Cravo's international sales team continue to gain valuable insight with the help of Dr Greg Lang.
On June 12, 2013, Cravo's international sales team and distributors visited the cherry trials at Michigan State University to see first hand how the cherry trees developed on the open field, under a conventional rain shelter and under the Cravo X Frame greenhouse. During the visit, Dr Greg Lang shared his observations along with preliminary data.
Further discussions took place addressing detailed strategies for how to use the retractable roof to:
- advance the flowering period by 10 days to 3 weeks
- increase overall photosynthesis to allow for a heavier fruit load
- accelerate the growth rate to bring fruit to maturity faster
- delay the ripening process to increase fruit size
- prevent fruit splitting
- prevent double fruiting
