Paperback. Zustand: Good. Temperate climate fruit trees grown in subtropical and tropical regions need artificial stimulation to start the production cycle.

As a result, the search for alternative products for inducing sprouting in temperate fruit trees is of great interest to growers and researchers, who have discovered alternatives such as garlic extract and later garlic stick hydrolate.…
