3. Macadamia critical areas
Spring Flush: Strong and early
Photosynthesis – mature leaves during nut fill
Active Roots – optimal nutrient uptake (Ca, B)
Plant physiology – redistribution, translocation
Flowering: Plant physiology
Flower development – strong, even
Early development – fertility, good set, cell division.
Nut Drop – limit, stress factors
Autumn Flush: Storing reserves
Photosynthesis, Active Roots
Plant physiology – stress during production cycle, water and nutrient management

4. Verios Plant Performance
StimuMac – a management tool developed to enable trees to deliver optimal performance despite seasonal, root zone difficulties:
Unique combination of four products in a programme that activate, stimulate and strengthen roots and general tree performance.
Synergistic effect between products in programme
Applied during critical stages: Aug/Sept and Nov/Dec
Applied through irrigation system
Marketed as StimuRoot since 2005 and specialised for macadamia in 2012

5. Verios Plant Performance
Goemar – a natural seaweed filtrate of unique origin and metabolite make up which acts as a physio activator to stimulate root activity, plant metabolism and poly-amine synthesis:
NOT just a Kelp
Poly-amines are essential for fertility, set and early development.
Activation of plant physiology improves nutrient uptake and redistribution
Applied as foliar spray at onset of flowering
Improved yield and quality (NB)
Improved sustainable production (ON-ON years)

6. Verios Plant Performance
Optimum yield and quality
Improved sustainable production (ON-ON years)
Reduced risk of production
Improved orchard productive lifespan
