ANTLES POLLEN
Our company was founded in 1929 by pollination enhancements pioneer Leo Antles. Since then, Antles Pollen has led the way in developing and refining controlled pollination in tree-fruit, nut and seed crops.
Antles Pollen provides growers of tree-fruit and nut crops with an ever-expanding body of knowledge, products, services and technology to improve pollination and fertilization.
Antles Pollen has facilities in the farming regions of Wenatchee and Yakima, Washington and Modesto, California. We serve growers of apples, almonds, cherries, pears, kiwifruit, pistachios and other crops with pollination enhancement solutions including our patented Vericet pollination nutrition system, and plant nutrition programs to set and hold crops.
We work hand-in-hand with you when you use our products and services to maximize your fruit/nut set and to stay on top of breakthroughs in controlled pollination technology.
What makes Antles Pollen different?
Since 1929, Antles Pollen has been a pioneer in the pollination enhancement field.
Unlike standard “anther-grade pollen,” we separate our pollen so there is no anther sac or other extraneous material. That way you know you’re getting the purest, most effective pollen you can buy.
In addition, the carrier we add, called Vericet, is a bio-active, nutritional material.
Vericet delivers a carefully crafted blend of plant constituents, metabolic accelerators, balanced minerals and other factors that facilitate rapid and accurate pollen tube growth. It also enhances the receptivity of the awaiting ovules in the ovary. Together, these set the stage for ideal pollination and fertilization that results in superior fruit/nut set.
Vericet also stimulates honeybee activity in the orchard. This increase in bee traffic means more flowers will be visited by bees, resulting in greater transfer of pollen and Vericet to those flowers that are ready for pollination and fertilization. This is how superior crops are set.
