BREVIS® is a new thinning agent for apples and pears, in a sector that has seen no innovations for the last five years. It offers numerous benefits to growers, demonstrated during type approval tests carried out in previous years.
Its non-hormonal mode of action produces
- consistently effective results in varied climactic conditions, irrespective of temperature
- a clear correlation between dose of thinning application and results: a reliable solution particularly for difficult-to-thin varieties or in years where there is an abundance of flowers.
- no negative side effects on sensitive varieties such as the formation of pygmy fruit
Its versatility allows the fruit grower to adapt product positioning to suit the land, the variety of tree in question and relevant supply targets.
BREVIS ®may be used:
o When fruit is between 6mm and 16 mm in diameter, and ideally between 8mm and 12 mm.
o In one or two applications,
o with customisable dose: between 1.1kg and 2.2 kg per application.
The combined flexibility, efficacy and consistent performance provided by BREVIS® allows growers to tailor application strategy to suit their land, reduces the amount of time spent hand-thinning, and helps simplify their work.
BREVIS® has a significant, positive effect on key factors determining the value of the harvest: grade and quality parameters (sweetness and firmness), ensuring optimum sales for the grower.
The toxicological profile complies with the sector's most stringent standards: non detectable residues, worker and bee-friendly.
Fruit thinning is a major preoccupation of fruit growers; it is one of the most complex cultivation processes and is a major determinant of end product;
BREVIS® simplifies this process and makes it much safer.

NB: organisers of Sival Innovation: this product was submitted to the 2015 Sival Innovation Competition but had not obtained certification at that time. The judging panel then asked the applicant to resubmit the project once approval was obtained.
