DELTAFINA SPAIN and IBERTABACO, S.C. decided to sign a relationship with FRABELSE to carry out a trail in 2015 season, in order to study the viability and the future prospects of the tobacco crop using only organic products as fertilizers and CPA, regarding to achieve tobacco free of chemical residues and also Nitrate-free.
This trail was developed in the farm of one of the IBERTABACO, S.C. members, in a field with 1,36 ha, using only products supplied by FRABELSE in combination with a biological suckericide; some of the different products are the following:
EM AGRO (microorganisms)
SUPER K (supplier of potassium using Carbon Micro Technology)
CARBOTERRA (Nematicide and fungicide using Carbon Micro Technology)
PT4 (soil activator)
PHOX MAX (supplier of Phosphorus using Carbon Micro Technology)
GRREN FACTOR (Nitrogen fixer)
During the season we tried to test different things, but at the end the most useful information was: yield, tobacco quality and residues. All this main parameters compared with the traditional production in Spain and looking for the sustainability of this kind of crop management in the future.
The main conclusions are available in the following paragraph but one of the most important conclusion was the need to continue developing this project in the next 2-3 years to achieve a better knowledge of this new technology.
CONCLUSIONS
In the following stages of the plant, it has had a more precocious development and growth thanks to the action of Green Factor. Green Factor has worked accelerating the crop cycle, resulting a faster maturation and an earlier harvesting.
