Kolecti, from Santa Catarina, has been operating for 10 years in the provision of orchard implantation services, recovery of genetic material, pollination, collection and processing of pine and eucalyptus seeds. Confirmed among the exhibitors at Expoforest, the company that serves giants in the Brazilian forest base sector, will have pollination work as a highlight at the fair.

One of Kolecti’s expertise, controlled pollination, can be used to carry out specific crossings between the best genotypes, maximizing forest gains. “We carry out pollinations, massais, diallels and supplements”, says Júlio César Soznoski, director of the company.

The pollen application technology varies according to the location of the flowers on the plant, and can be done manually, on the ground (with an ATV); or at height, with the aid of an aerial basket, or drone. Kolecti’s pollination with a drone is carried out in partnership with the North American company Dropcopter, which developed the technology for an exclusive dispenser, specific for pollen application.

Supplementary pollination technology has shown surprising results in increasing the productivity and quality of seeds and fruits, of forest species, cereals, vegetables and fruit.

“Visit our stand at the fair and learn more about these opportunities to increase the productivity of your business”, invites Júlio César.
