Fruit thinner on apricots
When thinning becomes a passion
The Lotti NEW fruit thinning machine - mounted on the multifunctional CT 80 tool carrier - is able to reduce the thinning costs of about 60% and even more. Thanks to its nylon brushes, the fruits are set down the trees without damaging the remaining ones. In addition, the machine's movements make even easier to get in and out of the row and could increase or decrease the effectiveness of the fruit thinner, deciding this way how many fruits should be dropped down.
Fruit thinning is very important in stone fruits to get more quality fruits and consequently higher incomes and is less risky than thinning on flowers, as frosty nights won't be a threat any more during thinning period.
