Citrosol show by example their commitment to R & D, with the transfer and sharing of their scientific knowledge
The International Society for Horticultural Science organized the eighth International Postharvest Symposium to be held in Cartagena between 21 & 24 June. Citrosol, the Valencian company, are diamond sponsors at this renowned scientific meeting and will use the event to present their innovative strategy designed to tackle the problem of postharvest rind disorders in citrus fruit. The cornerstone of their new weapon are the bio-stimulants in Fortisol Ca®.
Citrosol will maintain a very visible profile at this symposium to be held at the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. Firstly, the Potríes company will be exhibiting with its own stand; and then, on Thursday 23 at 13.00 hrs the CEO of the company, Benito Orihuel, will give a lecture in which he will describe a series of trials and studies that establish how the bio-stimulants in Fortisol Ca® are the best solution to prevent and eradicate certain disorders and 'postharvest chemical burns' found at the bottom of some citrus fruit bins.
"Citrosol identified that this defect can occur as a result of the use of some fungicides in the drencher" Benito Orihuel advised, "and we achieved extraordinary test results by adding Fortisol Ca® as a preventive solution to the fungicide treatments in the drencher."
The rind disorders that become evident in Clementines, oranges and lemons affect only a small percentage of the fruit; however, its development can result in significant economic losses for the operators and packing houses. Thus, it can be seen that the strategy presented by Citrosol at this symposium will provide a clear response to the needs of the sector.
There are different factors apparent in citrus fruit rind disorders, far beyond the use of certain fungicides. External factors may be related to weather conditions both before and during the harvest. However, there are other endogenous elements which can be mitigated; Fortisol Ca® provides an effective protection against the said disorder, even leading to the complete eradication of the damage.
Symposium 'Improving the supply chain; consumer advantages: ethical and technological aspects'
The symposium’s promoter, the Sociedad Internacional de Ciencias Hortícolas (SICH) is present in 50 countries, has more than 7,500 individual members and considerable institutional representation. For this, the VIII International Postharvest Symposium, promoted under the heading 'Improving the supply chain, consumer advantages: ethical and technological aspects', the organizers wanted to have experts from research centers of the highest caliber. American guests from Cornell University, the Postharvest Education Foundation and the Texas A&M International University, Stellenbosch University in South Africa, the Plant & Food Research Center in New Zealand, the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, the Italian University, Degli Studi Di Foggia and the Spanish Miguel Hernandez will be among the "invited scientists" with as many as 10 presentations covering distinct areas of post-harvest.
Scientific program in Cartagena. Citrosol as Diamond sponsor
The symposium, with Citrosol as a Diamond sponsor, is to consist of ten oral presentation sessions with others through literature and informative posters. It will encompass new approaches, such as the application of Omic Sciences to postharvest biology, together with other issues such as analysis of the diseases and physiological disorders.
The latest technology in controlled environments will have its own session as will transport and distribution together with quality control methods. In addition, there will be a discussion on how to evaluate the quality and safety of the equipment, with further time dedicated to discussing how consumer preferences are driving new lines of research and development. There will also be a workshop on affordable pre- and postharvest technologies for developing countries. Finally, the symposium will close with a key note speech on international cooperation in education, research and the sharing of technology.
Over recent years Citrosol has been the main sponsor of various scientific Conferences and Symposia, among those which stand out are the XII International Citrus Congress held in Valencia in 2012, the XI National Symposium on Ripening and Postharvest in 2014, sponsorship of the Global G.A.P. Tour as it passed through Almería in May 2015 and the principal sponsorship of the XIV National Congress of Horticultural Sciences held last June in Orihuela. With such work, the Valencian company has shown, by example, its commitment to and contribution toward the promotion of the transfer and dissemination of scientific knowledge.
