Ripening committee, May 16, 2024
16 May 2024 | 8:00 am - 12:00 pm
During the event, we will:
a discussion on dose expansion of the use of trinexapac-ethyl as a growth regulator to improve sucrose content. On the other hand, we will learn about the validation experiments of maturation practices in experiments with suppliers. Finally, in light of these results and other resources, a joint generation of strategies for the transfer of ripening technology to mills and growers is proposed with the aim of increasing the matured area of the industry.
Who is it for:
- Mill maturation engineers.
- Harvest and field managers of the sugar mills.
- Heads of agronomy and research at the sugar mills.
- Mill supply engineers.
- Cenicaña researchers.
