In an open-air commercial tomato plantation fertigated with saline water (mean CE of the water used: 5.2 dS m-1), we studied the effect on the incidence of apical necrosis (blossom-end rot) and the nutritional state of the crop when calcium nitrate (CN) and AminoQuelant-Ca (AQ) were added to the irrigation solution .

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two sources of calcium applied by fertigation on the incidence of apical necrosis in tomato crops in saline conditions. The treatments tested were the following: AQ (application of AminoQuelant-Ca), NC (application of Ca(NO3)2) and T (control, with no extra calcium)

This study evaluated the effect of different leaf treatments carried out with a compound of calcium with amino acids and a calcium chloride standard solution on the mineral content in leaves and fruits, and on several quality parameters. Increased calcium in the fruit was associated with increased hardness and reduced incidence of bitter pit.
