The fruit tree production sector is one of the most important sectors suffering from soil degradation and water scarcity. The use of zeolite helps provide solutions to these problems.

Benefits of adding Zeolite to Fruit Trees:

• Increased soil moisture retention available to trees and reduced evaporation.
• Increased availability of added fertilizers to trees.
• Improved physical and chemical properties of the soil in the tree’s root zone.
• Protection of trees from agricultural pests and increased their resistance to stress.

Expected Results:

• Significant improvement in the overall condition of trees and encouragement of vegetative and fruit growth.
• Improved fruit quality and taste, extended shelf life after harvest, and increased storage period.
• Increased water and fertilizer use efficiency.
• Increased production by improving tree health and increasing fruit size.
• Increased active ingredient ratios in fruits (e.g., oil in olives, acids in citrus).
• Protection of trees from diseases and insects and increased their tolerance to stress from adverse climatic and soil conditions.
• Increased profits and returns from tree cultivation.
