Non-Thermal Seed Treatment Solutions for Organic Farming Systems

Ensuring high-quality, pathogen-free seed is essential for organic crop production, yet organic standards limit conventional chemical treatments. This seminar highlights emerging non-thermal, non-chemical sanitation methods—particularly pulsed electric fields (PEF) and ozone-based technologies. Participants will learn how PEF disrupts microbial cells through electroporation, and how ozone provides rapid microbial inactivation without harmful residues. Both approaches show […]
