In the horticultural region of Poás, Alajuela, Costa Rica, grower Orlando Valverde has proven that prevention is key to maintaining tomato crop health. For several seasons, he has integrated GotaBlanca 500 into his crop management program, and the results speak for themselves: vigorous foliage, uniform development, and visibly healthier plants.
Today, his tomato field—just one month and eight days after transplanting—shows clean, strong foliage, a reflection of preventive management that helps avoid plant deterioration and enhances harvest quality.
“Since I started applying GotaBlanca preventively, the crop stays healthy. You can see the difference in the plant, in the leaves, in all the foliage. That allows us to lower the chemical load, because we don’t have to use as many traditional products,” explains Mr. Valverde.
Technology that makes a difference
GotaBlanca 500 is a solution developed by ClearLeaf, based on a patented technology that combines elemental silver and surface copolymers. This formulation protects crops from fungi and bacteria without leaving harmful residues, contributing to safer agriculture for growers, consumers, and the environment.
Regular use helps maintain consistent foliar health, reduces dependency on conventional agrochemicals, and optimizes productivity without compromising agricultural sustainability.
“The plant stays healthier, and that shows in the harvest. With GotaBlanca, we achieve high-quality tomatoes with an excellent appearance,” adds the grower.
A step toward more responsible agriculture
Experiences like Mr. Valverde’s in Costa Rica demonstrate that it is possible to produce with excellence and responsibility — protecting the soil, the health of those who grow our food, and that of those who consume it.
At ClearLeaf, our commitment is to promote modern, sustainable, and safe agriculture, offering effective solutions that address today’s farming challenges without compromising the natural balance of the environment.
