Why PRO rootstocks
More on every stem.
A PRO rootstock puts a stronger root system under the variety you already grow — so the plant produces more, feeds more easily, and stands up better to stress. Same crop, bigger harvest.
At least 10% more — and often much more
Trialled side by side with Natal Briar in Kenya and Ecuador, 39 of 45 varieties produced more stems on ProTatu — a median of +20.4%. On the farm, ProRoot growers see at least 10% more, counted stem by stem.
The benefit of CO₂, without the investment
The extra vigour works like CO₂ enrichment — more growth, more kilos — but it comes from the root, not from capital equipment. No enrichment plant to build or run.
Healthier, less-stressed plants
Because the crop establishes and feeds more easily, it carries less stress — and growers report fewer stress-related problems, including reduced Agrobacterium. A field observation across many farms, not a laboratory claim.
A faster cycle
On ProTatu the cycle runs faster — on average about a week per six months — so the plant comes back to harvest sooner.
The logical upgrade from Natal Briar
Keep the varieties your buyers want; change only what’s beneath them. Reliable, in production for years, backed by 40 years of PRO breeding.
Feed the extra crop: a plant producing more eats more — adjust the recipe to match and it delivers. See the proof →
