🍊 CITRUS FRUITS

🍊 AQUASOL AGRO for Citrus Trees

Citrus trees require precise water management to maintain good vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and fruit quality. In areas such as Valencia, Murcia, and Andalusia, drought and high temperatures can directly affect crop yields.

AQUASOL AGRO acts as an agricultural water-retaining hydrogel, helping maintain available moisture in the root zone and promoting more efficient use of irrigation water during the driest periods.

🌱 Recommended application

• Orange trees.
• Mandarin trees.
• Lemon trees.
• Grapefruits.
• New citrus plantations.
• Replanting.
• Young trees.
• Mature trees.
• Sandy soils or soils with low water retention.

✅ Benefits

📦 Recommended dosage

Young tree (0–2 years):
10 g per tree

Developing tree (2–5 years):
100 g per tree 

Mature tree (+5 years):

10 g per cm of trunk circumference

Example: 50 cm trunk circumference = 500 g 

Very dry or sandy soils, or soils under severe water stress:
The dosage can be adjusted according to field conditions, water availability, soil texture, and irrigation system.

🚜 Compatible application methods
