Guest Speaker -- Dwayne Bowman Is the lifeblood of your operation sweet and hang on trees or vines? Are you marketing tree and vine fruits only to find your produce undervalued by the marketplace? If so why? Fresh fruit is a wonderful gift from our Creator meant to be savored for its excellent flavor. While vegetables and other foods have their place, nothing else can take fresh fruits’ position as “cream of the crop.” Fruit quality can be measured from many perspectives including, proper sizing, flavor, brix reading, market value, total solids, acid to brix ratio, storage characteristics, and nutrient density. From a growers perspective getting beyond alternate bearing and achieving consistent good yields is a tremendous indicator of success. Ultimately fruit production must be profitable. And for that to happen the market must value your fruit above mediocre. To be a resounding success in fruit production you need to over deliver on quality by completely surpassing market expectations. When eating your fresh fruit elicits a response of “Wow—this is the best apple (or whatever fruit) I have ever eaten” then you just created a high fidelity epicurean experience. At this point you can just about name your price. This is the key to wild success in fruit production. Fruit Trees on Steroids is an indepth look at the nutritional foundations it takes to produce topquality fruit in today’s competitive environment. We also look at how to incorporate nutritional foliar sprays to increase flavor and shelf life, help size cherries, and reduce bitter-pit in apples. Dwayne Bowman will share his story and the results he has seen following our fertility program for the last 2 years. An International Ag Labs course you don't want to miss!
