In bulb cultivation and arable farming, a successful harvest and its subsequent storage are dependent on many factors. The quality of the surrounding air plays a very important role. Air quality can be greatly improved with the natural gas ozone.
Conditioning air quality within food processing and storage areas is key to a successful business. Ozone purifies the air free of various undesirable substances, such as ethylene, for example. Agrozone is able to control and monitor natural and safe low ozone concentrations, guaranteeing you a clean and safe working environment.
The purifying effect of ozone has been recognised for many years. It is used in areas such as the processing and storage of products like food and flower bulbs. Ozone (O3) is a natural gas composed entirely of oxygen (O₂). This molecule comprises three oxygen atoms, making it richer in oxygen than O₂.
Ozone is ideally suited by oxidising unwanted substances originating from stored products, such as ethylene gas. The outcome is improved air quality. The following is a brief explanation of what ozone can do for your arable farm business.
Water and/or air purification on your arable farm are carried out as follows:
Results from research carried out by Agrozone and the University of Wageningen have shown that ozone (O₃) also increases crop volume in cultivation. As the water is richer in oxygen, crops appear to be better nourished, leading to a more vital crop and a richer harvest.
