WORLDS BEST INNOVATION
IN PHYSIOLOGICAL CALCIUM DEFICIENCY
ON LEAFY VEGETABLE CROPS!
The worlds best method against tipburn in lettuce:
to grow plants in negative DIF conditions!
Under negative DIF conditions, tipburn decreases, reducing or eliminating the need for chemicals to prevent diseases and pests. This method can be replicated worldwide, making it suitable for organic agriculture and vertical farming. It also conserves energy, as higher nighttime temperatures coincide with shorter periods.

This project was financed by the Estonian Agricultural Registers and Information Board, with assistance from Jaagumäe Agro LLC and the Jogeva Plant Breeding Institute. Third discovery: (third innovative idea): Effective microorganisms (EM) improve the quality of tomato transplants because they remain compact with greater stem diameter (Margit Olle discovery, not a patent, unfortunately).

2010 – 2012. Finding suitable organic fertilizers for vegetables. This project was financed by the Estonian Agricultural Registers and Information Board and self-employed Galina Rehkli.
2008 – 2009. Increase of research capacity of plant breeding. Funding from Ministry of Education and Science in Estonia. Project leader: Mati Koppel, project participant: Margit Olle.
2000 – 2001. Post doc project. Funding from Ministry of Education and Science in Estonia. Discoveries by Dr. Margit Olle: 1. (first innovative idea): Plants were grown under a far-red filter, which filters out much of far-red light. Far-red light is responsible for the elongation of plants. When grown under a far-red filter to remove much of the far-red light then plants remain more compact (knowledge from Japan). With far-red filter plants contain more Calcium and show fewer Ca deficiency symptoms (Margit Olle discovery, not a patent, unfortunately). 2. (second innovative idea): Negative DIF is when the night temperature is higher than the day temperature. In such condition’s plants stay more compact (Roar Moe from Norway have lots of papers about it). Under negative DIF conditions plants contain more Calcium and there are fewer Ca deficiency symptoms on plants (Margit Olle discovery, not a patent, unfortunately). Organized (main responsible person) in 2001 (05.09 - 08.09) in castle Sagadi (Estonia) NJF seminar No. 329 titled “New sights in vegetable production”. Revised articles for scientific Journal: NJF-UTREDNING / NJFRAPPORT No. 329 titled “New sights in vegetable production”.
1994 – 1995. Cabbage agrotechnology and variety comparison. Estonian Science Foundation. The best cabbage varieties and technologies were chosen. Project scientific responsible person: Margit (Kleemann) Olle.
