The short time available for impollination of kiwi flowers of female plants could lead to a considerable waste of time and resources, but IDEAL designed a special machine to obtain better results in less time thanks to a suitable pollination system.
“KW POLLINATOR” is a P.T.O. driven equipment that allows to spray liquid pollen at 4 km/h speed. It is equipped with two distributors with adjustable inclination and height. They are supported by an extensible boom for one row, so that it is suitable for all the different plantation systems.
