UV light can effectively reduce Human pathogen load in agricultural surface water Sources
A web application is developed to assist growers in decision-making related to the on-farm implementation of UV technologies for agricultural water treatment. The observations were used to design an online tool for growers to calculate the predicted reduction of generic Escherichia coli using a UV-C device based on the %UVT of their water source.
360-degree UV exposure can be transformative in improving the safety and quality of fresh produce
