The project will develop and apply a completely new technology based on the production of nanoscale gas bubbles into the irrigation water. Practical pilot-testing will be executed in three production facilities involved in the EIP Innovation Group. Technology has an increasing effect on the growth of plants and berries. Increased growth will be observed either as larger size and/or faster growth rate. At the same time, the growth of microbes and biofilms in the irrigation water and irrigation systems will decrease. The project helps food business operators in the green transition and in reducing the chemical load and minimizing the carbon footprint by switching to the chemical-free technology. In addition, production hygiene and product shelf-life will be improved.The project and the overall solution developed in this project will have a positive impact on the ability of primary production to succeed, despite of the climate change and varying weather conditions.
