Remedium TI - HLB Control

HLB (Citrus Greening Disease) is caused by a phloem-inhabiting proteo-bacteria, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Clas)

HLB is the most damaging disease of citrus, with symptoms including:

• Reduced tree health and vigor

• Leaf chlorosis, tree canopy and root biomass

• Reduced quantity of yield

• Reduced quality of yield, both internal and external

• Increased fruit drop

• Misshapen fruit

HLB Management

Currently, no citrus management program has been able to stop HLB from ravaging citrus groves. Current management practices include:

• Increased insecticide applications to control the vector (psyllid)

• Due to a decline in tree health, increased pesticide applications to control other pathogens

• Increased tree population density

• Increased foliar fertilizer and liquid fertilizer chemigation

• Novel trunk injection anti microbial

• Dissolved in 1.8-2.0 water buffered with
muriatic acid

• Stabilizes Oxytetracycline and allows
uniform distribution throughout the tree

• Pressure Fluidized Latex Injection device for trunk-injecting ReMedium TI™

• Acid Resistant & reusable

• Volume flexibility allows for one hole, once
per year on bearing citrus
