    Product Info

    During certain times of the year, climatic conditions (such as low light levels or cool temperatures) can trigger ethylene production by the pineapple plant, resulting in flower induction and fruiting which is out of synch with the normal production schedule. This condition, known as Naturally Differentiated Flowering (NDF) leads to a disrupted supply of fruit, increased harvest costs, smaller fruit and lower returns per acre. A well-managed PinCor program keeps NDF under control and allows pineapple growers to harvest the crop on schedule.
