Cherries
Buin, Chile · September 2020
The Kyminasi Plants Crop Booster™ was installed on 4 hectares of cherry trees in Buin, Chile on August 30, 2020. Just three days later — on September 2 — a soil-water infiltration test was conducted, measuring how deeply the irrigation water penetrated the soil over time. Results were compared between the KPCB-treated field and an untreated control. According to the grower, these results were unprecedented on this farm.
KPCB Installed: August 30, 2020 · Test date: September 2, 2020 · Target depth: 70 cm · KPCB: 8 hrs vs. Control: 16 hrs
This case study documents an outcome that is distinct from typical yield or quality trials: the physical behavior of water itself changed after KPCB treatment. The fact that results appeared just 3 days after installation — and were described by the grower as unprecedented — points to a rapid and measurable change in how KPCB-treated water interacts with soil structure. For growers managing water-intensive crops like cherries in regions where irrigation efficiency is critical, a 2× improvement in infiltration speed represents a meaningful operational and economic advantage.

The Kyminasi Plants Crop Booster™ was installed on a field of cherry trees in Chile and compared against an untreated control field at harvest. The KPCB-treated field produced significantly more fruit — and the improved quality allowed the cherries to command a higher price per kilogram, compounding the financial advantage beyond yield alone.
| Metric | 🍒 KPCB Field | Control Field |
|---|---|---|
| Total Yield | 23,438 kg | 18,735 kg |
| Price per kg | $6.00 | $5.00 |
| Total Revenue | $140,628 | $93,675 |
| Additional Profit | +$46,953 per hectare in favor of KPCB | |
KPCB yield: 23,438 kg @ $6/kg = $140,628 · Control yield: 18,735 kg @ $5/kg = $93,675 · Additional profit: $46,953/hectare
The cherry trial in Chile stands out as one of the clearest demonstrations of KPCB's compounding commercial value. The 25% yield increase and the $1/kg quality premium are independently significant results — but together they add up to nearly $47,000 per hectare in additional profit. For cherry growers operating in competitive export markets where both volume and quality grades determine revenue, this kind of outcome represents a fundamental improvement in the economics of the operation.
