Plant protection without residue

Ozone (O3) is a natural gas that is characterised by its oxidising and devitalising effect, depending on the amount used. The key advantage is that after it kills pathogens, there is no residue, because the gas is converted into oxygen. Low concentrations of ozone dissolved in water can be sprayed to eliminate many kinds of harmful organisms that live on plants, including fungi, bacteria or viruses.

This does not lead to the emergence of resistant strains. A new sprayer made by Mowat looks to help with this. According to the company it combines a low volume sprayer with an air-assisted boom and a patented generator for ozonised water. Mowat claims the movement of air ensures even distribution on plants for optimum coverage and protection with zero residue. Mowat is designed for use in orchards and vineyards.
