In the vegetable-growing region of Poás, Alajuela, Costa Rica, grower Orlando Valverde has found that prevention is key to maintaining tomato plant health.
For several growing seasons now, he has incorporated GotaBlanca 500 into his crop management program, and the results speak for themselves: crops with vigorous foliage, uniform development, and a visibly healthier appearance.
Currently, the plantation—which is just one month and eight days old—has clean, strong foliage, reflecting preventive management practices that prevent plant deterioration and improve crop quality.
“Ever since I started using GotaBlanca as a preventive measure, the crop has stayed healthy. You can really see the difference in the plant, in the leaves, and in all the foliage. That allows us to reduce our use of chemicals, because we don’t have to use as many traditional products,” says Don Orlando.
