Stavropol Krai

Acron Group experts have trialled a modern blueberry nutrition system on farmland in Stavropol Krai using Acron’s high-quality fertilisers to help increase yields.

Combining NPK 16-16-16 with CALINKA® Grade A Premium (calcium nitrate, CN) resulted in a yield of 18.9 tonnes per hectare, compared with the farm’s average yield of 17.4 tonnes per hectare.

Viktor Voronchikhin, a leading specialist in domestic markets at Acron’s Marketing Department, said, ‘The high yields show that we have selected the right nutrition system. Applying 249 kilograms per hectare of NPK 16-16-16 and 150 kilograms per hectare of CN by fertigation during bud swelling ensured an optimal nutrient balance and boosted yields by 9%’.

Farmers also praised the quality of Acron’s mineral fertilisers, particularly the excellent solubility of CALINKA® Grade A Premium and its reliable, user-friendly packaging.

Acron Group specialists have developed nutrition systems for major crops, taking into account their biological requirements and the agrochemical properties of the soil. They continue to introduce science-based nutrition programmes at leading Russian agricultural companies and provide agronomic advice.
