FitoMaat® is formulated with glycine betaine, a natural osmoprotectant compound that has been proven to protect a plant’s physiological processes when undergoing stress, maintaining growth and production, preventing damage, and aiding in the crop’s recovery.
Crops exposed to different environmental stress situations (drought, heat, cold, salinity) that drastically reduce productivity. FitoMaat® is formulated with glycine betaine, a natural osmoprotectant compound that has been proven to protect a plant’s physiological processes when undergoing stress, maintaining growth and production, preventing damage, and aiding in the crop’s recovery.
FitoMaat® additionally contains the amino acid proline, which works in synergy with glycine betaine to enhance protection against stress and lengthen the effects of the latter.
FitoMaat® also incorporates antioxidants that aid the plant’s cells to detoxify, enhancing the efficiency of its anti-stress, osmoprotectant effects.
System and time of application
FitoMaat® can be applied by either foliar sprinkling or fertigation to protect against any potential environmental stress situations. Likewise, FitoMaat® can be used and applied preventively, prior to stress situations, thanks to its fast absorption and its prolonged beneficial effects. FitoMaat® is suitable for use in the prevention of rain cracking in fruits such as cherry, when applied prior to heavy rainfall. FitoMaat® is suitable for use on a large number of crops and phenological development stages.
Stability and storage
FitoMaat® remains stable for at least 3 years from manufacturing date. Store in a cool and well-ventilated place. Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from food, drink and feedstuffs.
Compatibility
FitoMaat® is compatible with most pesticides and fertilisers. However, it is recommended to perform a compatibility test prior to crop application.

Dosing according to the crop
Crop | Irrigation (Kg/Ha) | Foliar (%) | Application |
---|---|---|---|
Vegetable crops, melon and watermelon | 2 | 0,1-0,2 | At the beginning of flowering, and two further applications during fruit growth (every 15 days). |
Citrus trees | 1 | 0,1 | At the beginning of flowering; repeat application at petal fall and during fruit growth. |
Stone fruit trees | 2 – 3 | 0,2 | During fruit colour change, and prior to stress. |
Olive trees | 3 | 0,3 | At the start of flowering and fruit formation. |
Strawberries | 1 – 2 | 0,2 | 3 treatments throughout crop cultivation. |
Table grape | 1 – 2 | 0,2 | During vegetative growth and two further applications during berry growth. |
