Chicago-based Hazel Technologies, Inc. has announced a collaboration with Bakersfield, Calif.-based Anthony Vineyards, Inc.
Anthony Vineyards saw significant results after trialing Hazel’s flagship technology on conventional table grape varieties, Scarlet Royal and Red Globe, according to a news release.
“I heard really positive things about Hazel from fellow growers Jasmine, Illume, and elsewhere in the industry, but was honestly a little skeptical of the technology before we started our trial,” Rope Eddy, ranch manager at Anthony Vineyards, said in the release. “After working with their attentive team and seeing significantly greener stems on our storage grapes at the end of the season, I’m a true believer in Hazel Tech’s products and can’t wait to see what they can do for the rest of our conventional table grapes in 2022.”
Nearly 100% of domestic grapes are grown in California, Aidan Mouat, co-founder and CEO of Hazel Technologies, Inc., said in the release.
“Knowing that table grape growers throughout California and the rest of the world are starting to trust Hazel 100 and the results the technology provides makes me confident our technology will protect a substantial segment of conventional table grapes in the coming years,” he said.
