Pineapple
Pineapple fruit is one of the most popular tropical fruits in the world, consumed either as a tasty and juicy fresh fruit or processed into slices, concentrate, and juice. In any case, good fertilization management plays a key role in satisfying consumer demands.
The pineapple is an herbaceous perennial plant grown mainly in tropical areas worldwide. It requires three years from planting to replanting, during which time it produces two crops and requires larger amounts of nutrients. Pineapples can be grown once (a single cycle) or in one or more additional ratoon cycles. The cycles vary in duration, depending on the climatic conditions, the vigor of the plant material and the management of the cultivar.
