Water Efficiency

A strategy to maximise the use of available water.

Fix & Release
Improves soil wetness and lateral spread of moisture to provide uniform wetting of the soil profile.

Problem

Heat Stress

Solution

Use stress mitigators to reduce the impact of heat stress on vines.

Products

Bombardier
