- Yields better results comparable to pesticide treatment
- Results in no chemical contamination of the soil.
- Effectively sterilize the soil surface
- Leave no residue on the produce.
Ozone Agricultural Applications from Farday:
- For soil fumigation to remove contaminations treatment of irrigation water to correct the pH level and Hydrogen sulphide more specifically in hydroponics to bgoost the yield levels.
- Fumigation of potatoes in cold storage for improving the cooking quality.
- Fumigation of potatoes in cold storage for improving the cooking quality.
- For washing the fruits and vegetables to remove the pesticide residues.
- For superficial removal of fungi and bacteria on the dried spices before grinding them into powder.
