Water testing is the basis for your decision whether or not to condition your spray water. The purpose of conditioning water is to maximize the effectiveness of the pesticide.
Even when water characteristics are ideal, most pesticides break down in water, over time, through a chemical process called hydrolysis. Some break down slowly, while others become inactive within a few hours. The pH of the tank water often has a dramatic effect on the breakdown process. What we need to know is how long products can stay in the tank before undergoing changes that can impact efficacy.

Sterilization is a need or even a necessity, especially in greenhouses. But why?
Agriculture in greenhouses is intensive and confined to a specific environment exposed to stress due to the excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers and the lack of diversity in the adopted crops to include specific types such as cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplant, and strawberries.
While sterilization with methyl bromide and other chemical pesticides was prohibited due to its proven damage to the environment, especially to groundwater and the ozone layer, it was necessary to resort to other alternatives to compensate for these essential substances.
Continuing the seventy-year journey towards better agriculture, it was necessary for Debanne Agri to set out on a new path in the soil Sterilization domain. Its destination was a selection of leading companies in the production of organic materials, including the Canadian company ATOMES.
