Pcfruit developed a simple dose calculator, a tool in cardboard paper, which simply gives the grower the amount of crop protection product, as well as the amount of water, he has to use to treat his fruit plantation. The tool is developed for growers with small parcels with vertical crops (raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, currants, vineyards, ... but with small adaptations the tool can as well be used by pome fruit growers. The cardboard tool is specifically developed to help fruit growers without ICT capabilites or access. Dose and water calculations are based on the calculation of the treated leaf wall area (LWA) in vertical crop systems, which is used in Belgium on labels and product recommendations.
