UV-C Light: Enhancing Cannabis Post-Harvest Quality and Yield
UV-C radiation is a type of ultraviolet light that has a wavelength of 200 to 280 nanometers. It is used to kill microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and mold. UV-C radiation is also effective at inactivating spores, which are dormant forms of microorganisms that can germinate and cause spoilage.
Why Agronomists should Consider Mitigating their Dependence on Chemical Sprays, and Deploy UV-C and Far UV.
Agronomists, as the guardians of our food supply, have a great responsibility to ensure the health and safety of the crops they cultivate. One powerful tool that they can utilize to achieve this goal is 222nm far-UV technology. Far-UV technology is a powerful and effective method of sterilizing surfaces and environments and has been shown to be highly effective in killing pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. This is particularly important in agronomy, as these pathogens can cause serious damage to crops and can lead to reduced yields and increased costs.
