Citrus
Bakersfield, California · 2023
Kyminasi Fruits™ technology was installed on Sunburst Citrus's 100-acre certified organic orange grove in Bakersfield, California. Results are reported as net gain over prior years' historical average values — making this one of the most compelling long-term benchmarks in the Kyminasi case study library.
| Measurement | Prior Years (Historical Average) | 🍊 Kyminasi Fruits™ — 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Orange Size Increase | Baseline (Historical Avg) | +20–30% Larger |
| Fruit per Tree Increase | Baseline (Historical Avg) | +53% More Fruit |
| Overall Fruit Quality | Baseline (Historical Avg) | Higher Quality |
| Season Benchmark | 53 Years of Prior Seasons | Largest Production in 53 Years |
Results represent net gain over prior years' historical average values — not a side-by-side control field comparison. Reported by Sunburst Citrus, Bakersfield, California, 2023.
Crop: Certified Organic Oranges · Grove Size: 100 acres · Technology: Kyminasi Fruits™
Benchmark: Net gain over prior years' historical average · Headline: Largest production in 53 years
What makes this case study extraordinary is the benchmark used: not a side-by-side control field, but the grove's own 53-year historical record. A 53% increase in fruit per tree over every prior season on record — combined with fruit that is 20–30% larger — isn't just a good year. It's a landmark result that redefines what this farm is capable of producing. For growers in California's competitive organic citrus market, where yield per acre and fruit grade determine profitability, Kyminasi Fruits™ delivered on both dimensions simultaneously.

KR Citrus in Porterville, California grows both navel and Valencia orange cultivars. The owner installed the Kyminasi Plants Crop Booster™ to test whether KPCB could accelerate development and bring his new one-year-old orange trees to maturity sooner — compressing the years it normally takes young citrus trees to reach productive canopy size.
Crop: Navel & Valencia Oranges · Tree age (KPCB): 1 year · Comparison: Neighbor's 2-year-old untreated trees
Result: 100% faster growth rate — 1-yr KPCB trees surpassed 2-yr control trees after only 6 weeks of KPCB watering
The KR Citrus result is one of the most visually intuitive case studies in the Kyminasi library: a tree that is literally one year younger — having received only six weeks of KPCB-treated water — physically surpassing trees that have had two full growing seasons of conventional irrigation. It's a comparison any grower can immediately understand and value. For citrus operations making new plantings, the potential to compress the unproductive establishment period by a year or more represents a meaningful acceleration of return on investment.

The Kyminasi® Crop Booster™ was installed on 1.5 hectares of a tangerine grove at La Calera Farm in Chincha, Peru in December 2019. The tangerine seedlings were approximately one month old when the trial began. By the 26-day mark, measurable differences in growth rate, canopy development, height, and leaf color were already clearly visible between the KPCB-treated and control trees.
| Measurement | Control Tangerine Trees | 🍊 KPCB Tangerine Trees |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Growth | Slower and flowered later | Faster, flowered earlier, and more leaves — after 26 days of treatment |
| Increase in Growth Rate | 0% | +30% |
| Increase in Height | 0 cm | +5 cm |
| Leaf Color | Lighter green | Brighter green |
| Tree Health (Leaf Pigment) | No brighter pigment — less healthy | Brighter pigment — healthier trees |
Crop: Tangerine Trees · Grove: 1.5 hectares (3.75 acres) · Seedling age at trial start: ~1 month
Key result: +30% growth rate, +5 cm height, earlier flowering — all within 26 days of KPCB treatment
The La Calera trial is one of the earliest-stage KPCB citrus trials on record — starting with seedlings only one month old. The fact that measurable, multi-variable differences (growth rate, height, flowering timing, and leaf health) appeared within just 26 days of treatment suggests KPCB acts at the cellular level from the very beginning of the plant's life cycle. For tangerine growers managing young orchards, these results point to a fundamentally more productive establishment phase — one that could translate into earlier first harvests and a stronger long-term yield curve.

The Kyminasi Plants Crop Booster™ was installed on a lemon tree field at Trapani Farm in northern Peru. The farm's own agronomist monitored the trial, tracking foliage health, pest incidence, and root development across KPCB-treated and control trees over a 12-week observation period.
Documented by: Farm agronomist · Foliage improvement: 9 weeks · Pest reduction: 16% → 11% screwworm incidence in 12 weeks (−31%)
Additional finding: Larger, more developed root systems in KPCB trees vs. control
The Trapani Farm trial stands out because it captures three distinct, independently valuable outcomes in a single field: improved foliage health, measurable pest resistance, and stronger root development. Each of these outcomes has direct commercial implications — healthier leaves mean more photosynthetic capacity; fewer pests mean lower pesticide costs and less crop loss; larger roots mean better resilience to drought and stress. Together, they paint a picture of a fundamentally stronger tree — one that is better equipped to produce more fruit, more consistently, over a longer productive lifespan.

The Kyminasi Plants Crop Booster™ was installed on a field of Tahiti lime plants in Colombia. At harvest, the KPCB-treated field was compared against the untreated control field across yield, plant vigor, foliage color, tillering, and pest and disease presence — delivering results across every measured dimension.
Yield increase: +55% vs. control field · Pest incidence: Zero in KPCB field · Additional observations: Greater vigor, more intense green color, greater tillering
The Colombia lime trial is notable for the breadth of its results: a 55% yield increase paired with zero pests or diseases and improvements across every quality indicator observed. This combination — more fruit, healthier plants, and no pest pressure — is the outcome of a plant system operating at an elevated level of biological efficiency. For lime growers in Colombia managing pest pressure and yield variability, KPCB delivered on all fronts simultaneously.
