OLIVE TREE: Effective nutritional strategies in vegetative development

Considering that the flowers (and therefore the fruits) of the olive tree develop from the flower buds that arise from the branch of the previous year, in the vegetative growth phase it is necessary to make sure that the plant generates new and abundant sprouts for the following year.

In addition, in this phase, in preparation for flowering, it is essential to provide elements such as phosphorus, boron and calcium to induce a greater differentiation of the fruit buds and improve the fertility of the flowers, then the potting.

Fertiliser plans for traditional and intensive olive cultivation

TRADITIONAL CULTIVATION

In the vegetative recovery phase we recommend the use of:

  • OLIVO (or Super Red) with a dosage of 300 kg/ha
  • LEAF N with a dosage of 4 l/ha by foliar

After 15 days:

  • LEAF N with a dosage of 4 l/ha by foliar

In pre-flowering:
