Input planning takes into account the expected production for each planting season, aiming to obtain the best cost/benefit ratio, and decisions about which hybrids will be planted are based on our research database and according to the biotechnologies identified as necessary for the production system.

Good irrigation should be ensured throughout the growing cycle. The flowering and fruit set stages are especially sensitive to water shortage. This can lead to flower tip rot and fruit failure.
