How Per-Hectare Pollen Demand Is Determined
Every pistillate kiwifruit flower contains an ovary with over 1,000 independent ovules. To achieve Class 1 commercial size (>100g) and premium Dry Matter Content (DMC >17%), each blossom must receive an adequate load of viable pollen grains within 48–72 hours of anthesis.
| Cultivar / Species | Flower Density / ha | Target Pure Pollen Dose | Pass Strategy | Stigma Receptivity Window |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Actinidia chinensis (SunGold G3, Dorì, Jingold) | 380,000 – 520,000 | 450 g / ha | Split application (25% bloom + 75% bloom) | 48 – 72 hours max from anthesis |
| Actinidia deliciosa (Hayward) | 220,000 – 320,000 | 350 g / ha | Single or dual application (40% + 80%) | 4 – 6 days from bloom opening |
| Actinidia chinensis / melanandra (Red Kiwifruit) | 400,000 – 550,000 | 500 g / ha | Rapid dual pass with electrostatic precision | 36 – 48 hours (early spring bloom) |
Lycopodium clavatum Carrier
Dehydrated Lycopodium spores act as an electrostatic spacer (12 kV), ensuring laminar flow in pneumatic dispensers, preventing volumetric clumping, and reducing drift waste by over 40%.
-18°C Cryogenic Cold Chain
Hermetically sealed vials must remain at -18°C until 20 minutes before field hopper loading. Thawing at ambient temperature with an unbroken seal prevents dew point condensation and cellular lysis.
EU Plant Passport RUOP
All calculated batches are certified under EU Plant Passport RUOP IT-12-1908 with mandatory accredited Real-Time PCR negative results for Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (PSA Biovar 3).
