Most horticultural areas will continue to receive high temperatures and UV radiation for the remainder of January and February.
Surround® Crop Protectant reduces crop damage caused by sunburn and heat stress when used according to the product label.
Saturating visible light, high temperature and UV radiation combine to cause sunburn damage. Surround reduces damage by reducing light levels, temperature and UV levels at the fruit surface.
Surround is made from natural Kaolin that is refined and processed to provide an optimum formulation for protection against sunburn and heat stress.
The production process for Surround is unique, and includes a step known as calcining, whereby the kaolin is heated in a giant kiln to alter the crystal shape to a 3-dimensional highly, reflective structure.
Only Surround contains this calcined Kaolin, and as the latest data confirms, this ensures that the product provides the greatest level of radiation reflection compared to hydrous kaolin and calcium carbonate.
