Abstract:
Methods of fruit thinning fruit bearing plants using photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agents are disclosed. Methods of determining the amount and/or timing of a first dose of photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agents to be applied to a fruit bearing plant to thin fruit on the plant are disclosed. Methods of determining whether a second application of photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agent is required to be applied to thin fruit on the plant, and if so the amount and/or timing thereof, are also disclosed. Methods of determining whether a dose of a photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agent is required to be applied to a fruit bearing plant to thin fruit on the plant.

Claim (Index 19):
A method of determining whether a dose of a photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agent is required to be applied to a fruit bearing plant to thin fruit on the plant, and if so, the amount of a first dose thereof, comprising:\n (i) obtaining meteorological data affecting the fruit bearing plant and/or a measurement of photosynthetic activity of the fruit bearing plant, and (ii) determining whether a dose of the photosynthesis inhibiting fruit thinning agent is required based on the meteorological data and/or photosynthetic activity obtained in step (i), and if so, determining the amount of the first dose based on the meteorological data obtained in step (i).
